We analyse your cosmetics
According to EU Cosmetics Regulation 1223/2009, cosmetic packaging must list all ingredients. Some are limited by concentration and must be verified. Claims about certain ingredients also require proof to avoid misleading consumers.
Our analysis lab has been accredited by DAkkS since 2016, ensuring reliable quality.
In addition to standard tests, we’re happy to develop tailored methods to suit your specific needs.
Three main reasons for the necessity of analysing cosmetic products
Accordance with the European Cosmetic Regulation in respect of the statutory thresholds of the allowed substances in finished products
Correctness of the advertising statements
Quantitative monitoring of quality determining constituents

Determination of stability parameters
Newly formulated or reformulated cosmetic products have to fulfil certain stability criteria that are specified in the Cosmetics Directive. These stability parameters are measured by means of (long-term) stability tests.
Storage stability tests are performed in heating and cooling cabinets at different temperatures and for different storage times.
After predefined test times the relevant stability parameters are determined by means of physico-chemical and instrumental analytical tests.
If so desired, the suitability and compatibility of packaging materials can be tested.
Example of a storage stability test design:
Number of stored lots: | 3 |
|---|---|
Storage time: | 6 month |
Storage temperatures: | 4°C, 20°C (25°C, room temperature), 40°C |
Test periods: | T0, T1, T3, T6 |
Test parameters: | - Organoleptic parameters - Formulation parameters - Physico-chemical parameters - Quantitative analysis - Packaging material compatibility |
In-vitro-Testmethoden
To determine irritation potential
Because of the animal protection regulations from the year 2013, animal experiments are permanently banned in the European Union for testing cosmetic ingredients and finished products. To ensure the safety of new finished products and for selection of raw materials the in vitro test method described below is used routinely to determine the irritation potential:
1. Chorioallantois membrane test on incubated hen’s eggs (HET/CAM-Test) for evaluation of eye irritancy of finished products and raw materials (INVITTOX Protocol # 47/96)
