For indie & emerging brands
Cosmetic formulation & manufacturing software for indie beauty brands
Indie and emerging cosmetic brands outgrow spreadsheets fast. FormuLabz keeps your formulas, sample batches, inventory, testing, and orders in one place — so you can move from a kitchen-table recipe to a repeatable, sellable product without stitching together five different tools.
The spreadsheet stops working sooner than you think
Most small beauty brands start with a formula in a spreadsheet, ingredient costs in a second tab, and batch notes in a notebook. It works until your first reorder, your first wholesale enquiry, or your first “what was in that batch?†question. Then the gaps show: no version history, no link between a formula and the batch you actually made, no easy way to see margin, and no record trail when a customer asks.
FormuLabz replaces that patchwork with one connected workflow built for how small cosmetic teams actually operate.
What you get
Formulas & variants
Author formulas with version history, auto-INCI generation, and per-ingredient cost and percentage tracking.
Sample & production batches
Scale a formula to a batch, record what you actually made, and keep lot traceability from day one.
Inventory & receiving
Track raw materials and packaging, deduct stock as you batch, and know what you can make right now.
Cost & margin clarity
See cost per unit and margin as you formulate, with AI cost-down suggestions when a recipe is too expensive.
Compliance checks
EU 26/81 fragrance-allergen checks and US MoCRA-oriented checks help you catch issues early.
Quotes & orders
Turn wholesale interest into quotes, orders, and dispatch — without leaving the system your formulas live in.
FormuLabz is workflow and recordkeeping software. It helps you organize and check your work, but it does not by itself make any product, label, or claim legally compliant — you remain responsible for compliance in every market you sell in.
