DSM Personal Care is one of the main sponsors at this year's scientific congress IFSCC 2018, held from September 18-21 in Munich.
The IFSCC offers a perfect ground to gain new insights in the field of cosmetics, as well as networking opportunities with other people within the personal care industry. Under the overall theme, "Cosmetics: Science for Beauty and Lifestyle", this year, the IFSCC Congress will explore what modern society wants in terms of beauty and lifestyle.
The overall theme is fully in line with the recent launch of the skincare ingredient BEL-EVEN and the roll out of holistic formulation concepts enhanced with sun and hair care ingredients. DSM focused their launches and scientific research in 2018 to create cosmetic active ingredients and formulations that support people in maintaining their beauty regimes in times of stress.
As an industry, DSM believes to have a responsibility to provide effective personal care ingredients that save precious time, while ensuring the needs of skin, hair care and sun protection are being met – even when they are exposed to psychological and external stresses.
What can you expect from DSM at this year's IFSCC Congress 2018?
Meet the DSM scientists at our booth E06 to learn more about the art of rational design of skin care ingredients, aided by molecular modelling. You can also find out more about their latest research in skin biology and gain deeper insights into how they use sophisticated technologies, such as mass spec for proteomics, to underscore scientific approach.
You'll also have the opportunity to connect with leading scientists in sun care, who will fill you in on consumer habits when it comes to applying sunscreens – and get insights about how these behaviours might be influenced by a better sensory.
Scientists in Sun and Skin Care segments began last year with dedicated research to further investigate blue light activity in the skin, derived from both visible sunlight and electronic devices. At the IFSCC you can meet with them in person and learn more about their latest findings.
Overall, DSM will contribute to this year's IFSCC conference with ten posters and one exclusive talk. These scientific researches will give you insights on how the different competences enable DSM to develop active ingredients across all application areas.
DSM will present different case studies that show how they identify and characterise relevant biological pathways for skin to design effective solutions according to different skin needs.
Furthermore, DSM dedicates their research in how to develop and apply new methodologies to measure and visualise the effects of their ingredients. Much of this work has been realised due to extensive network of collaboration with external partners and universities.
