🧬 Could precision fermentation change the way we develop cosmetic ingredients?
The next wave of active ingredients may be shaped by biotechnology.

Join us for our upcoming IFSCC webinar, “The Next Wave of Active Ingredients: The Power of Precision Fermentation”, with Anthony Jay, Chief Technology Officer at Eclipse Ingredients.

Jay will introduce synthetic biology and precision fermentation as a biomanufacturing platform, exploring how the technology works, why it is gaining traction, where it is headed, and what it means for the future of ingredient development.

With expertise spanning microbial expression systems, product development, scale-up strategy, CDMO partnerships and regulatory ex*****on, Jay brings a practical perspective on taking biotechnology from strain development through to commercial manufacture.

🏆 We are delighted to announce that the Society of Cosmetic Chemists (Malaysia) has been awarded the 2026 Society Education Prize in honor of Lester Conrad.

The Society’s application was selected as the one that most strongly embodied the spirit and guidelines of the Award, recognising its commitment to advancing education within the cosmetic science community.

🎓 As part of the prize, the IFSCC will support the Malaysian Society’s educational efforts with up to CHF 8,000 over three years, helping bring its proposed educational programme to life.

The award will be officially presented during the Opening Ceremony of the IFSCC 2026 Perth Congress on Monday, 28 September.

🌏 This achievement is a wonderful example of how IFSCC Member Societies contribute to education, knowledge sharing, and the growth of our global cosmetic science community.

Congratulations to the Society of Cosmetic Chemists (Malaysia) on this well-deserved recognition!

✨ Meet the 2026 Young Scientist Essay Award winner!

What does it mean to be a young scientist in cosmetic science today?

For Rafael Sánchez Becerra, it definitely means looking beyond technical complexity and asking how science can create meaningful, sustainable impact.

The 2026 Young Scientist Essay Award in honor of Maison G. de Navarre recognises Rafael - and his essay “Migration: Skin Under Exposome Switch. A new model for personalization” - for his approach to cosmetic science, combining formulation expertise with a strong focus on sustainable business growth, scientific outreach, and the role of innovation in shaping the future of our industry.

Originally from Maracaibo, Venezuela, Rafael is also a passionate advocate for Latin American innovation, working to bring the region’s scientific potential to a global stage.

🏆 First awarded in 1988, the Maison G. de Navarre Young Scientist Essay Award gives a young cosmetic scientist the opportunity to attend an IFSCC Congress.�The 2026 winner receives travel, accommodation and registration support of up to CHF 5,000 to attend the IFSCC Congress in Perth.

Congratulations, Rafael! Thank you for reminding us that the future of cosmetic science is not only about developing new solutions, but also about making science more accessible, sustainable and connected to the world around us.

🏆 Scientific excellence takes many forms. So does recognition.

Advancing cosmetic science also means celebrating the people, ideas and communities that make progress possible.

That’s why the IFSCC Awards Programme recognises contributions across our global community, from emerging scientists and distinguished contributors to Member Societies creating opportunities for education and knowledge sharing.

🏅 Through awards, prizes and programmes, we support scientific achievement, encourage emerging talent and create opportunities for knowledge to travel across borders.

From individual recognition to initiatives dedicated to Member Societies, each programme reflects a different way of contributing to the advancement of cosmetic science.

And at the IFSCC Congress - this year in Perth, Australia - outstanding fundamental and applied research takes centre stage, with recognition for podium and poster presentations, as well as the reinstated Host Society Award.

🔬 Your research could be next and your contribution could make an impact!

Every scientific discovery has the potential to inspire new ideas, challenge existing knowledge and shape the future of cosmetic science, but only if it reaches the wider community.

That's the purpose of the IFSCC Magazine đź“°

Published quarterly, the Magazine brings together peer-reviewed research from cosmetic scientists around the world, creating a trusted space where innovation, scientific rigour and knowledge sharing come together. It also serves as a platform for researchers to contribute their work and become part of the global scientific conversation.

🔍 Let's explore why it's essential educational resource, why peer review matters and how it helps advance cosmetic science through shared knowledge.

🌎 Building new connections, strengthening our global community.

As part of the VI Latin American Congress on Alternative Methods to the Use of Animals, Silvia H. Pérez, IFSCC's Zone Leader Coordinator and Praesidium representative for Argentina, showcased the work of the Asociación Centroamericana de Ciencias Cosméticas ACACC at the University of Costa Rica.

The presentation was an opportunity to introduce researchers, professors, students, and industry professionals to the IFSCC, highlighting the many ways they can become involved in our global cosmetic science community - from participating in educational initiatives and scientific activities to submitting research for future IFSCC Congresses and publications.

By fostering new collaborations and encouraging scientific exchange across regions, the IFSCC continues to support researchers at every stage of their careers and strengthen the future of cosmetic science worldwide.
