In this category products are formulated, manufactured, packed and labeled in a new manner and design that we haven’t commercialized before. These kind of products are made based on the requirements and demands of you. To offer you original and made from scratch products, it usually requires intelligence of our skilled team to innovate one or reverse engineer a benchmark. For this total lead time to production often takes anywhere from 6 to 9 months (depending on the innovation) to complete as we guarantee to provide safe and tested new formulation.
Products off the shelf: also called “our creation” in our business model (Off The Shelf). These products are designed and developed by us and commercialized. The signature formulation of the product is designed in such a way that it can act both as a base or as an entire product on its own. They are tested for its stability and safety, they also provides room for the addition of any different fragrance or active ingredients, that makes them a new product all over.

Considering our company values, we encourage our customers to create their authentic products, simply by adding a new element that can claim betterment of product and customer satisfaction just by adding different key/active ingredients or changing the fragrance,color of the formula.

We have close relationships with the world-renounce raw material suppliers. Therefore, we can achieve the formulation you want. If you have your own patented formulation and just need a partner to help do the finished products, we have worked with many brands with this request and understand the process to accommodate the needs.

Yes surely We can find the packaging according to your requirement as we have a department dedicated to sourcing. It is important to know that every unique products shapes tend to have a high MOQ compared to the most common packaging. Also, the famous brands out there privately moulds their packaging, and suppliers usually sign exclusivity to the brands. To develop or replicate a unique packaging requires tooling fees, which can be costly depending on the material and the number of components. Based on your budget and ideas we can always develop and design or source any shapes and styles of packaging for you after having mutual discussion.
We value creativity over price, as we are a leading cosmetic manufacturer we are professionals in product development and innovation,Our prices are not fixed as every product’s packaging, formulation, label and outlook is different. We do not do wholesale. Hence, we do not have a fixed cost.
Starting with a star or hero product that represents the brand is what we recommend the new brand owners and costumers who are new to the beauty market. Also, having a financial business plan is vital for us. If you have your retail price, we can give you a clearer idea of the packaging, formula, and style of your product. If you are a mature brand or company, we look forward to introducing you to our innovations based on a product you want to develop or products we are currently developing.
For a new business that we haven’t worked with, our process is divided into two stages: development and manufacture. Before the development stage, we make sure brands and companies have all the requirements to kick off their project. This includes an approved preliminary quotation (the approximate cost of the finished product) and the project scope (product brief, launch time, agreed lead time). After this is settled, we sign an engagement contract for the project kick off. During the development stage, customers will confirm the final formulation, packaging, and labelling samples. The customer submits 50% of the payment after verifying the approved sample and 50% after the product is completed and before shipping. For repeating customers or mature cosmetic brands that have their way of working, we are open to discuss the terms before our project kick-off.
We are more than open for brands and customers to sign NDA with us. When it comes to product development, we never share products among customers. We do not do wholesale. Therefore, we do not resell the final products from other customers or re-label our customers’ formulations.
NDAs if the customer wishes to. Engagement letter for one year attached with the preliminary quotation for new customers. We encourage to have this signed first, so we can understand your specific needs first before kick off the project and starting the development of your final product. The engagement letter is mainly a mutual agreement (without any law- binding), between the vendor and buyer, that both parties understand the terms of cooperation and to prevent any disputes or misunderstanding during the next stages.

We are also open to using other meeting tools to connect with mature clients that have their way of working.
