Trend Tension: Optimizing for Authenticity

Trends are a critical growth engine for beauty brands — but they can also pull brands into performative “trend chasing” rabbit holes. In this thought-provoking panel led by Pinterest, you will hear from thought leaders at Maybelline, Influencer, and Pinterest Predicts who will explore how beauty marketers can engage with emerging trends without sacrificing identity. This will unpack:

How to separate durable cultural shifts from short-lived fads

How to assess “brand permission” and audience relevance before jumping in

How to translate a trend into distinctive creative, product storytelling, and creator collaborations that feel authentic.

Workshopping How the “Ultimate Beauty Brand” Uses AI

Join Alida Labs’ Chaz Giles for a forward-looking discussion on AI’s rapid acceleration in 2025 and what it means heading into 2026. Come ready to engage in an interactive workshop where you’ll explore smart and responsible ways to apply AI, and learn from the perspectives of your peers. The session will also highlight common pitfalls to avoid when scaling AI initiatives, and provide clarity on how AI will—and won’t—impact your role.
