The next edition of SALÓN LOOK INTERNACIONAL, the International Image and Integral Aesthetics Exhibition, an event organised by IFEMA, presents some favourable participation prospects. With still four months to go before the fair itself takes place (between 15th and 17th October next), SALÓN LOOK has reserved almost 70 per cent of the total amount of exhibition space contracted at last year's edition, which featured the participation of 400 Spanish and foreign companies and brands, based on an exhibition area measuring some 12,500 square metres. The exhibition will be distributed throughout Hall 4 (Hairdressing) and Hall 3 (Beauty Care) at Feria de Madrid. Certain companies that were absent at the last edition will rejoin the fair at the next, encouraged by the favourable results achieved in October 2009.

This satisfactory development confirms the role that SALÓN LOOK INTERNACIONAL plays as a key point of reference for beauty care within the Spanish-speaking world and an indispensable trade meeting-point at which to discover the latest trends and innovations within this field.

As is customary, the fair will feature the participation of various outstanding companies at the trade exhibition, based on a layout and design created to facilitate the circulation of buyers and distributors throughout the fair and to boost their contact with exhibitors. All of the trade activity linked to Beauty Care will take place in Hall 3 at Feria de Madrid, featuring an exhibition organised around the sections known as Beauty Care, Wellness & Spa, Nails and Bio-Cosmetics and Aesthetic Medicine. This edition of SALÓN LOOK will also once again feature a new area devoted to Spa/Wellness, as well as Bio-Cosmetics and Natural Cosmetics, without forgetting the Zoom Area, a section inaugurated last year that was very warmly received by both exhibitors and visitors. The Zoom Area will present the new lines that have only recently been launched onto the market.
