Offering a taste of beauty’s future, this global event spans emerging trends in skin care, hair care, fragrance, color cosmetics, nutricosmetics and more.
By: Happi Staff
In-cosmetics Global, a leading event for personal care ingredients, returns to Paris next month. From April 14–16, this show, held at Paris Expo Porte de Versailles, will offer the global beauty supply chain a critical opportunity to stay ahead in an increasingly competitive market.
With the industry’s future growth expected to be driven by innovation, the show will connect brands, formulators, R&D experts, cosmetic scientists, manufacturers and suppliers, showcasing the full spectrum of new and established beauty ingredients, formulations and services to support the entire “lab to launch” journey, according to show organizers.
As global beauty executives increasingly focus on the true value of products in terms of efficacy, sensory experience, wellness and sustainability, the 2026 edition of the show will provide a platform to explore emerging trends across skincare, hair care, fragrance, color cosmetics, nutricosmetics and more. Show organizers report that leading brand, including The Estée Lauder Companies, Cosmax, Chanel and K18 will take part alongside more than 1,000 exhibitors. Some 14,000 attendees from across the globe are expected to attend.
“The beauty industry is at a pivotal point, expanding beyond traditional personal care into wellness, inner beauty and nutraceutical innovation. Brands are under immense pressure to move faster from concept to commercialization, and in-cosmetics Global sits at the heart of the value chain,” said Andy Mather, event director of in-cosmetics Global.
Reflecting the industry’s evolution towards holistic beauty and wellness, in-cosmetics Global will debut the Inner Beauty Zone, bridging cosmetics and nutraceuticals as it expands into the fast-growing nutricosmetics landscape. Sponsored by KSM-66 and launched in partnership with The Good Pill Co, the Inner Beauty Zone will showcase innovations in ingestible beauty supplement ingredients including vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and collagen solutions, fortified foods, drinks and shakes.
This category is experiencing strong growth: Globally, 41% of consumers use beauty supplements, with 27% of US consumers taking them regularly, and nearly half of non-users (43%) expressing interest in trying them. Bringing nutricosmetic ingredients to life, the new Taste Bar will let visitors experience beauty-from-within concepts in finished product samples. The inner beauty and nutricosmetics theme will be further supported by expert-led content exploring scientific and commercial advances in inside-out beauty.
Fragrance remains one of the fastest-growing personal care sectors globally, with McKinsey projecting 8% annual growth from 2024-2030, driven by younger consumer demographics and rising demand for high-end niche fragrances. Reflecting this momentum, this year’s event will reveal an expanded Fragrance Zone, including the all-new Scent Bar, an immersive hub designed to demonstrate how scent can elevate consumer routines into rituals and enhance product perception and premiumization. The Scent Bar will showcase products from leading aroma innovators.
In response to growing demand for production partners, the event will have a new Contract Manufacturer Zone, bringing leading contract manufacturers together in one dedicated space. This zone will help founders and brand leaders streamline supplier discovery and accelerate product development.
This year will see industry powerhouses such as BASF, Lubrizol, Symrise, Lucas Meyer Cosmetics by Clariant, Givaudan Active Beauty, Ashland, Evonik and Croda take part alongside 130 first-time exhibitors entering the global beauty ingredients market. The new and emerging innovators will include Albert Invent, Palsgaard, Applied StemCell, Pilot Chemical, Europelab, Catalynt Solutions, Inc., Nordic Bioproduct, Plinius Labs, Pharmalinea, Bolt and more.
With sustainability a core focus of the show, the Sustainability Zone offers a collection of features on the show floor, including the Pavilion, the Display and Theatre, and the Forum, offering attendees a 360-degree, comprehensive view of eco-friendly and sustainable initiatives in personal care.
New for 2026, the Upcycling Hub, located within the Sustainability Zone, will spotlight suppliers transforming by-products into high-performance cosmetic ingredients. Members of the Circular Cosmetic Collective, a group of scientists and ingredient manufacturers actively reshaping sourcing through upcycled and circular solutions, will be present, including Kaffe Bueno, Lignopure GmbH, Origin by Ocean, Swedish Algae Factory AB and The Upcycled Beauty Company. The zone will demonstrate how circular innovation helps brands meet demand for responsible beauty while creating new opportunities for differentiation and storytelling.
The Display area will present the industry’s most inspiring initiatives achieved through responsible sourcing and green chemistry, featuring companies including Provital, S.A., Cargill, Green Oleo, Evolved By Nature, Origin by Ocean and Swedish Algae Factory AB. Further, the Theatre, with a program curated by Dr Barbara Olioso, founder of GreenChem Finder, will deliver focused sessions with actionable insights from The Body Shop, BioTara, AAK, Sonneborn and other leaders in sustainable beauty.
The Sustainability Zone’s Forum will deliver keynote sessions on responsible product design, ingredient lifecycles, microbiome science, product decarbonization and more with insights from the leaders of Ecocert, Schrödinger, FairWild Foundation and others.
Sponsored by Ashland and partnered with Mintel, the Innovation Zone returns as the global industry’s leading showcase for new cosmetic ingredients. This year, it sets a new benchmark with nearly 250 newly launched ingredients, many of which will be revealed to the market for the first time. All featured innovations will be contenders for the prestigious Innovation Zone Best Ingredient Award, presented at the official awards ceremony on the evening of April 14. Full details of this year’s Innovation Zone will be revealed soon.
Visitors to the 2026 event will gain access to more than 230 educational sessions, covering scientific research, market intelligence, formulation best practices, sustainability and testing and regulatory developments. Some of the key learning stages will include the Marketing Trends Theatre with consumer insights and market forecasting.
The technical seminars, sponsored by Azelis, will offer in-depth cosmetic science and ingredient innovation sessions, and the Formulation Lab, sponsored by Brenntag, will offer closed workshops for R&D professionals to refine hands-on skills.
The R&D Tours, exclusive and guided innovation walks, will feature companies Mibelle Biochemistry, Natura-Tec and Symrise to explore advances in exosomes, longevity and skin sensitivity. In addition, the Testing & Regulation Forum will offer 11 expert-led sessions. To see the full 2026 show program and details on sessions, visit the website here.
Additional experiential areas across the show will include the Makeup Bar, a boutique-style space showcasing the latest pigment and color cosmetics technologies from companies such as Eastman, IMCD France, Elementis and others.
With half of global consumers conducting extensive research before purchase, product value is increasingly shaped by sensory experience, functionality and design. The Sensory Bar will offer visitors an interactive space to explore the feel, performance and sensorial impact of ingredients and formulations, featuring innovations from Barentz, IFF and others.
Said Mather, “in-cosmetics Global supports innovation from lab to launch, by connecting science, ingredients, formulation expertise and manufacturing – all in one global platform. Our focus for 2026 is on helping businesses develop smarter products, accelerate launches and drive sustainable growth in an evolving market.”
