Cosmoprof Asia 2017, the favourite Asia Pacific (APAC) event that reveals the latest trends and novelties in the cosmetics industry, prepares for new awards to recognise cutting-edge developments in the region.

The internationally-recognised event takes place across two venues to reflect all areas of the beauty world.

Between 15th -17th November 2017, the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre will tackle the latest trends and launches in the perfumery and cosmetics, natural and organic, beauty salon, hair, nail and accessories sectors.

From 14th-16th November 2017, Cosmopack Asia, which will be held at the AsiaWorld-Expo, will explore what is happening in the cosmetic sphere’s entire supply chain including ingredients, contract manufacturing, machinery and packaging.

Creating innovation

This year’s event will feature both the Innovation Circle Awards and the Beauty Circle Awards.

Following the first-time Innovation Circle Awards in 2016, innovation will be at the centre of this year’s event once more and will award those companies that have succeeded in formulation and packaging.

In 2017, Beauty Circle Awards will also emerge on this year’s events calendar. It will appreciate the creativity and marketing strategies of those exhibitors attending the three-day show.  

Both initiatives are organised in partnership with subscription-based trend intelligence resource, Beautystreams, which is organising both awards, while branding and design firm, Centdegres, is creating the trophy concept.   

The winners of the Innovation Circle Awards will be announced on 14th November at the AsiaWorld-Expo and the winners of the Beauty Circle Awards will be revealed on 15th November as part of the 22nd edition of Cosmoprof Asia.
