Waterless Beauty: Making Products Better
Jim Perry, President and CEO, TaikiUSA
Most consumers like the idea of sustainability but do not like the products that are sustainable. Making better-performing products that are also sustainable will drive consumer purchases and move our sustainable future forward, faster.
