Syensqo in the Skin Care Industry
The skin is our body’s largest organ so skin care is pivotal to both our overall health and visual appearance. Carefully focusing on the delicate areas of the face, neck and chest, skin care also adeptly addresses the body's broader needs.
Skin care embodies a triad of core values: safety and benefits for the consumer, eco-friendly ingredients and a seamless amalgamation of sustainability, science and efficacy, ensuring well-being for all. In today’s dynamic skin care landscape, three macro trends prominently stand out:
- Responsible-Care: a desire for quality ingredients for both people and the planet.
- Beyond-Care: an extension of care and application, from skin care to adjacencies.
- Self-Care: a holistic approach to skin care in pursuit of one’s well-being.
"By capitalizing on our expertises and technologies, combined with our sustainable approach, we are able to eco-design unique solutions to answer the needs of the skin care market."
A Perfect Combination of Sustainability and Ambition
Venturing boldly into the skin care market, we aim to diversify our specialty beauty care portfolio. This strategic move is underscored by an unwavering commitment to providing specialty ingredients, ranging from emollients and rheology modifiers to green emulsifiers, texturizing agents and specialty active ingredients designed specifically for skin care. Through technological mastery and a rich heritage of expertise in hair care and skin cleansing, Syensqo is poised to offer unique and innovative ingredients that adeptly meet the nuanced needs of the skin care market.
