Declining or Waning
- Synthetic Ingredients Research:
There has been a noticeable decrease in studies focusing solely on synthetic cosmetic ingredients, as the industry trends towards natural and organic formulations. Research on the effectiveness and safety of synthetic compounds is becoming less prominent. - Traditional Cosmetic Practices:
Research exploring traditional cosmetic practices and ingredients has seen a decline as modern formulations and technologies gain more attention. The focus is shifting towards innovative solutions rather than historical methods. - Basic Cosmetic Chemistry:
While foundational chemistry remains important, there is less emphasis on basic chemical studies without applied outcomes. The trend is moving towards applied research that directly correlates with consumer products and efficacy. - Animal Testing Methodologies:
As the cosmetics industry moves away from animal testing, research focused on traditional animal testing methods is declining. Instead, there is a growing emphasis on alternative testing strategies and in vitro methods.
