Still wondering if choosing a European partner is still a good idea? Keep reading and you’ll find out.

WHY CHOOSE A EUROPEAN COSMETIC MANUFACTURER?

Selling cosmetics in Europe is not as simple as you may believe.
First of all, if you aim to sell your hair care or skin care products in this continent you have to respect all the laws and regulations of the European Union.

In Europe, many cosmetic ingredients that are considered safe and legal in the United States are against regulations. Be sure to check with your private label cosmetic manufacturer that all of the ingredients in their products (unless you purchase the formula yourself or bring your own formula to the supplier) are safe and legal to use in the country you plan to sell your products.

Long story short: you have to find someone who has to do with these complicated product regulations every day. Let’s take for instance quality control. These are the tests required by the EU:

Stability tests
Microbiological testing
Dermatological tests
Evaluation of weight, color, odor, viscosity, PH

Furthermore, a European cosmetic manufacturer can support you and can give you advice about placing a cosmetic and personal care product on the European market. If you don’t know exactly which strategy to keep, a partnership like this can help you a lot.

THE LATEST COSMETICS' TRENDS IN EUROPE AND BEYOND

The private-label cosmetics sector in Europe is seeing exciting developments in 2024, particularly in hair care. Key trends include:

Sustainability

Consumers are increasingly demanding eco-friendly products. Brands are responding by focusing on clean beauty principles, using natural, biodegradable ingredients, and minimizing environmental impact.

Skinification

Hair care is adopting skincare principles, known as "skinification." This involves creating products that not only beautify but also treat and protect hair and scalp health. Ingredients like argan oil, jojoba oil, vitamins, and antioxidants are being incorporated into hair care formulations to provide nourishment, repair, and protection from damage, similar to high-quality skincare products.

Personalization

Customization is becoming a significant trend, driven by Gen Z and Millennials who seek personalized solutions for their specific hair types and concerns. Brands are offering tailored products and services, such as personalized shampoos, conditioners, and treatments based on individual hair assessments. This trend emphasizes the importance of catering to unique consumer needs for a more personalized hair care experience.

Innovative Textures

New textures in hair care products are enhancing the user experience and performance. Products like bubble gels, sorbet creams, and foams are not only effective but also provide a unique sensory experience. These innovative textures make hair care routines more enjoyable and deliver superior results, combining creativity with functionality.

Hybrid Products

Hybrid products, or "hairceuticals," are blending the benefits of styling and treatment. These multifunctional products combine immediate cosmetic improvements with long-term health benefits. Hairceuticals are positioned between traditional cosmetics and pharmaceuticals, offering more effective solutions than regular cosmetics while being less invasive than medicines. They often include ingredients that promote hair health and address specific issues like hair loss and scalp care.
