Real Solutions for Small Cosmetic Brands: Ingredient Clarity, Product Consistency, and Risk Control

Small cosmetic manufacturers often face critical challenges—unclear ingredient composition from OEM suppliers, inconsistent product quality across batches, and unexpected customer complaints. Labsure provides practical, fast, and cost-effective testing services to help you identify ingredients, monitor consistency, and investigate issues with confidence. Here are three real-world case studies demonstrating how we support small brands to stay in control and grow stronger.

Know What’s Inside: Verifying Ingredient Content in OEM-Formulated Serums

  • Compared three production batches to check consistency.
  • Identified one batch with only 2.1% niacinamide, raising red flags.
  • Helped the brand renegotiate terms with the supplier and correct product labeling.
