Why the Cosmetic Industry is More Important Than We Sometimes Think …Dennis Laba
After a long career in the cosmetics and personal care industry, I felt compelled to reflect on why I am so proud to have been part of this profession. I have had the privilege of working at four different companies two raw material suppliers, a distributorship, and a finished goods manufacturer in roles spanning research and development, marketing, regulatory affairs, and quality control.
Along the way, I also gained insight into how major U S industry organizations such as the Society of Cosmetic Chemists, the Personal Care Products Council, and the Cosmetic Ingredient Review operate behind the scenes Through conferences, webinars, trade publications, and committee work, I came to understand not only how complex our industry is but how important it truly is W ith that perspective, I would like to share why I believe this industry matters deeply and why every individual working within it plays a meaningful role in the lives of millions
The Everyday Power of Cosmetics
Products from the cosmetics and personal care industry are used daily by billions of people around the world Lipsticks, mascaras, nail polishes, lotions, sunscreens, antiperspirants, fragrances, body washes, shampoos, conditioners, hair colors, and styling products fill our homes and routines. For simplicity, I will refer to all of these as “cosmetics ”
In an era when nearly everything is questioned, some may ask: Do we really need these products? Are they merely indulgences? To answer that, consider the simple structure of a typical mor ning Many of us begin our day by showering with a favorite scented cleanser or shampoo. We brush our teeth. We may shave, moisturize, apply sunscreen, style our hair, or apply makeup Some individuals use only a few products; others use many. Regardless of the number, these rituals are rarely accidental They are intentional acts that prepare us mentally and emotionally for the day ahead
a meeting A reliable deodorant allows us to move through the day without concer n These seemingly small interventions quietly support daily life
The Psychology of Appearance
Cosmetics operate within a powerful psychological framework. Numerous studies in social psychology have demonstrated that appearance influences first impressions, perceived competence, social interactions, and even hiring outcomes While character and capability ultimately matter most, presentation can shape the initial lens through which others see us.
When people converse, they naturally focus on the face particularly the eyes and mouth Subtle enhancements, such as defining the eyes or adding color to the lips, can draw attention and create visual contrast The vast range of shades, textures,

Letter from the Chair …Anushka
Even though winter is in full swing, the NYSCC is heating up and 2026 is already off to an exciting start.
We kicked off the year in standout fashion with our Press and Friends Breakfast in Miami Beach The event was a true reflection of collaboration in action, bringing together the NYSCC, our sister Florida SCC chapter, and valued partners Cosmetic Executive Women and Inter national Beauty Association W ith a dynamic mix of media, industry leaders, and innovators in the room, the breakfast set an energizing tone highlighting the power of partnership, shared vision, and community
Our Four Chapter Collaborative Ski Trip was a phenomenal success, bringing together members from across chapters for a truly memorable experience From the slopes to après-ski gatherings, the weekend was thoughtfully designed to keep both skiers and non-skiers entertained, engaged, and connected
We are also thrilled that our first educational program of the year, Driving the Future of Hair Care: Product Development Powered by Innovation, taking place on February 24th at the Montclair Art Museum, is already sold out The strong response speaks volumes about the relevance of this topic and the strength of the program. The session features leading brand scientists from Olaplex and Unilever, alongside expert for mulators from KDC/One and RRM Inventive Solutions Hub, LLC, offering valuable insights into the science and innovation shaping the future of hair care.
Looking ahead, our programming momentum continues with The Beauty We Build: DIY-ing DEI in Beauty, followed by our highly anticipated Sustainability Symposium in April both designed to challenge conventions, spark meaningful dialogue, and push our industry forward
Registration is now open for Suppliers’ Day, taking place May 19th–20th, where our 2026 theme Breaking Beauty Boundaries with Science will come to life at the Jacob K Javits Convention Center As the largest ingredients and for mulation event in North America, Suppliers’ Day continues to serve as a global platfor m for scientific discovery, bold innovation, and crossindustry collaboration. Expanded educational programming, new activations, and enhanced industry participation will be announced soon, all designed to challenge the status quo and showcase the science driving the next generation of beauty.
I am proud to share that NYSCC Suppliers’ Day was recently rec by TSNN as an event dominating the U.S. exhibition market, rein its impact and leadership within the global trade show landscape
Now is the perfect time to get involved Volunteering with NYSCC chapter is a powerful way to connect, contribute, and be p of a vibrant community dedicated to advancing cosmetic science a breaking beauty boundaries together.

