SINGAPORE, 20 April 2015 – Summit Events, a leading B2B networking events organiser, today announced the most up-to-date conference programme for the 2015 Sun Protection & Anti-ageing Skin Care Conference Asia, to be held from 8-9 July at the Hilton Hotel, Singapore. Over the two-day conference, industry experts will share their insights and expertise on pertinent issues in personal care product development, to keep professionals involved in sun protection and anti-ageing skin care development, testing, and claims substantiation up-to-date on current industry needs.

Skin lightening is closely related to sun protection and anti-ageing of skin. In recent years, it has become one of the primary skin care concerns amongst consumers in Asia Pacific due to its perceived association with youth and beauty. According to research[1], the skin-brightening sector in Asia Pacific is forecast to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 13.3% through 2018.

In light of this growing trend, the second edition of the skin care conference aims to provide delegates with an avenue to acquire up-to-date knowledge about various aspects of both sun protection and anti-ageing. Conference topics will suit the likes of R&D managers and directors, dermatologists, marketing and product managers, retailers of sun care products, regulatory affairs personnel, formulation chemists, product evaluation scientists, research scientists, raw materials suppliers, and suppliers of sun product and skin testing apparatus.

Sue Trousdale, Managing Director, Summit Events Ltd, shared, “We strive to provide personal care companies with a professional and engaging platform from which they can glean insights on the latest trends, technologies, and development in sun care and anti-ageing. This year’s conference will feature a myriad of topics fronted by experts from various organisations and associations, and with this strong line-up of speakers, we are confident of providing delegates with a solid professional platform for learning, information-exchange, and peer-to-peer networking.”

The 2015 Sun Protection & Anti-ageing Skin Care Conference Asia covers four principle areas: Sun Damage and Ageing of Skin,Sun Protection and Anti-ageing Skin Care Strategies and Benefits,Regulatory and Consumer Impact and Testing, and Anti-ageing and Sun Care Technologies. The conference will cover topics, such as international sun protection methods (ISO and FDA), up-to-date technologies used to protect the skin from the sun, pollution and other environmental factors, and methods of measuring benefits of anti-ageing and skin lightening products. In addition, delegates can expect to gather updates on regulations affecting the development, advertising claims and sale of sun protection and anti-ageing products in Asia.

    Dr Alain Khaiat, President of the Cosmetics, Toiletry & Fragrance Association of Singapore, said, “The key challenge that formulators or manufacturers around the world have is in keeping up with the latest trends and information, such as regulations changes, new raw materials and technologies, etc. Signs of ageing for Asians are different from that of Caucasians, thus it is fundamental for companies to keep abreast and updated on developments that are specific to the Asia-Pacific market. And that is what this Conference offers to the industry.”
