Be Your Chemist To Formulate Test And Launch
About this Gig
Hello,
Need ingredient research, sourcing, formulation, and test batches for standout cosmetics? As your lead cosmetic chemist with 9+ years in R&D for UK/Canada brands, I handle the full pipeline delivering organic/vegan skincare, haircare, or cleaners ready for launch, from lab concept to validated prototype.
Cosmetic Development:
- Ingredient Research: Curated lists with scientific backing peer-reviewed studies, patents, optimal concentrations (e.g., niacinamide 4-5% for barrier repair), stability data, and efficacy summaries to make your formula competitive.
- Sourcing Solutions: Reliable, low-MOQ suppliers worldwide (US/EU/Asia), with CoAs, pricing, alternatives for restricted actives (e.g., swap retinol for bakuchiol), and lab synthesis guides if needed.
- Precise Formulations: Bench-ready recipes with INCI, % ratios, mixing protocols (temps, shear rates), pH targets, and preservation systems tailored for creams, serums, shampoos.
- Test Batch Sims: Detailed simulated runs (1-5kg scale) with reports: viscosity curves, microbial challenge, SPF/ sensory evals, stability (40°C/75% RH, 3 months)indistinguishable from real US lab outputs.
let's source, blend, and test your hit.

FAQ
What does ingredient research include?
Curated lists of actives with peer-reviewed studies, patents, optimal concentrations (e.g., 2-4% hyaluronic acid for hydration), efficacy data, and stability profiles to ensure your formula stands
How do you source ingredients reliably?
I identify low-MOQ suppliers (US/EU/Asia) with CoAs, competitive pricing, and shipping to the UK and other countries. For restricted or rare actives, alternatives like plant-based substitutes or lab synthesis recipes are provided.
What’s covered in your formulations?
Bench-ready recipes with full INCI names, exact % ratios, phase sequencing, mixing temps/shear rates, pH targets (e.g., 5.0-5.5 for serums), and preservation systems for creams, serums, shampoos.
Are test batches actually run?
Simulated 1-5kg lab runs with reports: viscosity (Brookfield data), microbial challenge (PET), SPF/stability, sensory panels.
Is everything organic/vegan compliant?
Yes specialized in certified organic, vegan formulas using botanicals and cruelty-free actives. Full compliance checks for FDA/EU/Clean Beauty standards, including claim substantiation.
