THE SCIENCE OF BEAUTY: BIOTECHNOLOGY, BREAKTHROUGH INGREDIENTS & THE FUTURE OF INNOVATION
2:00PM – 2:45PM | LOCATION: COSMOPACK STAGE EXHIBIT FLOOR | FREE
The future of beauty is being built in the lab — where biotech meets breakthrough formulation. In this forward-thinking session, Faye Brookman moderates a conversation with two pioneering minds redefining beauty through science: Dr. Robin Smith of Exoceuticals, a leader in exosome-based skincare innovation, and Ron Robinson, cosmetic chemist and founder of BeautyStat, the brand behind one of the industry ’s most viral ingredient-driven success stories.
Together, they ’ll unpack:
• The rise of biotechnology and its real-world impact on skin health and product efficacy
• How to balance clinical performance with clean beauty expectations
• What’s next in ingredient innovation, from lab-grown actives to sustainable sourcing
• The critical role of transparency, trust, and data-backed claims in earning the modern consumer
This is the panel for brand builders, formulators, and founders looking to innovate with purpose — and stay ahead of what science is making possible in beauty.
