The contest will celebrate the most original solutions influencing even the most digital-confident and trendy consumers. The award will be given according to 8 categories: make-up formula, skincare formula, packaging skincare, packaging make-up, technology award, inspiration award, design award and special avant-garde award.  Only exhibitors at Cosmopack can participate and the projects shall be submitted no later than 27 January.
