Strengthen the skin barrier and skin microbiome with CefiraProtect from CLR

CefiraProtect gives the skin resistant properties and promotes its resilience, a property that is in demand among an increasing number of consumers. The combination of fermentation and skin-strengthening effects makes this raw material an important component for innovative and probiotic skincare products.
Myramaze by Rahn – natural scalp care as a Cosmacon highlight at Sepawa 2024
Another outstanding raw material among the Cosmacon highlights at Sepawa 2024 is Myramaze by Rahn. This active scalp care ingredient comes from the leaf extract of Myrothamnus flabellifolia, a plant known for its revitalising properties. Myramaze offers flexible application in leave-on and rinse-off products and is in line with the increasing demand for holistic scalp care. Its natural origin and effectiveness make Myramaze an ideal active ingredient for holistic beauty care and natural cosmetics, which are becoming increasingly popular.
Sun care and make-up in one: Enhance U+Z from ADP
One of the multifunctional Cosmacon highlights of Sepawa 2024 is Enhance U+Z from ADP (Surfachem). This hybrid raw material combines UV filters and pigments that provide sun protection and make-up at the same time, thus combining protection and care.

Equally exciting is Green PDRN from Hyundai Bioland/Safic Alcan. This vegan and non-invasive PDRN active ingredient is based on sodium DNA and offers a gentle anti-ageing solution for intensive skin regeneration.
