Description
This module will enable students to understand the importance of innovation in a sector as dynamic as cosmetics.
This environment is governed by regulatory constraints, innovations in packaging, innovations in formulation, and also in ingredients.
The whole thing is also governed by the expectations of increasingly demanding consumers.
It is therefore essential for these future graduates to understand the ins and outs of innovation in cosmetics and to know how to implement it while respecting certain criteria.
A project will be proposed to students: Presentation of the project in groups and establishment of guidelines for its implementation.
