On May 5, CEW held the second New York Global Trend Reports event of the year, Future Focus: Long Beauty. Cosmetic Executive Women, Inc. (CEW) is a global, nonprofit professional organization with 8,000 global members, both men and women, from over 2,500 companies in the beauty and related industries. CEW leads the conversation in beauty, addressing topics that are shaping the future of the industry and provides unparalleled access to industry influencers and thought leaders.
Today’s global consumer is undergoing a dramatic shift from a desire for immediate gratification to a focus on long-term, sustainable beauty and well-being. What are the implications for the beauty industry and how can companies best respond? That’s the subject of the New York Global Trend Reports event of the year.
“We are seeing a global shift in the way consumers view overall health, beauty and wellness and that has a big impact on the beauty industry,” said Carlotta Jacobson, President of CEW. “We’re excited to partner with The Future Laboratory for a second year to share proprietary findings that will help prepare our members for what is next in beauty.”
