I am building a new skincare line and need a chemical engineer who can craft original, ready-for-manufacture formulations for an complete basic routine—think gentle cleanser, everyday moisturizer, versatile serum and a few specialty add-ons. Every formula must respect the full spectrum of skin tones and remain effective yet well-tolerated on sensitive, acne-prone, dry or mature skin, as I intend the range to cover both daily maintenance and targeted concerns. Here’s what I expect from you: • A unique formulation sheet for each product, showing percentages, INCI names and recommended actives/preservatives. • Clear small-batch instructions that can be scaled to pilot and commercial runs, including pH adjustment and viscosity targets. • Brief stability and compatibility guidance so I know how long the product will last and what packaging is suitable. • Notes on global regulatory compliance (USA/EU) and any claims substantiation you feel are realistic. I’ll give feedback on texture, scent and performance as we iterate; your ability to translate that feedback into precise adjustments is essential. If you have past work that demonstrates successful skincare launches—or data showing how you matched actives to diverse skin types—please share it along with a concise outline of how you would approach this project from concept through pilot batch. Looking forward to collaborating on formulas that will set my brand apart.

I would be happy to support the development of your complete skincare line, including cleanser, moisturizer, serum, and targeted specialty products. I have experience in skincare formulation projects involving sensitive, acne-prone, dry, mature, and diverse skin types, with expertise in ingredient selection, active compatibility, preservative systems, pH adjustment, viscosity control, INCI documentation, stability planning, packaging compatibility, and scale-up from lab batches to pilot production. I can prepare original, ready-for-manufacture formulation sheets with exact percentages, manufacturing instructions, target pH and viscosity, packaging recommendations, stability guidance, and USA/EU regulatory notes. I can also refine each formula based on your feedback on texture, scent, absorption, and performance, with the goal of creating a safe, effective, differentiated, and commercially viable skincare range.
