Thanks to the rapid development of laser and UV applications, light is now widely used for beauty and cosmetics applications.
Main segments are:
Aesthetic skin treatments, for example, to analyse the effectiveness of a treatment and for the characterization of cosmetic products.
Photonic colour-measuring instrumentation, ranging from optical microscopy and digital imaging to Raman spectroscopy, to ensure colour consistency of lipstick, and nail varnish, eye shadow, foundation, and hair dyes.
UV analysers for measuring the protection factor of sunscreens without the need of human volunteers.
Laser systems for the characterising pulverizations and sprayers.
