Cosmetic Formulation Chemist Skincare, Haircare And Personal Care
About this Gig
Have a skincare idea but need a cosmetic chemist to turn the concept into a practical formulation?
I'm Vanessa, a cosmetic formulation chemist with years of lab experience in skincare, personal care and cosmetic product development. I help brands and product founders develop thoughtful formulations based on the desired skin feel, product performance, ingredients, target user and intended product concept.
My approach considers ingredient functionality, compatibility, emulsification, preservation strategy, pH, texture, stability considerations and practical manufacturing requirements.
Whether you are developing a face serum, cream, lotion, cleanser, body product or another cosmetic, I can help structure the formulation and provide clear technical guidance throughout development.
You can work with me for:
- Custom skincare formulations
- Cosmetic product development
- Ingredient selection and functionality
- Formulation optimisation
- Texture and performance adjustments
- Formulation troubleshooting
- Laboratory development guidance
I focus on practical, well reasoned formulations rather than simply combining ingredients. Kindly message me before ORDERING and Send me your product idea.
