The Society of Cosmetic Chemists (SCC) returned this week to New York for an on-site (and online) Scientific Meeting and Showcase. From Dec. 13-15, 2021, attendees will: reflect on the SCC’s 75 years; explore advances in natural, cleaner and milder formulations; focus on diversity in beauty; seek to advance makeup and hair care; learn new findings of cannabinoids (CBDs) and the skin microbiome; take a sustainability deep dive and more.
Henry Maso Keynote Award presentation: Today’s session opened with the Henry Maso Keynote Award presentation, “Historical Review of the Science of Skin,” given virtually by Howard Maibach, M.D., of the University of California, San Francisco, on the “remarkable evolution” of our industry. His lecture focused on the various forces that have driven this progress, and how one can safely intuit how these societal, marketing and scientific forces will influence the near-term future of the field for both business and scientific aspects.
