Professional cosmetics trade shows: the suppliers’ annual calendar
Manufacturers, labs and packaging makers often build their sales year around a few trade shows. Here are the events that matter for cosmetics suppliers, by specialty. Exact dates change every year: always check the official website of each show.
SUPPL COSMO is the 100% European B2B platform connecting cosmetic brands with European manufacturers (contract makers, labs, packaging, decoration) across the 27 EU countries, with zero commission.
The trade shows that matter for suppliers
In their usual order through the year:
PCD Paris
Perfume and cosmetics packaging. Usually early in the year, in Paris.
Cosmoprof Worldwide Bologna
Major international beauty fair, with a supplier area (Cosmopack). Usually in spring, in Bologna.
in-cosmetics Global
Ingredients and formulation. Usually in spring, in a European city that changes between editions.
MakeUp in Paris
Make-up, skin care and related packaging. Usually in Paris, in the first half of the year.
Luxe Pack Monaco
Luxury and creative packaging. Usually in autumn, in Monaco.
Cosmetic 360
Cosmetics innovation show run by Cosmetic Valley. Usually in autumn, in Paris.
Choosing the right shows
A lab or ingredient supplier will favour in-cosmetics. A bottle or cap maker will target PCD, Luxe Pack or MakeUp in Paris. A full-service contract manufacturer will meet brands at Cosmoprof and MakeUp in Paris. Two well-prepared shows beat five visits with no follow-up.
Prepare your show and keep contacts alive all year
Book meetings in advance, prepare samples and a one-page summary of your offer. After the event, follow-up matters most: a SUPPL COSMO profile lets the brands you met find your offer again and send you requests all year round.
