PRODUCT CREATION

CUSTOMER : TERRAPOTECA

Terrapoteca contacted Cosmétique en Provence with a simple starting idea: to develop a cosmetic product based on Camargue rice water.

From these simple specifications, our teams worked to develop a mist based on patented Camargue organic red rice water and vegetable hyaluronic acid, scented with a light, enveloping and comforting fragrance.

We also supported the client throughout the entire project: regulations, packaging, marketing.

Formulation

This phase is based initially on the precise definition of your specifications integrating all the desired characteristics for your cosmetic product: texture, fragrance, targeted effects, type of formulation

Our cosmetic expertise allows us to offer you relevant products, incorporating the latest innovations in the sector, while respecting regulatory constraints that change regularly.

During this phase, you are in contact with the R&D Formulation team to improve responsiveness and shorten development times. If necessary, several pre-series samples are submitted to you until validation.

We also monitor the stability and reproducibility of your formulas via aging studies and compatibility tests.

R&D and INNOVATION

Our R&D department, through its supplier relationship, is constantly monitoring new active ingredients, ingredients and extracts to develop products that meet the briefs of its customers. In partnership with several perfumers, we offer exclusive olfactory notes or notes from our bestsellers.

Our laboratory works on the creation of innovative, specific or fun formulas, on a conventional, natural or organic basis. It formulates, reformulates or integrates standard or specific product ranges.

For example, we were among the first to launch a range of cosmetics with a high concentration of CBD, which brings very good results.

INNOVATION
CBD FORMULA

The Cosmétique en Provence R&D team worked on a range of cosmetics with a high CBD content.

CBD is known for its anti-inflammatory, anti-stress and anti-aging properties.

The challenge was to successfully develop a stable formula with a high CBD content and to industrialize it for production in large quantities.
