Pre-armed with your copy of the “hard” evidence and presented with opinions from our Expert Witnesses, you will become a de-facto jury member as we explore the mystery of the investigation of the events which might have led up to the death of a prominent sun protection product.

Western Australia’s botanical diversity offers a vast frontier for cosmetic science, underpinned by 40,000 years of Indigenous knowledge. This ASCC workshop at Kings Park bridges ethnobotany and chemical science, focusing on the phytochemistry, bioactivity, and formulation potential of native species. Attendees will analyse the molecular profiles of unique extracts and essential oils, exploring how traditional medicinal plants are transformed into modern cosmetic actives. Led by an ASCC representative, the session covers the extraction processes and application science of these ingredients. This holistic experience combines conservation research with hands-on technical evaluation; all set against the backdrop of the vibrant Spring blooming season.
