As skincare routines evolve from simple cleansing and moisturizing toward targeted, functional regimens, dermocosmetic products increasingly incorporate active ingredients that modulate biological pathways, strengthen the skin barrier, and support long‑term resilience. This shift reflects a broader transformation in the personal care market, where transparency, efficacy, and dermatological credibility are becoming essential differentiators. Join us as we explore next generation technologies, in vivo claim testing, and sustainability initiatives to empower brands.

Additionally, he helps to develop strategic plans to drive growth and ensure Evonik remains at the forefront of innovation. Prior to becoming a Business Development Manager, Eric was an Applied Technology Manager for Actives for Evonik and got to play in the lab with all the fun actives. When he is not exploring the exciting world of personal care, Eric is an avid runner and beer drinker! Print 0
