How can a software increase your creativity and optimise your cosmetic formulation?
Software for cosmetics: what added value for formulators?
If it integrates an efficient cosmetic formulation tool, cosmetic software allow the design of a formula that meets the constraints of the various departments while freeing the creativity of the formulators.
It is essential, first of all, to ensure the traceability and the final durability of the products by designing an appropriate formula. All the information is saved and kept up to date without any risk of data loss. Gathered in one place, and accessible to all authorised people, it is easily exploitable. This avoids the use of multiple and complex excel files.
Formulation software guide their users step by step and can provide a wide range of design tools. Some allow the user to start the creative process from scratch or from an existing product, to easily retrieve elements.
Software such as COSMETIC Factory allow quick and easy access to ingredients and raw materials. They offer the possibility of filtering ingredients according to a multitude of criteria (origin, effects, etc.) so that the final product corresponds perfectly to the marketing brief, as well as to other constraints.
The list of ingredients and raw materials integrated into the software also makes it easy to obtain the complete list of ingredients once the formula is finished, and to automatically know the allergens and carry out the naturalness calculation.
The possibility of checking the regulatory compliance of its formulas as they are created is a real advantage if the tool allows it. COSMETIC Factory, for example, makes it possible to ensure that the formula complies with the regulations of a particular country at any time. This makes the formulation stage more efficient. It is carried out with full awareness of the marketing objectives. The process is also accelerated because no ingredients are "wasted" in formula tests that would ultimately prove to be non-compliant!
Another advantageous feature to have in your formulation software is the simplification of the creation of regulatory dossiers. This allows, after checking the necessary documents, to assemble and complete dossiers directly on the platform. This ensures the durability of the products with a history of all the data concerning them from the formulation stage.
The price control feature can greatly assist formulators. As the price of an ingredient is an important factor in the choice of a formula, it is important to ensure that the latter can be matched to the desired price range for the finished product. Some software, such as that offered by EcoMundo, provide access to the price grid of ingredients and raw materials at the ingredient selection stage. You can thus create your formula directly within the budgetary limits imposed.
The testing phase is fundamental to the successful creation of a product. Some formulation software provide practical tools to simplify this stage. For example, COSMETIC Factory has developed a special tablet application for testing. Thanks to a very simple QR code system dedicated to each project, you can take the software with you on your workbench. You can then transfer all the data useful for the evaluation of each test of the formula, such as the appearance, the colour or the smell, into the software. You gain in efficiency and avoid wasting time and going back and forth!
Software-assisted formulation: a technological revolution for cosmeticians
Cosmetic software are not necessarily limited to a formulation module and some have become a true collaborative tool that accompanies the entire life cycle of cosmetic products. They can, for example, manage international regulatory compliance, packaging creation or cosmetovigilance, in addition to facilitating the mission of formulators. Software such as COSMETIC Factory optimise all the daily operations of the departments involved in the creation of a cosmetic product by digitalising them.
A major advantage of some solutions is the online access to the platform. It allows all internal and external users involved in the creation and international marketing of products to collaborate via a single integrated, multilingual platform. With secure user rights management, multiple profile types can be created so that everyone has access to what they need.
Good collaboration between stakeholders and maintaining continuity of progress in the actions taken are essential factors for the success of cosmetic projects. Having a complete system that is always operational and accessible from anywhere (telecommuting, travelling, within different offices, etc.) thanks to the Cloud can therefore be a real asset. It is not impacted by time changes or time differences, each user can move forward at their own pace with a clear view on the deadlines and stages of a project.
This collaborative project management is included in some software such as COSMETIC Factory. Teams are guided in their progress thanks to the task management system, the implementation of execution and validation workflows and personalised dashboards. They have access to documents at all times and to the history of all the progress made on the products: no more loss of documents, or loss of time looking for documents that are not always up to date. The continuity of information is ensured and you even have the possibility of "going back" to see what has been done.
Integrating software to manage the formulation and the entire cosmetic project optimises the organisation of projects and employees on a daily basis and ensures undeniable benefits.
COSMETIC Factory, the solution designed by EcoMundo, gathers all these features. It allows you to create, innovate and remain vigilant with regard to compliance and regulatory constraints; and this, from conception to marketing.
