in-cosmetics Latin America 2026 opens in São Paulo

The in-cosmetics Latin America 2026 event begins this Wednesday at the Expo Center Norte in São Paulo. The exhibition brings together ingredient suppliers and professionals from research, development, marketing, and pharmacy to showcase raw materials and emerging trends in the beauty and personal care industry.

Key themes for the event include advancements in biotechnology applied to cosmetics, the intersection of neuroscience and product development, sustainability, clean beauty, and healthy longevity. The event highlights the growing role of biotechnology, which the OECD projects could expand from US$ 1.6 trillion in 2024 to US$ 4 trillion by 2030. In the cosmetic sector, this includes a focus on plant-based alternatives and fermentation processes for skincare ingredients.

Exhibitors such as Dinaco and Safic-Alcan will present various innovations, including sensory experimentation spaces and specific active ingredients like Ectoin® natural, RM-Oleo PDRN, and Cherry Necta.
