ABSTRACT:
The interest in Organic and Natural Products in Personal Care continues to expand and grow. Packaged Facts projects that the U.S. natural and organic skin care, hair care and cosmetics market will reach $7.9 billion by 2009 from $5 billion in 2004. This may seem small when we consider that the Global personal care sector is about $150 billion in manufacturer sales (in 2004). If you consider the fact that natural and organic personal care is a segment growing at a 25% rate it takes on an entirely different meaning. The increasing movement to healthier lifestyles, coupled with consumers’ perception of possible carcinogenic effects of certain chemicals has encouraged consumers to look for alternative products containing natural ingredients. American interest in Natural and Organic products has risen in conjunction with demand for cosmeceuticals, aromatherapy and spa-type products. Growth has been attributed to baby boomers and gen-x, consumers who are craving safer, non-chemical based shampoos, lotions, deodorants, toothpastes etc. Consumers perceive the term organic to represent a superior level of purity, wellness and overall health and well-being. But what are the challenges and hurdles facing formulators and marketers today?? Will Organic and Natural personal care products ever be mainstream? These areas are explored in detail in this presentation! BIO:  Jack Corley is the Executive Vice-President and Director of Sales and Marketing for Royal Aromatics Inc.

ABSTRACT:
Aging baby boomers have created a demand of highly-functional active ingredients and suppliers have launched an array of materials to meet this consumer demand. Cosmetic companies offer a wide range of ingredients to address the many facets of aging such as anti-wrinkle, skin firming, moisturization and skin lightening. Efficacy of cosmetic products is assessed by one ore more of the following approaches; volunteer self-assessment, clinical expert evaluation and objective instrumental measurements. Most instrumental assessments are highly valuable because their sensitivity and objectivity are indisputable. However, their specificity does not lessen the important of a global assessment best obtained by non-instrumental expert evaluation. This presentation discusses the importance of appropriate study design and statistical approaches for proper interpretation of anti-aging test results. BIO:
