12 Noon Luncheon & 1 pm Speaker Presentation

Today’s beauty consumer is exploring new directions and life style changes as the lines blur between beauty, wellness and health. More and more are seeing an “inside out,” whole body approach by incorporating healthier (and planet-healthy) ingredients including more vitamins and supplements, rebalancing the skin’s microbiota, and incorporating natural sunscreens and CBD’s into their beauty routines as they venture outside the boundaries of traditional Western Medicine. And looks what’s happening to fragrances! Kelly will help us explore some of these new alternative directions to the current skin care and whole body care model and look at how each brand needs to reconsider their direction in this fast changing climate.
