Major name brands and manufacturers are set to lead our upcoming conference into the huge potential of the skin’s microbiota, Cosmetics Design Summit: Skin Microbiome Innovation.

Speaking on why the industry is moving towards a new skin routine, and why cleansers that respect the microbiome and creams that feed it are the future for skin care, Audrey Gueniche, Senior Clinical Expert, L’Oréal Research & Innovation, will offer exclusive insights.

Alongside this, Valérie Cenizo, Skin Biology Manager, L’Occitane en Provence, will speak on the secret relationship between the microbiota and skin health, revealing discoveries made when a 3D skin model was colonised with uncultured, unselected skin microbiota, versus a single commensal bacteria, Staphylococcus epidermidis.
