Beauty that evolves. Formulations that anticipate. Innovation that adapts.
At In-Cosmetics 2026, Safic-Alcan invites you to explore the next era of personal care through “Ever-Adaptive Beauty”, a forward-looking concept developed in collaboration with our ESG department.
As climate conditions intensify, demographics shift, and lifestyles transform, beauty must evolve. The question is no longer what works today, but what will work in 30 years ?
Join us at Booth 3G10 and step into the future of formulation & innovation.

A Stronger Global Footprint
- Safic-Alcan now operates 10 application laboratories worldwide, reinforcing our ability to design locally relevant, globally scalable solutions.
- With two major recent acquisitions in Latin America (Anders) and Asia-Pacific (Ingredients Plus), we have significantly strengthened our regional expertise, sourcing capabilities, and formulation agility.
This expansion strengthens our ability to anticipate regional regulatory and climate challenges, develop formulations tailored to local resources, accelerate go-to-market strategies, and deliver customized technical support worldwide, ensuring agility, relevance, and performance wherever beauty evolves.
From Paris to São Paulo, from Singapore to Johannesburg, innovation happens where beauty lives.
The Theme “Ever-Adaptive Beauty”
Beauty routines are shaped by environment, culture, resources, and age. To bring this vision to life, we imagined 5 personas, each located in a different region of the world.
Each persona represents how beauty needs could evolve over the next 30 years, and each one has their own Future Beauty Kit, featuring 5 innovative cosmetic formulations designed to address local constraints and emerging trends.
Intelligent Beauty Devices (In Collaboration with NUON)
Innovation goes beyond formulation.
In partnership with NUON, medical device and cosmetic packaging designers, we integrate smart technologies directly into beauty routines.
On our booth, discover intelligent devices including : needling, phototherapy, vibration systems, cooling & heating technologies, and skin-measuring diagnostic tools.
Each Beauty Kit will feature connected devices demonstrating how formulation + technology = adaptive performance.
