Source, manufacture, outsource products

While creative difference is a key factor, every producer has an obligation to manufacture products that are fit for purpose, stable and complaint in a controlled, safe and audited manner. There is an event in the UK – Making Cosmetics – that recognises the importance of keeping up to date with technical, legal and commercial developments related to making personal care products and the importance of managing the complex and demanding processes involved in taking products from concept to consumer. Making Cosmetics takes place next year over 2 days at the Ricoh Arena in the UK and it is completely free to attend. There are nearly 100 exhibitors and over 70 technical seminars, workshops and presentations. The dates are 25-26 March 2014. Making Cosmetics is packed with content ideal for anyone looking to:
