For fragrance and cosmetics manufacturers, the move towards clean beauty is essential to meet the growing expectations of consumers, who are increasingly well-informed and concerned about their health and the environment. This approach fosters customer trust and loyalty, in line with a demand for more ethical and sustainable products. It also enables compliance with increasingly stringent regulations on product safety and ecological responsibility. By aiming for clean beauty, brands are part of a dynamic of innovation while contributing to a more responsible industry that respects the planet.
The aim is to create safe cosmetics that respect both human health and the environment. In this context, it is very important to simplify formulas, and to limit as far as possible the use of ingredients that do not directly contribute to the product’s qualities.
With U^vltimate varnishes, the additives that protect fragile molecules and stabilize them are no longer necessary. A major step towards clean-beauty.

The use of ingredients of natural origin is a very strong trend in cosmetics and perfumery. This trend is very popular with customers, who perceive these ingredients as respectful of the environment and users’ health.
Most of these natural substances impose a new constraint. They are almost always composed of more fragile molecules than their synthetic or processed counterparts. In the same way that they protect our health and our environment, they need to be protected from degradation if they are to retain their full effectiveness.
UV rays, emitted by the sun and other light sources, carry enough energy to break certain chemical bonds, and fragment natural molecules. They lose the properties for which they were used in the formulation, and this is a rapid process, especially in the case of sunlight. When it’s important for the customer to be able to see the product when making a purchase, and when the product’s appearance is an important factor in its seductive power, protecting a product from UV exposure without hiding it from view is a complex issue.

The road to Clean-Beauty is not limited to thinking about ingredients and formulas. The environmental impact of packaging must also be taken into account.
In this context, U^vltimate varnishes offer several decisive advantages. Thanks to their perfect transparency, treated bottles are correctly identified as recyclable by automatic waste sorting machines.
Moreover, mineral nanocrystals do not react with living molecules, and are completely decomposed during recycling processes.
