Creating your cosmetics brand

We turn your idea into a complete range: formulation, testing, regulatory work, production and packaging, carried by a single team that knows your project inside out. You keep control of your brand; we bring the laboratory, natural or organic, made in France.

01Your project

Where you are starting from

Launching a brand often means juggling providers who never talk to each other: the formulator ignores the regulations, the factory ignores the packaging. We prefer to hold the thread with you, from the first conversation to the delivered products, taking the time to explain every decision.

  • You are launching your first range
  • You have no R&D team and no factory
  • You want natural, organic, made in France
  • You are looking for a partner, not just a contract manufacturer

Either way: compliance, production and delivery by the same team.

Frequently asked questions

What is the minimum quantity I can produce?

We adapt volumes to your stage of development and are used to supporting small launch runs. The minimum depends on the type of product; we discuss it together during scoping.

How long from the idea to the first products?

It depends on the complexity of the formula and the mandatory regulatory testing. We give you a realistic schedule from the brief onwards, with no promises we cannot keep.

Can I go for certified organic or natural?

Yes. We formulate natural and/or organic products and guide you towards the right certifications (Cosmos and others) for your positioning.

Does the formula belong to me?

Yes. The formulas developed for you are exclusive and confidential. Your brand remains your property.

Do you handle the regulatory side from end to end?

Yes: testing, safety assessment, PIF and CPNP notification. You are compliant for the European market.
