The SCS 2026 Annual Conference, taking place on 1-2 July 2026, is a two-day event, open to anyone who would like to attend. Taking place in the Spine Building, Liverpool, the conference will focus on the high-quality cosmetic science being carried out in research groups right across the UK and Ireland, both in industry and in universities. It will bring together leading scientists to share their latest discoveries and offer attendees a unique opportunity to expand their professional networks and build new collaborations.
This year there will be many additional features to the conference, including an expert panel debate on driving innovation in the cosmetics industry, a pre-conference tour of the Materials Innovation Factory at the University of Liverpool, and a students’ poster competition and drinks reception. Plus, as always, a lively exhibitors’ area.
The scientific programme will cover 5 key topics and has been carefully complied by the SCS:
- Trends in Formulation Science
- Skin Science & Technologies
- Hair Products & Appliances
- Sensory Benefits & Testing
- Breakthrough Claims Testing Methods
SCS Members (and members of other partner societies affiliated with the International Federation of Societies of Cosmetic Chemists (IFSCC)) benefit from a discounted delegate rate, and all attendees can benefit from an Early Bird Special Rate if they book by Friday 29 May 2026.
