Wednesday 8 October - 9:30am: Breaking Taboos
What taboos are there in advertising today? Do communications in general and the beauty industry in particular go too far or not far enough? How do consumers react to “disturbing” ads? Does the beauty sector stand out? Or on the contrary, is it “conservative” in terms of images and meanings?
Monique WALHEM, CEO of the DRAFTFCB agency, Philippe Beaumont-Pagani, founder, head and artistic director of the CARE agency, and Carlin International Communication.
Moderator: Dominique Cuvillier, editor in chief of the web revue trendmark.fr

The 50 niche brands you will discover at the Zoom Cosmeeting space will be judged by the professional jury of the Beauty Challenger Awards. Forty-five beauty industry experts have evaluated and noted the potential of each of them, then selected four winners, from the categories of selective perfumery, spas and pharmacies. Be there on 6 October to discover, live, the winners of the highly awaited Beauty Challengers Awards 2008.
A true password to success for a niche brand, the Beauty Challenger Awards represent a unique competition in the world that is highly awaited by beauty profes-sionals. Among the 50 “zoomers,” young brands from the Zoom space, a jury of 45 beauty industry experts from all over the world determines the four prizewinners awarded for their creativity and the coherence of their marketing mix.
Organized by Beyond Beauty Paris, the Beauty Challenger Awards are a unique, attractive occasion for professionals to discover, in advance, the most wonderful emerging brands from all over the world. The jury members, who are the highest level representatives of department stores (Galeries Lafayettes, Bon Marché, etc), spas (Trianon Palace, etc), websites (aufeminin.com, etc), concept stores (Evody, etc), selective perfumery chains (Sephora), and the trade and consumer press as well, discover, in exclusivity, the new products from the international market.
Fabrice Petitcolin - Head of Le Printemps Department Store’s Beauty Collection – Beauty Challenger Awards Jury Member
“Our interest in going to the Beauty Challenger Awards is huge, because it allows us to discover, in advance, new brands. For brands, it’s also important because they are able to get their first feedback from distributors.”
Fabrice Petitcolin talks about being a member of the jury of the Beauty Challenger Awards and reveals his recommendations to niche brands on how to be referenced in a store such as Le Printemps.
In nail cosmetics as much as in face and body care, there is a demand for natural products. The German brand La Ric, an incontestable reference in the field, is presenting its line of up-market, corrosive-free, aromatherapy-inspired hand prod-ucts at Cosmeeting .
Ever since its founding in 1984, La Ric has made the difference in offering a line of products combining organic natural ingredients and pioneering techniques. With a concept based on a unique recipe of natural aromas and essential oils, the La Ric range is specialized in makeup and skincare for the hands and feet. It is present in 20 different countries through selective distribution networks, spas and beauty salons and other professional partners. In Paris, La Ric products are found among others at the Ritz Health Club, Alexandre Zouari, Carita, Le Bon Marché… and of course, at the Natural & Bio space.

This year, manufacturers and creative people from the beauty industry are getting together at the Beyond Beauty Lab, whose stand is located between the Creative and Ingredients trade shows, to unleash their imaginations while exploring the appeal of seduction through sound.
The relaxing music that propagates harmony during a treatment, the muffled noise of a powder compact being closed, the reassuring words of a beauty advisor, etc. Sound environment is a carefully thought out, carefully developed phenomenon. Beyond Beauty Lab 2008, these ideas are starting to take shape. Visitors will discover an exclusive field of expression where each participant (skincare and makeup labs, cosmetics industry subcontractors) will present their ideas and products in a place of harmony, with no false notes. Original, creative, offbeat, or avant-garde projects will be integrated into a contemporary reality that will sensitize visitors. They will be able to talk and share ideas with the idea people themselves and take part in various interactive events in a musical atmosphere.
Orchestrated in collaboration with Sandra Massonnat, head of the Ferling agency, which is specialized in creating and producing product concepts and services in the beauty and luxury industries, the Lab 2008 has already won over four partners:
BCM Cosmétique – Formulation laboratory and cosmetics product production facility - supported by Agence Ephémère
Laboratoire Alpol – Formulation, manufacturing and packaging of toiletries and skin-care products – in coordination with the Intuition agency
Strand Cosmetics Europe – Fragrance and skincare manufacturer
Bordes France – Cosmetic skincare formulation laboratory
Pave the way for a sensory sound journey, let a whole world of color speak out, get an entire world of green to resonate or compose a jingle based on skincare. Everyone is already hard at work on his or her “partition.”
Be at the heart of Creative on 6.7.8 October 2008, to experience the unique creativity of the Beyond Beauty Lab.

