Eventually, this year, the event introduced three brand new special areas to its lineup:

– Tones of Beauty, which was dedicated to the growing multicultural beauty market and hosted ten brands across five distinct categories - skin, hair, cosmetics, fragrance, and lifestyle.
– International Business Forum & Exhibition - Focus on the Beauty Supply Chain, serving as a business platform for companies specialized in packaging, machinery, OEM and raw materials.
Cosmoprof North America will return to Mandalay Bay Convention Center for its 2016 event July 24 - 26.
