We produce what you promise
The journey to your beauty product
From concept to mass production
The development of a cosmetic product follows clearly defined steps – from the initial idea through to mass production. We support this process in a structured and transparent manner, with clear requirements, consultations and approvals.
[1] Concept
You define the target audience, positioning and product characteristics. These include active ingredients, fragrance, price range and packaging. The more specific your requirements are, the more efficiently the development process can proceed.
What you should bring with you
Product idea
e.g. cream, serum, shampoo or a specific treatment
Target audience & positioning
e.g. natural cosmetics, pharmacy products, premium, price range
Product features
e.g. texture, feel on the skin, how quickly it is absorbed, colour
Active ingredients / Exclusions
e.g. with hyaluronic acid, paraben-free, fragrance-free
Fragrance presentation (optional)
e.g. neutral, floral, fresh or reference product
Packaging idea (optional)
e.g. pot, tube, airless dispenser
Target price / Price range
important for future feasibility and scalability
We assess the technical feasibility, fill in any missing parameters and translate your requirements into a robust development framework.
What you get from us
technical, economic and regulatory feasibility studies
Transition to a viable product profile
Selection of suitable active ingredients and formulation approaches
Verification against regulatory requirements (ingredients, claims, documentation)
early assessment of cost and scaling factors
[2] Formulation development & samples
Development is based on extensive experience in modern and nature-based cosmetics. Initial formulations and samples are created and refined in several stages. Properties, raw materials and application are adjusted iteratively until an approved formulation is achieved.
Coordination and finalisation of formulation design and requirements
Development of initial formulations based on the product profile
Iterative optimisation of texture, fragrance and application properties
Approval of a final production sample
Commencement of stability and product testing
[3] Testing, stability & documentation
The formulation is tested under defined conditions to assess changes in consistency, colour, odour and microbiological stability.
Carrying out stability tests under various conditions
Testing for consistency, colour, odour and microbiological quality
Assessment of shelf life and storage stability
Carrying out safety assessments
Preparation of the complete Product Information File (PID)
Preparation of all documents relevant to regulatory requirements
[4] Packaging & packing materials
The product and packaging are considered together. This involves taking into account the interactions between the formulation and the packaging material, as well as requirements relating to use, protection, transport and storage. The aim is to achieve a technically suitable and process-reliable solution for filling and distribution, with transparency regarding costs and procurement.
The product and its packaging must work together.
[5] Price calculation
All relevant factors are taken into account – from raw materials and packaging materials to production and bottling costs. At the same time, minimum quantities, delivery times and production processes are defined to enable realistic planning.
Calculation of formulations, raw materials and active ingredients
Inclusion of packaging and packing materials
Taking production and bottling costs into account
Definition of minimum quantities and scaling options
Establishing a clear cost structure as a basis for decision-making
[6] Production & Bottling
Once final approval has been granted and planning is complete, production begins. The formulation, packaging and processes are defined and implemented under controlled conditions. Manufacturing takes place in accordance with specified parameters and quality standards. Filling, packaging and labelling are carried out in line with the requirements. Deadlines, quantities and procedures are coordinated and form the basis for reliable mass production.
