About the Webinar

An even coat of sunscreen is necessary to ensure the product can do its job. Unfortunately, in real life sweat and water can interfere, leading to less-than-optimal results.

Satoshi Yamaki will discuss recent research at Shiseido which led to new technology which uses water or sweat as a force to maintain the even coat.

You will learn:

• The importance of coating film uniformity
• Existing water-resistant technology
• Interactions between coating films and water/perspiration
• New water-resistant technology: producing a uniform film upon exposure to water
