L’Oréal has unveiled some of its latest developments set to change the way beauty lovers engage with the brand’s skincare and hair products.
At the technology conference the French beauty giant shared the tech it has been working on, saying the innovations show dedication to beauty that is more personalised, inclusive and responsible.
There were a number of new breakthroughs across its wide stable of brands that includes the likes of Lancôme, La Roche-Posay, Kiehl’s, Maybelline Garnier and L’Oreal Paris.
‘Bioprinted skin’
One significant revelation was a realistic, human skin-like technology platform for scientific research and product testing. Made possible by the convergence of biology, mechanics and electronics, Skin Technology by L’Oréal more closely mimics the vast diversity of real, human skin, including conditions such as eczema and acne, as well as the ability to tan and heal from injury. It will help further the brand’s drive for better product testing without animal cruelty.
“Having pioneered Beauty Tech for years, we are firm believers that technology can push the boundaries of what’s possible for beauty to improve the lives of people around the world,” said Barbara Lavernos, Deputy CEO in charge of Research, Innovation and Technology, L’OréalGroupe.
“This week at VivaTech, alongside other breakthrough innovations, we are unveiling Skin Technology by L’Oréal: a new bioprinted skin that more closely mimics real human skin and opens up exciting possibilities for researchers across the cosmetic and health sectors.”
