Formula Botanica announced as in-cosmetics Global indie beauty partner

IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT REGARDING IN-COSMETICS:

in-cosmetics Global in Barcelona has now been postponed until 30 June – 2 July 2020.
Nothing substantial will change, other than the date. Formula Botanica will still be the show’s official indie beauty partner and we look forward to delivering all of the workshops, talks and events as scheduled. For the most up to date information, please check the in-cosmetics website.

Formula Botanica is delighted to announce its partnership with in-cosmetics Global for the 2020 show in Barcelona. in-cosmetics Global is the world’s largest trade show for personal care ingredients and Formula Botanica will be this year’s official Indie Beauty Partner, offering exciting natural formulation workshops and celebrating all things indie beauty.

As the world’s largest online formulation school, Formula Botanica is delighted to be representing the entire indie beauty community, as well as our students and graduates at this prestigious event. in-cosmetics Global brings together over 800 exhibitors of ingredients, fragrances, lab equipment, testing and regulatory solutions, as well as over 12,000 cosmetic manufacturers from over 115 countries. It is an exciting and vibrant show, full of opportunities for indie beauty entrepreneurs, and will take place between 30th of June and July 2nd this year.

Shona Thomson, Marketing Manager for in-cosmetics Global, says:

“For several years, in-cosmetics Global has recognised an unprecedented increase in the presence of indie brands and, the incredibly successful launch of our first ever Indie Trail in 2019 is testament to how influential and important this area of the industry has become. Furthering our support and acknowledgement of this dramatic shift in the market, we couldn’t be happier to officially partner with Formula Botanica for our 30th birthday.

 

This year’s educational programme will benefit from three insightful and informative Formulation Lab training sessions with Formula Botanica’s Head of Research & Formulation, Timi Racz, which will each be fantastic additions to our existing line-up. Timi’s understanding of organic ingredients and formulations is second-to-none, making these sessions unmissable for small brands looking to widen their ingredients understanding and perhaps break into new areas.”

The Indie Beauty Trail

This makes the show accessible for indie beauty entrepreneurs and anyone wanting to start their own beauty brand. It is an ideal venue to network and research ingredients as well as gain inspiration for your brand. Formula Botanica is proud to be the official partner for this year’s Indie Beauty Trail at in-cosmetics Global.

in-cosmetics Global 2020 will take place in Barcelona from the 3oth of June to 2nd of July
