The demand for better sunscreens in the US is growing, and it's a pressing public health issue. Last week, Credo Beauty had the honor of addressing Congress during dsm-firmenich annual Safer Under the Sun event. It was incredible to hear from so many industry experts rallying behind the push for UV filter innovation. A big thank you to Carl D'Ruiz for the invitation! I presented "The Need for Safer UV Filters: Opportunities for Innovation" on the expert panel, sharing key insights from the Safer Made report on chemical innovation and also highlighted modern toxicology methods to validate new UV filter safety. Co-founder and CEO of Credo Beauty, Annie Jackson, delivered a powerful talk on "Advancing UV Filters: Insights from the Retail Sector" where she shared Credo's perspective on the critical need for effective and inclusive SPF options. Credo was proud to present in Washington DC, because we know firsthand that with the right legislation, we can unlock groundbreaking chemistries and pave the way from safer sun protection for everyone.
