New Methods of Delivering Ingredients That Reduce the Risk of Microbial Contamination

Event Date: February 21, 2024; Time: 5 pm; Location: Vaccaro's Trattoria

Abstract: Consumer demand for cosmetic products that do not contain preservatives has led to an increase in products that reduce the risk of microbial growth by other means.  In some cases, it may be a result of the formula used.  Alternatively, certain product forms make it more difficult for microbes to flourish.  Waterless products are one example of a category can be developed without a preservative due to the low water activity observed in most formats.  A background on water activity will be discussed, and we will take a look at the waterless category and the variety of product forms within it that are being manufactured for the beauty and skincare industry.
