The cosmetics factory can cooperate to produce essence milk step by step according to the following steps

Cooperating with cosmetics factories to produce essence milk can be promoted step by step according to the following steps to ensure smooth and efficient cooperation:

1. Preliminary research and factory screening

Clarify demand: determine the positioning of essence milk (efficacy, skin suitability, price, etc.), formula direction (natural, scientific and technological ingredients, etc.), and capacity planning (order quantity, cycle demand).

Screening factories: Collect factory information through industry exhibitions, third-party platforms (such as Beautiful Practice Supply Chain), or recommendations from acquaintances, with a focus on reviewing:

Qualifications: GMPC, ISO22716 certification, cosmetics production license (Guangdong makeup/makeup brand qualification).

Ability: R&D team strength (whether customized formulas are available), production capacity scale, past cooperation cases (experience with similar products).

2. Preliminary communication and sample development

Submit requirement list: Provide detailed requirements (formula framework, packaging design draft, quality inspection standards, etc.) to candidate factories to obtain preliminary quotations and cooperation plans.

Sample making:

The factory produces 1-3 versions of samples according to the requirements (confirmation of ingredients, texture, aroma, and packaging samples is required).

Brand testing samples (compatibility, effectiveness, stability, etc.), feedback on adjustments (such as viscosity, ingredient replacement), until the final version is confirmed.

3. Contract signing and production preparation

Confirm the details of cooperation:

Sign the 'Contract for Commissioned Production', specifying the order quantity, unit price, delivery time, payment method (down payment ratio, final payment settlement), quality inspection standards, intellectual property ownership, and confidentiality clauses.

Confirm packaging material details: material and customization requirements for bottle body, bottle cap, and label (the factory can provide packaging material supplier coordination or self purchase).

Preparation of raw materials and packaging materials:

The factory purchases raw materials that comply with cosmetic safety standards, such as the EU REACH regulation, and the brand follows up on the production progress of packaging materials to avoid delivery delays.

4. Batch production and quality monitoring

Production scheduling: The factory arranges the production line according to the contract, and the brand can dispatch personnel or entrust a third party to supervise the production process (such as raw material feeding, filling process, sterilization process).

Quality inspection and acceptance:

The factory issues a Quality Inspection Report for each batch (including indicators such as microorganisms, heavy metals, pH value, etc.).

The brand party randomly samples and sends it for inspection (third-party testing agency, such as SGS), and arranges for storage after confirming that it is qualified.

5. Logistics delivery and after-sales follow-up

Delivery arrangement: Negotiate logistics methods (factory shipment or brand self pickup), confirm the division of responsibility for transportation losses, and ensure that product packaging is intact.

Long term cooperation optimization:

Collect market feedback and communicate with factories about formula or packaging iteration requirements.

Regularly evaluate factory services (on-time delivery rate, after-sales response speed) and adjust subsequent order plans.

Key precautions

Compliance: ensure that the ingredients of essence milk comply with the Regulations on the Supervision and Administration of Cosmetics, avoid the use of prohibited ingredients, and complete the product filing (non special/special brand).

Cost control: The larger the minimum order quantity, the lower the unit price, and a tiered price can be negotiated with the factory; Customization of packaging materials requires prior price comparison to avoid excessive premiums.
