Cosmetic formulation laboratory
Formulation development, practical technical support and R&D training for colour cosmetics, personal care and suncare.
From an initial concept to a working prototype, Aurelix Labs supports the decisions that shape a formulation. We help teams explore product possibilities, understand raw materials and resolve development challenges.

What this involves
Skeleton formulations are starting frameworks that you can adapt to your own product brief, raw materials and manufacturing conditions.
Potential scope
Skeleton formulations are not presented as production-ready or validated. Further optimisation and testing may be required.
Issues we can help assess
Our approach
Not every failed batch can be recovered. Feasibility depends on the specific issue and quality assessment. Contamination or safety concerns are not treated as routine rework.
For junior R&D executives and developing technical teams.
Illustrative topics
How we work
Scope and deliverables are agreed for each specific assignment.
We understand your concept, target properties, constraints and what success looks like.
We build a formulation direction and laboratory prototypes within the agreed scope.
Prototypes are reviewed against the brief, with clear observations to inform decisions.
We adjust the formulation based on agreed feedback until the next step is clear.
Who we support
Why Aurelix Labs
Decisions grounded in how ingredients behave at the bench.
Clarity on function, selection and compatibility.
Support from first prototype to batch-level problems.
Training that helps growing teams work with more confidence.
FAQ
A starting framework that outlines ingredient functions, a basic formulation structure, a suggested processing sequence and key considerations. It is intended to be adapted and optimised for your brief, raw materials and manufacturing conditions.
Yes. We work from your concept and target properties to develop a formulation direction and prototypes for evaluation, refined against agreed feedback.
Yes. We review the formulation and batch history, assess possible causes and propose suitable laboratory trials. Whether a batch can be recovered depends on the specific issue and quality assessment.
Yes. Training focuses on raw materials, their formulation behaviour and recognising common formulation problems. Topics are discussed according to your team’s needs.
Colour cosmetics, personal care and suncare.
A brief overview of your product concept or challenge, the product category and any key constraints. Detailed formulations and confidential information can be discussed separately.
Not by default. Commercial readiness depends on the project and on appropriate stability, safety, performance, regulatory and manufacturing evaluation.
