On April 17, as the three-day in-cosmetics Global 2026 drew to a close in Paris, France, CIRS Group marked the end of its productive presence at the event. This annual gathering of the global personal care industry brought together over a thousand exhibitors and tens of thousands of professional visitors from around the world. At Booth 2D59, CIRS Group presented a strong international team of experts, leveraging its extensive experience in cosmetic regulatory consulting and scientific testing to build meaningful connections with global clients and engage in forward-looking discussions on emerging technological trends.
 

Addressing Global Compliance and Testing Challenges

Throughout the exhibition, Booth 2D59 remained a lively center of interaction. Faced with an increasingly complex global regulatory landscape for cosmetics, visitors from Europe and the Americas frequently stopped by to seek expert guidance on market access hurdles in the EU, UK, China, and South Korea.
CIRS Group presented a full spectrum of solutions, ranging from raw material safety assessment to product efficacy claims. Notably, in response to the growing focus on in vitro testing methods and green science trends, the CIRS expert team held deep technical exchanges with numerous international ingredient suppliers and brand owners, showcasing the group’s distinctive strength in bridging scientific testing with regulatory compliance.
 

Face to Face Communication

To offer even more tailored support, CIRS Group organized several one-on-one expert consultation sessions during the exhibition.

  • European Perspective: Philippa O’Donovan, General Manager of CIRS EU&UK, along with senior regulatory advisors Zeynep Gudum and Julie Harrington, provided in-depth analysis of the latest amendments to EU cosmetic regulations, helping European companies navigate their compliance responsibilities.
  • Asian Bridge: Hyeong-sik Lim, General Manager of CIRS Korea, and senior regulatory advisor SeoWon Kim offered valuable market entry strategies for European and American brands aiming to access Asian markets.
  • Testing Empowerment: Ethan Zheng, General Manager of CIRS Bio, and Wengji Chen, Head of CIRS Testing (Cosmetics Division), introduced clients to the latest technological advancements in efficacy evaluation and safety testing across CIRS’s subsidiaries.

The in-cosmetics Global 2026 was not only a showcase for CIRS Group’s service capabilities but also a prime opportunity to take the pulse of the industry. Through interactions with global peers, CIRS Group gained clearer insight into customers’ compliance and R&D needs in the context of sustainability and digital transformation. Moving forward, CIRS Group will continue to leverage its international platform, combining expert regulatory consulting with rigorous testing technologies to support partners in their global market expansion. Looking forward, we will remain committed to deepening its expertise in global compliance, helping more cosmetics companies achieve safe, efficient, and fully compliant innovation and growth.
