What is the difference between cosmetics and skincare?
Skin care products usually contain more active ingredients aimed at nourishing and maintaining the skin’s health, while cosmetics focus on enhancing appearance. Additionally, skincare products are generally gentler and less chemically intense than cosmetics, which may contain some more concentration of chemicals for temporary cosmetic effects. If you want to offer both of these products—made from natural ingredients—contact us today.
Is lipstick a formulation
Yes, lipstick is a carefully crafted formulation. It consists of a blend of waxes and oils specially chosen for their compatibility. The main oil used is often food-grade castor oil—an excellent solvent for pigments. This helps with dispersion, grinding, and a solubilizer for waxes and other ingredients in the formula.
