Anyone know of a great manufacture for effective skin care (cosmeceutical) that has all you need for effective retail and backbar? There are so many companies out there! I also need little to no minimums. And cost efficient! Any advice would be great. Thanks!
Just wanted to give you a heads-up. In California if you are a Private Label-er. You have to register your products with the California Air Board, CARB. This is new and just started last year. I have been using Vitelle Labs for about 10 years, great products. I can remember when we only had about 25 products now, we have about 300. Now, I don't know what to do as I can see big cost coming with the CARB. in the form of fees.
Vitelle is required to tell CARB about you if you sell your products in Cal. And you have to register your products as responsible party. The registration requires pics of products, ingredients, etc. The lab will set it up for you, but the web is hard to navigate and your information is not privet.
So look forward to government involvement in your business if you private Label in Cal. They also want to know about your sales and how much you made off your products. I'm sure this is going to be based on the fees.
If you don't register your private label products in Cal. (the only state that is doing this) you will get huge fines.
Just wanted to give you a heads-up, as I'm jumping through the nightmare hoops of CARB.
Skincare professionals Please be aware of CARB and skincare companies. Pass it along, we need to fight this Face book it, Tweet it. Pass it along to all the big companies that do business in Cal.
I can help. Next Beauty Labs was built specifically for brands and clinics that need effective, clinical-grade formulas with retail + backbar formats, low minimums, and a turnkey path (formula selection, packaging guidance, label design, compliance support, production, and scale-up).
