11:45 am – 12:30 pm: Future Color: Autumn/Winter 2018/19 Forecast for Cosmetics & Hair.

Michael Nolte, Beautystreams, presents his color analysis and forecast for Autumn/Winter 2018/19.
This season, there is a stream of coolness running through the Color Forecast. Contrast is key this season with a meeting of muted and bolder shades. The Moonlight and Regimental color directions represent this contrast through their own self-contained palettes, offering paler and deeper shades to play with all at once. Taking a more subtle stance, Icescape and Cashmere celebrate a contemporary approach to soft neutrals, while Warm Ochres add a harmonious depth to the overall spectrum. And for punch, we turn to Girl Power and Ultra Violet to harness the strength of highly saturated shades and their dynamic energy.

For hair color, the contrast exists in light and dark shades, as well as between natural and synthetic colors. Color directions range from Fox Brondes to Moonlit Blacks and Rosewoods. Join us at the Beautystreams seminar for other inspiring color directions.

New chineseness, new beauties!

1:00 pm – 1:45 pm: "New Chineseness, new Beauties" Conference by Christophe Pradère, CEO & Founder of BETC Design (Havas Group).

Through its rapid economical development, China is now at the crossroad between its heritage and modernity…From its cultural notion of spirituality to a fast pace digital driven society, the merge of the two are creating a contemporary and new vision of China. A tension between the past and the future that is hybridized and creates a new local harmony rather than oppositions. Among all, a new beauty market has emerged in China over the past few years, echoing with the main other market of Asia: Korea and Japan.

An ecosystem of new brands has sprung out, redefining new local beauty models with a high inspirational potential to influence the definition of the global beauty archetypes of the future. An inspirational walk through what defines this new Chineseness put in perspective with the other mature markets (Korea, Japan and Western countries).
