11 packaging innovations seen at MakeUp in Paris
Every year the MakeUp in Paris trade show celebrates the cutting-edge industry developments seen among exhibitors through its Innovation & Trend (IT) Awards. This year, we've put a focus on the latest packaging innovations seen at the show...

With so many EU regulation changes related to packaging sustainability, and in particular plastics, cosmetics packaging is a hot topic right now.

At this year's MakeUp in Paris trade show, many packaging exhibitors revealed their newest innovations. 

Take a look at the winning entry, as well as the 10 finalists here...

The winner: PPK & Morrama Maya Refillable Lipstick Packaging

The winning product for 2024 was a refillable lipstick case made of aluminium that features a refill made from bamboo pulp and bagasse, which resembles paper.

The lipstick case itself can be personalised and the refill smoothly slides into the case with just a simple twist.

PPK

Overprint La Surimpression Écologique

The patented overprinting technique was designed to correct errors on already printed and/or filled packaging materials, so they can be reintroduced into the supply chain and packaging facilities.
An innovation that could essentially prevent the loss of millions of packages.

Overprint

Inessens Dorure Double Vue

A double-sided hot stamping technique that gives a gold finish on the back of the label, rather than traditional silver. It also offers a larger surface for copy/logos/communication due to the printing on the back.

INESSENS

Brivaplast Group ceramic applicators for hybrid formulations

This selection of three colour cosmetics applicators incorporate ceramic for its antibacterial properties and cooling effects.

The range includes a long spatula for the face and neck, a spoon-shaped tool for eye makeup application, as well as a deer foot-shaped applicator to target skin imperfections.

The pack is made with at least 95% recycled materials, yet still maintains its colour brilliance and can also be used for components that come into direct contact with the formula.

This innovation can open new possibilities for PCR-PP bottles to be used for washable mascaras, as well as other primary cosmetics packaging.

GEKA
