The Twin Cities Chapter of the Society of Cosmetic Chemists was formed in 1972. We are one of 19 Chapters within the National Society of Cosmetic Chemists that is comprised of over 5,000 members nationwide. Our Chapter hosts meetings featuring presentations and discussions on scientific topics and advancements relevant to the cosmetic industry, along with the bi-annual Holistic Symposium (back for 2025!). We also provide opportunities for professional networking and outreach to students interested in technical careers in the cosmetics industry across the Twin Cities Metro area.
