Research and Development

Helping to create your formula

With 50 years' worth of cosmetics know-how and expertise, our R&D laboratory develops more than one hundred formulae every year on behalf of our clients.

From so-called standard formulae to more complex, sought-after formulae, our R&D teams bring their passion and commitment to the management of your project. Your project becomes theirs for a few months.

We can step in at any stage, in part or in full, depending on the nature of your project:

We ensure continuous monitoring of formula innovation and new active ingredients to give you the most up-to-date advice on the latest trends and natural alternatives.

We meticulously select the most suitable raw materials, either from our extensive base of pre-listed raw materials or sourced from our various active ingredients suppliers.
