Customized service process of air cushion foundation make-up processing
1. Requirement communication and product positioning
Customer demand analysis
Clarify the product positioning (such as natural nude makeup/high concealer/long-lasting makeup), skin texture of target population (oily skin/dry skin/mixed skin), core efficacy (moisturizing/oil control/antioxidant) and color range (skin color card or target skin color reference is required).
Packaging and Design Requirements
Confirm the material of the powder box (plastic/metal/environmentally friendly material), sponge type (regular/honeycomb/memory cotton), whether it comes with a replacement, and brand visual elements (logo, pattern, color).
2. Formula development and sampling
Laboratory research and development
Powder processing: Airflow crushing or ball milling technology is used to process talc powder, titanium dioxide and other powders, ensuring that the particles are fine and uniform, and avoiding agglomeration.
Color code matching: By accurately matching the customer's specified color code with color paste or natural pigments, test the color consistency under different lighting conditions (natural light/cold light/warm light).
Formula optimization: adjust the proportion of oil phase (silicone oil, squalane) and water phase, balance concealer power and ductility, and add oil control ingredients (such as kaolin) or moisturizing ingredients (hyaluronic acid).
Sample Testing
Provide 5-10g samples for customers to test, evaluate the makeup effect (fit, durability, luster), odor, and irritation to the skin, and adjust the formula based on feedback.
3. Raw material procurement and testing
Core raw material screening
Select cosmetic grade powders (such as spherical nylon powder to enhance smoothness), emulsifiers (to ensure oil-water phase stability), sunscreens (if SPF value is required), and require suppliers to provide MSDS and quality inspection reports.
Key detection
Conduct heavy metal (lead, arsenic), microbial, and particle size distribution testing on the powder; Perform anti-corrosion challenge testing on liquid components to ensure the safety of the product during its shelf life.
4. Production process
Matrix preparation
Oil phase mixing: Heat the oil, wax, and emulsifier to 80 ℃ and stir evenly.
Water phase preparation: Dissolve moisturizing agents, preservatives, and active ingredients in deionized water and heat to the same temperature.
Emulsification homogenization: after the water oil phase is mixed, a stable lotion is formed by high-speed shearing (2000-3000rpm) of a vacuum emulsification machine, and the temperature is controlled below 60 ℃ to avoid powder agglomeration.
Powder dispersion and mixing
Use a three roll grinder or high-speed disperser to evenly disperse the powder into the matrix, ensure no particle feeling, and test the concealer force and transparency.
Sponge core treatment
The sponge shall be tested for absorption to ensure that each sponge absorbs the same amount of liquid foundation (usually 15-25g), and the pre soaking time shall be controlled within 2-4 hours to reach the saturation state.
Assembly and Filling
After sterilization of powder box and sponge (UV or EO sterilization), inject liquid foundation into sponge through quantitative filling machine.
Assemble accessories such as powder puff and mirror to ensure sealing (tested for no leakage under 50kPa pressure).
5. Quality inspection and compliance
Process Quality Control
Each batch is tested for pH value (5.5-7.0), viscosity (3000-8000cps), and color difference value (Δ E ≤ 1.5).
Conduct a 45 ℃ high-temperature accelerated aging test (28 days) to observe for discoloration, delamination, or mold growth.
Finished product testing
Entrust a third-party organization to conduct toxicology testing (acute transdermal toxicity, eye irritation) and sun protection factor (SPF/PA) testing (if necessary) to ensure compliance with the "Technical Safety Standards for Cosmetics".
Filing support
Assist clients in completing product registration, providing documents such as formula sheets, testing reports, and production process instructions. 1-1.jpg
6. Delivery and after-sales service
Packaging and Transportation
Provide neutral packaging or customized packaging, using shock-absorbing materials for transportation to avoid sponge displacement or leakage caused by long-distance bumps.
Long term cooperative services
Regularly track product market feedback, assist customers in optimizing color codes or upgrading formulas (such as adding skincare ingredients), and support small batch replenishment.
Customized core advantages
Flexible adjustment: support color number expansion (such as Asian skin color, European and American skin color), concealer rating (light/medium/high), and special skin feeling (matte/water).
Cost optimization: Provide different powder grades for selection (such as imported talc powder or domestic mica powder), balancing quality and cost.
Technical barrier: use nano powder coating technology to reduce floating powder, and add film-forming agent to improve makeup holding time (6-12 hours of long-term formula can be customized).
