Welcome to this 33rd edition of ZOOM, a magazine dedicated to preclinical trials and clinical evaluation in cosmetics.
The global cosmetics industry in constantly evolving, influenced by economic, environmental and political factors – since these balances seems to be at the heart of the American turmoil today – but also technological and cultural. Beyond the specific regulations sometimes used as a political tool to limit the entry of a market, politics has been invited since January 2025 in cosmetics with the possible modifications of custom taxes on assets and finished products. What impact will this new situation have on the exchange of services and analysis technologies? It’s still early to say, but it is likely that this «foot in the anthill» will change the behavior of testing laboratories, large or small.
For beauty professionals and experts, it is therefore essential to assess weak signals in the market and anticipate these future trends. Today, more than ever, innovation and scientific rigor are at the heart of the development of skin and hair care: understanding the mechanisms of action, adapting to expectations and guaranteeing the effectiveness of formulas are the major challenges.
At Skinobs, we focus all our attention on deciphering testing trends, exploring the latest technological advances and offering you a clear and documented vision of evaluation methods and their evolutions. Saving you time and providing you with a comprehensive and independent overview of assessment solutions is of paramount importance to us.
In this edition, we are pleased to present a thematic file on the evaluation of makeup. This dossier explores the different facets of makeup: its history, its innovations, as well as the evaluation methods and associated claims. We highlight the clinical evaluation of makeup, which guarantees its tolerance and effectiveness, thanks to rigorous testing protocols. You’ll also discover exclusive interviews with industry experts, who share their insights into the challenges ahead. Scientific articles enrich this dossier, offering a complete overview of the world of make-up product testing and its contemporary challenges.
We hope that this new ZOOM will feed your curiosity and inspire your thinking about the many facets of future evaluation of your products.