and finishes allows individuals to express mood, identity, and creativity often without consciously realizing they are engaging in the psychology of color and perception.
This is not about suggesting that anyone needs makeup to be beautiful As the 1970s song says, “Everybody’s beautiful in their own way. ” Rather, cosmetics offer tools tools that allow us to experiment, adapt, and sometimes simply have fun with our appearance
On special occasions, cosmetics can carry even greater emotional weight Wedding-day makeup differs from everyday routines A professional headshot may call for different choices than a casual weekend outing. These adjustments can influence self-image, elevate confidence, and enhance the overall experience of meaningful moments
Even something as simple as a haircut, a manicure, or a visit to a spa can feel transfor mative. In small but significant ways, cosmetics allow us to reinvent ourselves or perhaps more accurately, to present different facets of ourselves
Expression, Identity, and Choice
Cosmetics also provide a sense of agency They allow us to decide how we present ourselves to the world. One person may choose a bold lipstick; another may opt for a natural look. Someone may decide to go blonde, grow a beard, maintain stubble, or remain clean-shaven Others may focus on skincare, sunscreen, or fragrance. These choices reflect personality, lifestyle, culture, and mood.
This daily opportunity for expression helps keep routines fresh and reinforces a sense of control In a world where many factors feel outside our influence, choosing how we present ourselves remains deeply personal and empowering
The transfor mative potential of cosmetics is perhaps most visible during Halloween W ith the help of makeup and styling, individuals can temporarily become entirely different characters. The psychological f
and identity.
Aging, Protection, and Prevention
Beyond aesthetics, cosmetics serve an essential protective function As life expectancy increases, so does the desire to maintain healthy-looking skin over time Advances in sunscreen technology have made daily photoprotection more accessible and convenient than ever. Sunscreen is no longer reserved f
intended for everyday use. Cumulative sun exposure significantly contributes to visible skin aging. By
continuing to enjoy outdoor life
For those concer ned about the visible signs of aging, innovations such as soft-focus technologies and optical blurring agents can create smoother, more even appearances These products do not stop time but they can help individuals feel more confident as time moves forward.
Cosmetics in Healthcare: Restoring Confidence
Perhaps one of the most meaningful contributions of our industry is less widely recognized The Personal Care Products Council supports the “Look Good Feel Better” program, a free public service initiative that helps individuals undergoing cancer treatment manage appearance-related side effects Cancer therapies can lead to hair loss, skin changes, and other visible challenges that affect self-image during an already difficult time.
Through workshops, educational materials, and instructional resources, the program supports women, men, and teens as they navigate these changes. Having served more than 2.5 million individuals
worldwide, the initiative demonstrates that cosmetics are not trivial luxuries they are tools that can restore dignity, reduce anxiety, and rebuild confidence In these moments, cosmetics become something far deeper than aesthetic enhancement They become instruments of emotional support.
Why This Industry Matters
So why have I enjoyed my time in the cosmetic industry? Because I know that our work matters From raw material suppliers to distributors, from for mulation chemists to regulatory professionals, from quality control teams to finished goods manufacturers every role contributes to products that touch millions of lives every day
We help people express individuality. We help them feel confident We help protect their skin We help them age gracefully And in some cases, we help restore hope during serious illness. This is not superficial work. It is meaningful work Every one of us should feel proud to be part of an industry that quietly but profoundly enhances daily life around the world

n Celebrity Makeup Artist – Terri Bryant
For 25 years, Terri Bryant was a celebrity makeup artist and education executive working for major brands such as Smashbox, Dior, and Josie Maran She saw the world through an artist’s eye, finding unique beauty to be celebrated in the face of each person that sat in her makeup chair Throughout her time as a makeup artist, Bryant worked with people of all skill sets and abilities. She found that while her enthusiasm for makeup seemed to be shared almost universally, her skillset and natural ability as a makeup artist was not, and was always, looking for ways to make makeup better and easier for everybody.
Then a life-changing event accelerated these efforts When Bryant was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease in 2015, her first thought was: “What if I lose the ability to apply my makeup?” This wasn’t a question of vanity, but one of a lifelong passion and connection to a community She got to work designing a line that would make application easier and better not only for her, but also for all those people she had met over the years who struggled with applying the looks she had created for them This resilience led to the launch of GUIDE Beauty, a collection of makeup tools and products mindfully and intentionally designed with users across all levels of skill, ability, and disability to create products that can be enjoyed by all GUIDE Beauty’s thoughtfully designed products have won multiple beauty industry awards including Allure Best of Beauty Breakthrough Award; O, The Oprah Magazine Beauty O-Wards for Best Eyeliner; Essence Best in Black Beauty; and Harper’s Bazaar Beauty Icon Award

