You’ll formulate a wide range of skincare products including: facial oils and oil-based serums, body and massage oils, dry oil body spray, bath and shower oils, cleansing oils, oil-to-milk cleansers, whipped body butters, balms and salves, soaks and scrubs, facial and body polishes, toners and spritzers, creams and lotions.
Learn professional formulation skills and knowledge such as how to develop a product concept using a product development brief, the product design process, the method of professionally writing and evaluating a formula, and how to use a benchmark (reverse formulating). Also learn about lab techniques and microbiology.
