World's Top Tier Organic Formulation School

As a professional formulator deeply passionate about organic and ethical skincare, I often find myself reflecting on this question: What truly makes a product “clean” or “conscious”? Sure, we talk about using natural ingredients, steering clear of synthetics, and choosing eco-friendly packaging, but what about the people behind the ingredients? That’s where fair trade comes in. In the beauty industry, we work with some of the most exquisite raw materials, think shea butter from Ghana, argan oil from Morocco, or

If you’ve ever wondered why your beautifully crafted organic cream or serum doesn’t last as long as its synthetic counterpart, you’re not alone. One of the most common questions I get from students and fellow formulators is: “Why does my natural formulation go bad so quickly?” And the answer lies in something we must understand as professionals, shelf life. When we work with natural, plant-based, or organic ingredients, we’re tapping into the power of nature, but we’re also dealing with

Let’s take a moment to reimagine what “organic beauty” truly means today. When most people hear the term, their minds instantly drift to lush botanical gardens, cold-pressed oils, and herbal infusions.

That’s where the real story unfolds. Understanding your skincare label empowers you to move beyond hype

Sustainability isn’t just a buzzword anymore, it’s a responsibility we carry as conscious formulators. As someone deeply rooted in organic haircare formulation, I’ve seen firsthand how our ingredient choices, processes, and packaging can either support or strain our planet. Creating effective haircare products that nourish the scalp, strengthen strands, and promote growth is an art. But doing it sustainably? That’s where true formulation mastery lies. It’s not just about “natural” labels or using a few plant-based ingredients, it’s about honoring

Who wouldn’t love to simplify their hair care routine without compromising results?  As a professional formulator, I’ve seen this shift in consumer behavior firsthand. People are moving away from overflowing bathroom shelves and reaching for smarter, multi-functional products that save time, space, and even water. That’s where shampoo-conditioner hybrids come in, the perfect blend of cleansing and care in one bottle. But don’t mistake these for the old-school 2-in-1s we grew up with. Today’s hybrids are more advanced, thoughtfully formulated
