@Bobzchemist: Thankyou, Thankyou and Thank you

Gentlemen, thankyou for clarifying the marketing strategies/ reality of the industry and how it works. Please understand I am a newbie to all this information, but it does not deter my sheer passion for the colour cosmetics industry itself. As a rule animal cruelty is banned here in the UK/EU across the board and that has already been decided as one of my business values. Cruelty free. I also know I have the option of keeping the majority of the ingredients organic aswell.
@johnb: I completely understand you now as in payment/fee enquiries. If we could take this formulation project to the private messages or via email it would be better, thank you.

After reading this thread and also starting my own to learn how to make vegan friendly natural products, I have now been enlightened to how 90% of these claims are a marketing strategy, so anyway yeah this community is a big eye opener for myself.

I’m also possibly taking this route but I’ve not come across any local labs based in the London,UK area online yet, so just starting my research @luisafanzani @Zhaya

@Perry: Oh wow so according to what you are saying most ingredients are default across most cosmetic makeup products and are not completely natural, they still have to go through a process to be used cosmetically. I feel I understand it that way. May I ask in regards to performance are the staple ingredient list applicable for liquid lipsticks/stains? Can you dissect this list following: Isododecane, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, Disteardimonium Hectorite, Hydrogenated Styrene/Isoprene Copolymer, Polyethylene, Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Wax, Propylene Carbonate, Tocopheryl Acetate, Synthetic Fluorphlogopite, Pentaerythrityl Tetra-Di-T-Butyl Hydroxyhydrocinnamate, Dicalcium Phosphate.
What would I need from that list if I was to create my own test batch?
For health and safety is it best to approach a formulator and how do I find these type of cosmetic chemists to help me?
With Private Labelling and contract filling, if I create a test formula can you get your chosen factory to use this to fill your mass order of units?
Can you just tell a factory straight you want a formula the same as so and so but tweak it by adding a fragrance or oil or so called marketing ingredients?
Please any little helps I’m really trying to get my head around making a good quality product.

@johnb I don’t quite understand your question. @Bill_Toge Thankyou for your insight I didn’t know that maybe if I stay on the lines of organic, I just want them to be vegan friendly and cruelty free at the end of the day but more or less animals cruelty free. Thank you for the insight. Can anyone help me with formulas/base?