1979 Part IV

Maurice L. Rosenthal (1968), Stephen G. Hoch (1969), Joseph H. Kratochvil (1970), Paul Thau (1971), George Pollack (1972), Graham Barker (1973), Ber nard Foss (1974), Gerald S Goldberg (1976), Morton Pader (1977), and Sharon Reich (1978) In the Summer 2025 issue of Cosmetiscope, we looked at 1957 providing an account of the origin of the Chapter The September 2025 issue of Cosmetiscope covered the period of the middle to late 1960s (1964, 1966, and 1968). The January 2026 issue focused on some of the NYSCC’s activities in the late 1960s and early 1970s (1969, 1970 and 1971) In this issue, we discuss some of the activities in 1973, 1974, 1976, 1977, and 1978
The 1973 NYSCC Chair was Graham Barker. Graham sent the only handwritten response, and he w

originally published in the February 1973 issue of HAPPI Magazine.
Ber nard Foss (everyone called him Ber nie) described 1974 in these words:
“That was the year we tried to professionalize our chapter as much as possible We had committee chairs who were all practicing cosmetic chemists, or those that had built reputations at the bench and were presently sitting in higher positions in our industry
We even had a patent attor ney as Legislation Chair man There was a strong attempt to bring the members to the scientific meetings, and also the scientific meetings to the members by having these sessions moved to areas convenient to all ”
Gerald Goldberg in 1976 only recalled a joint meeting with the Society of Microbiologists But in this case, we can supplement the Chapter Chair’s comments with a recollection from Dave Steinberg:
“In 1976 I was Program Chair man and we had a special program event Attendance was over 600 people, and we had to move to a country club in norther n Bergen County
The two speakers were Murry Burdick (Ponds) who spoke on updating the color regulations by the FDA followed by Sam Zucker man (Kohnstamm) who talked about the

chemistry of cosmetic colors. It was the first time both experts spoke together at the same program I had a nightmare Sam, Murry, and I put together a handout of the regulations and forecast of what the FDA may do I had over 600 copies made and put them in my car before driving towards the Garden State Parkway. My car died just past the Clark exit No help was available I was getting more nervous about being late, etc Suddenly a car passed me and pulled over. It was my fiancé’s parents. They took me to an exit where I called AAA who sent a tow truck I was towed to the Union rest area where I found out the problem was a clogged gas filter I made it to the meeting with 15 minutes to spare before the mob started to arrive Estée Lauder rented a bus, Ponds had three vans, Noxell sent people up from Baltimore, etc A couple of years later I was approached by the CTFA (now PCPC) requesting that I tur n over the booklet to them. Murry, Sam, and I agreed This became the CTFA Color Handbook ”
Morton Pader (Chair, 1977) wrote:
“I would say that the most important feature of my term as Chairman was rejuvenation of the professional aspects of the chapter, culminating in the establishment (Reestablishment?) of a per manent Professional Affairs Committee and the implementation of a seminar on Phar macology and Toxicology for Cosmetic Chemists at the Tarrytown Conference Center Both appear to have had good impacts on the society and its membership, and to have been well received as attested to by their continuation and amplification.”
Tarrytown House Estate and Conference Center
Sharon Reich, the 1978 Chair, merely wrote that she was the first woman to be elected Chair man of New York Chapter and the Tarrytown Conference was a success Again, fleshing out the year from the 45th Anniversary booklet:
“A one-week conference sponsored jointly by the chapter and the Ar nold and Marie Schwartz College of Phar macy and Health Sciences (Long Island University) was held at the Arden House, Harriman, New York. The title of the conference was Phar macology and Toxicology for Cosmetic Chemists It was chaired by Dr Harold Schwartz and cochaired by Dr. Alan Shalita. A joint meeting of the chapter and the New York-New Jersey chapters of the American Marketing Association was held at the Biltmore Hotel on October 4th. March 22nd was the 1st Suppliers’ Technical Night held at the Imperial Manor The theme was Functional For mulation Ingredients and Technology The exhibit program was conducted from 2:30 – 6:30 p m followed by dinner and lecture ”
