FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE – Kingston, ON – Advonex International will be attending an Eco-Evolution event put on by the New York Society of Cosmetic Chemists on January 25 at the Chart House in Weehawken, New Jersey. The event will feature two researchers who are helping to save our planet in different ways. This is part of a broader effort by the company to learn about various ways industry leaders are helping to create a more sustainable world in preparation for the upcoming NYSCC Suppliers’ Day 2017.

There is growing concern over potentially hazardous chemicals in cosmetics and personal care products, as well as the health of the ocean. Geoffrey Brooks and Sylvia Earle are developing products that will shape the future to benefit generations to come.

Leading edge cosmetic chemist Geoffrey Brooks is working to create ingredients using agricultural products with low environmental footprint and minimal impact on global warming.

“I will discuss some of the highlights on the important dynamics of how water works within the skin and hair in relation to water in the environment, and what the cosmetic industry has done to enhance the skin’s appearance by topically applying products.”

Top oceanography scientist Dr. Sylvia Earle, will talk about her special focus on developing a global network of areas on the land and in the ocean to safeguard the living systems that provide the underpinnings of global processes, from maintaining biodiversity and yielding basic life support services to providing stability and resiliency in response to accelerating climate change.
