Digital technology makes it easier than ever to research and access information, so people want to understand much more about what’s in their products, and how and why ingredients work. At the same time, broader environmental, health, and societal concerns are playing a growing role in decision making. So from cruelty-free and vegan, to sustainably sourced and organic beauty ingredients , people also look for brands that align with their values.
Last year, DSM identified two key trends that reflect this phenomenon:
As we move into the 2020s, we can expect to see aspects of both these trends merge in the quest for Conscious Beauty Care. People will still want high-quality cosmetics products that work, but increasingly, they want to feel good about the choices they make as well as their looks.
Choosing wisely in a complex world
Few things in life are as straightforward as they may first seem though. For example, natural ingredients may appear more environmentally friendly, but when resources are limited, are they always the most sustainable option, or should we think about alternatives such as biotechnology? Similarly, could synthetic peptides be a more credible answer to the growing demand for vegan beauty products?
Exploring questions like these involves challenging current perspectives, and in our world of instant information, contradictory advice and even information overload it isn’t always easy to know who to trust. That’s why at DSM, we believe in empowering customers and consumers to make smart choices. One way we do this is by sharing our expertise and insights and by providing transparent information about our beauty and personal care ingredients. Another is by educating, informing and facilitating discussion in order to encourage new ways of thinking.
The DSM Personal Care & Aroma Ingredients team invites you at in-cosmetics global in Barcelona from March 31st to April 02nd 2020 at booth S36 to “Think differently, choose wisely”.
With our personal care solutions we aim to cut through the complexity of today’s cosmetic world by offering effective, transparent and sustainable beauty care ingredients that matter.
Here is what you can expect from us at this year’s in-cosmetics global show:
New innovations, as well as many of our cosmetic ingredients, will be featured at our Conscious Beauty Concept Store at our booth S36.

Here is our sneak preview:
Consumers are becoming both more knowledgeable and conscientious about the products they purchase. Still wanting high-quality cosmetics, while feeling they’re making good and ethical choices. To address this need for high-performance, bio-based alternatives to petrochemical solutions, DSM Personal Care & Aroma introduces TILAMAR® PDO with NØØVISTA. It is the first made-in-Europe cosmetic grade of 1.3-propanediol, 100% bio-sourced from non-GMO and palm oil-free feedstocks. TILAMAR® PDO with NØØVISTA is multifunctional ingredient with proven performance as a solvent, preservative booster, humectant and sensory enhancer suitable for all cosmetic applications.
Long lasting volume is one of the most desired benefits – yet one of the most complicated to achieve on Caucasian and Asian hair, especially together with care properties. To fill this gap, new studies on the innovative hyperbranched polymer TILAMAR® Boost 150 reveal proven benefits on different hair types. They prove long-lasting volume boost for up to 24 hours with an extra touch of care.