NOT TO BE MISSED! : Beyond Beauty Workshop : Parabens, and Then?
Published 26 august 2008
Should parabens be replaced in preserving cosmetics products?
Whether a health psychosis or not, the public’s stigmatizing of parabens calls for thinking about its use. The question of doing away with them in cosmetics formulations is being asked by all brands, more or less obviously. So how do we solve the problem of preserving – which is necessary – all toiletry and skincare products? Alternatives already exist today. Others open new avenues of exploration. Which ones? In the core of the “nature/chemistry” opposition, how do you find your own avenue of exploration?
For the first time, Beyond Beauty Paris is offering to enter into the core of an ex-change of ideas and analysis in the form of an exceptional workshop. One morning will be devoted to a summary of this important question, in the company of Michel Gutsatz, a brand strategy consultant and a toxicologist informed about the technological evolutions of the matter.
In the first half, Michel Gutsatz will provide a summary, using the latest studies and will analyze consumers’ new expectations in terms of “zero risk.” This information will cover cosmetics as well as the food sector, including the various fields in which preservatives are used.
From a scientific point of view, a toxicologist will attempt to bring about more certi-tude when it comes to the possible risks linked to parabens, but above all, when it comes to the new preservation possibilities opening up for manufacturers. He will present the “soft” alternatives, analyzing the list of authorized preservatives from the various certifying organizations (Cosmebio, Ecocert, BDIH, NaTrue). What, also, should we think of the technical alternatives, notably U.H.T. sterilization and freeze-drying?
All the elements essential in opening a constructive debate on the stakes involved in this problem and the possible alternatives will be provided as a follow-up to the second half the morning.
Fifty seats are available for this three-hour work session, so reserve yours now!

Food & Beauty, the new cosmetics dimension
Published the 26 June 2008
ood & Beauty, the space/event marking the encounter between the food and cosmetics industries will be at Beyond Beauty Paris and at SIAL. Using food as source of wellness and beauty is an ancestral concept that is today coming fully into its own. Both the food and beauty industries have completely understood this and have already invested in the “food-cosmetics” world, thus meeting new consumer codes.
SIAL and Beyond Beauty Paris, major professional and international events of the food and beauty industries, are for the first time giving high-profile exposure to this trend. Through exhibitions, workshops and talks, Food & Beauty, the common area of the two trade shows, will offer a complete range of products existing internationally while providing a forecast of the movement.
From 5 to 7 October 2008, in the heart of Cosmeeting - Beyond Beauty Paris
Hall 3, Paris-Nord Villepinte
From 19 to 23 October 2008, in the heart of SIAL
Hall 5B, Paris-Nord Villepinte
Since 1964, SIAL been the world’s largest global food marketplace event. Beyond Beauty Paris, with five expert trade shows, a talks series and four targeted summits, is the premier European beauty and wellness exhibition.
As such, these two professional events are totally justified in pooling their know-how together to help provide a substantial view of a trend that is being confirmed, the convergence towards a new type of product bringing together nutritional and cosmetic virtues.
Food & Beauty, the exhibition
Food and beauty products all in one: this exhibition is a witness to this trend and presents the references already existing on shelves in different countries, following precise themes: anti-age, complexion and radiance, hydration, slimming, detoxifica-tion, wellness and naturalness, vitality and energy, scrumptiousness and glamour. A workshop and guided visit will take place every day at this space along with a presentation by the Marketing Studio agency of a forecast using advertisements of products and concepts.
Food & Beauty, the talk
Moderated by Françoise Dasseto, director of White Spirit, Laurence Bethines, planning director of Team Creatif, and Jean-Marc Lévy, director of Marketing Studio, this talk will provide a complete overview of the trend, starting with the rundown on products and packaging: market codes, sales pitches, categories under development, distribution channels, international comparisons, etc.

ARTDECO, in the colors of spring
Published the 03 april 2008
The famous makeup brand, number 1 in Europe on the selective market, perfumeries and beauty salons, is showing its spring/summer colors with the New Romantic Look.
In a romantically inspired style of softness and seduction, the eyes, complexion and lips become radiant with new “satin and chiffon” nuances. The Mineral Powder Foundation for the complexion has the texture of a loose powder and the coverage of a classic foundation. While minerals such as zinc and iron protect the skin from environmental aggression, the impalpable texture merges with the skin and leaves a mat, even finish. The eyes are bright with slightly acidic spring-green colors ( No. 244), flowery parma (No. 286), antique pink (No. 99), chiffon (No. 212).
The eye shadows and blushes come in a new compact with a flowery, romantic design and are available in Trio or Quattro versions. The colors of the new look are rather easy to combine, modify or change as desired. For the lips, the all new Glossy Lip Care adds shine to lips thanks to shea butter, jojoba oil and vitamin E. Calming al-lantoin gives it a luscious texture that leaves the lips visibly smoother. This treatment lipsticks keeps lips from becoming dehydrated and is available in six colors.
