Cosmetic Custom Formulation

New Product Development Packages

Our New Product Development Packages are designed for brands requiring a disciplined, technically robust pathway from initial concept through to a lab-validated formulation. Each package follows a structured development framework led by experienced chemists, ensuring formulations are commercially viable, scientifically sound, and ready for scale.

What’s Included

Custom Formulation Briefing Session

A formal technical briefing to define product objectives, benchmarks, performance requirements, and regulatory considerations prior to lab development.

Two (2) Product Samples

Initial laboratory-developed samples produced for functional, sensory, and preliminary performance evaluation.

Formulation & Sample Review with a Chemist

A technical review session assessing formulation performance, ingredient selection, texture, stability considerations, and refinement pathways.

Optional In-Lab Development Session

Direct, hands-on collaboration with our chemists during formulation development (available as an optional add-on).

Intellectual Property Ownership

Full ownership of the approved formulation upon completion of the development process.

Stability Testing

Testing conducted to assess product integrity, consistency, and performance over time.
Preservative Efficacy Testing (PET) is available as a separate package.

Product Labelling & Claims Guidance

Technical guidance to support accurate product positioning and alignment with regulatory and formulation constraints.

Bulk Production Costing & Scale-Up Review

A detailed breakdown of bulk manufacturing requirements, production considerations, and indicative costings to support commercial scale-up.

TGA-Listed Products

If you are intending to develop a TGA-listed product, please contact us prior to commencement. Additional formulation strategy, testing, documentation, and compliance requirements apply and will be scoped separately.

Exclusions

• Additional laboratory sessions for further formulation iterations or sample revisions

• Preservative Efficacy Testing (PET)

• Claim substantiation studies or specialist regulatory testing
  (Additional testing services are available and can be quoted separately.)

Our Formulation Development Process

All formulations are developed using a controlled, documented process to ensure technical accuracy, repeatability, and readiness for manufacturing.

Formulation & Development (Per Product)

During the in-lab development phase, the following activities are undertaken:

• Formal review of the approved development brief and benchmark products

• Identification and selection of suitable ingredients aligned with functional objectives, benchmarks, and regulatory requirements

• Drafting of a proposed indicative formulation, including onboarding and registration of new raw materials

• Sourcing and procurement of raw materials from approved and vetted suppliers

• Experimental formulation, testing, and optimisation conducted in-lab

• Preparation of development samples, including bulk manufacture, filling, packing, and dispatch

• Preparation and submission of:

  • Product information documentation

  • Full ingredient list

  • Indicative product specification

• Preparation of formulation and process documentation, provided following final formulation approval
