THE LIGHT POWDER: From FACTORY to EXPERIENCE
In collaboration with Centdegrés, Cosmoprof Asia presents “The Light Powder”. A project that involves both trade fair venues in showcasing the production process and customer experience of a compact powder.
Cosmopack Asia will set up “The Light Powder Factory” at AWE. A live compact powder production line to show how a deluxe compact powder is made. The process continues in the HKCEC with “The Light Powder Experience” where the compact powder will be available in three different shades and a special palette package. This social and multi-sensory experience is available for visitors thanks to the special installations created by Centdegrés.
