The Next Chapter of Skin Care in 2026:
A Sensorial Ritual

The growing need for emotional wellness creates fertile ground for sensorial innovation in beauty. Mintel’s Sensorial Synergy trend for 2026 marks a major transformation, where sensory experience becomes equally important to regulate emotions and create memorable experiences.
1. The language of touch
Texture is one of the most powerful sensory cues. At InterMed, we offer a comprehensive portfolio of texturizers, emulsifiers and emollients designed to elevate sensorial appeal, enhances ritualization and product adherence.
​
2. From Scent to Function
In the Sensorial Synergy era, fragrance and essential oil evolve from scent to functional emotional benefits.
Powered by Down Under essential oil, our curated selection delivers uplifting and calming sensation, transforming skincare and personal care into micro-wellness moments.

3. Where skin performance meets emotional wellbeing
Backed by neuro-sensory studies, Wonderage™ has been shown to enhance feelings of confidence, pleasure, and satisfaction—transforming daily skincare into a sensorial ritual that nurtures both skin and mood.
