Jay Ansell, Ph.D., vice president of cosmetic programs at the Personal Care Products Council, will discuss changes and challenges in cosmetic regulatory fundamentals and the potential they hold for product development during Beauty Accelerate 2022.

A fundamental shift in the underlying principles of cosmetic regulation has occurred in recent years, posing challenges to product developers. More specifically, regulations have shifted toward the hazards ingredients may pose rather than risk. Some proposed regulations would even ban materials based solely on their presence in the environment.

At Beauty Accelerate 2022, Jay Ansell, Ph.D., of the Personal Care Products Council (PCPC), will explore the impact of the changing regulatory environment on cosmetic product development and the advocacy around science-based public policy during his keynote presentation. Attendees will walk away with a clearer understanding of today's cosmetic regulatory landscape and what that means for product development and safety, as well as the science that drives this dynamic industry.
