Knowing that cosmetic products are way better than what is spread in the mainstream media, active ingredients supplier ProTec Ingredia looked out for a novel attractive way to teach consumers and professionals on the numerous and complex processes lying behind the development of cosmetics.

An ideal partner was found with Julia Keith, owner of the Beauty Blog Beautyjagd.de. Julia opened her blog 10 years ago and has since become a renowned expert in cosmetics, both on a national and international level.

While social media provide a wealth of input on beauty and lifestyle products, consumers get to know very little about the science inside cosmetics. Consequently, the idea was born to create a new format, the „Beauty-Soap“, a serial story taking the viewers to the heart of the cosmetics industry. 


Under the column „Behind the Beauty Scenes“ Julia gives insights into the diverse aspects of cosmetics research and development with a focus on active ingredients. 


In an entertaining, yet professional and informative manner, viewers are taken to an algae farm in Brittany, learn how beauty innovations are developed, why sustainability and biotechnology are such a good match, how contract manufacturers choose their actives or how cosmetic actives are tested on skin models.


Twelve episodes of the serial story are online in German and English, and every month a new one is to come.
