Merima S.

Cosmetic Chemist - Natural Product Developer - Aromatherapist

I am a highly experienced and passionate cosmetic chemist, certified product formulator, certified aromatherapist, and licensed esthetician. I'm a proud owner of a skincare brand, a line of professional salon care products, a brick-and-mortar store, and a thriving beauty salon. Alongside my incredible team of formulators, I bring innovative and effective products to life. With expertise in developing clean, natural, organic, semi-natural, synthetic, halal, and vegan skin and hair care products, I am constantly evolving to meet the increasing demand for ethical and eco-conscious beauty solutions. Since 2014, I have been running my own skincare business, teaching formulation and aromatherapy, and creating customized product lines for clients around the globe. In 2021, I expanded my expertise to include formulating professional salon care products, and it’s immensely rewarding to see my products used in beauty salons nationwide. I am well-versed in cosmetic regulations across the EU, UK, US, Australia, and Canada, ensuring that all products meet strict compliance standards. In addition to product development, I also consult for existing brands, helping them improve their formulations, product offerings, and brand image to stay competitive in the market. My services include: • Product Development: Creating bespoke formulations entirely from scratch based on your brief. • Formula Review and Revision: Improving or adjusting existing formulas to meet your needs or ensure feasibility. • Consultation for Existing Brands: Enhancing formulations, refining product lines, and elevating brand image to better meet customer expectations. • Claims and Labeling Consultation: Expert guidance to ensure your product labels and claims align with regulatory requirements. • Lab Testing: Stability and challenge testing, outsourced to a trusted EU-based facility. Additionally, my lab collaborates with a Belgian manufacturing facility that offers no MOQ (minimum order quantity), making it possible to manufacture and fill batches of any size. If you’re looking for a trusted partner to bring your brand vision to life and elevate your offerings, I’m your ideal collaborator. Let’s create something remarkable together!
