Private Label Skincare Customization FAQs

These questions cover formula, packaging and artwork decisions for a private label skincare project. For an overview of sourcing routes and sample enquiries, start with our private label buyer FAQ. Product eligibility, minimums, charges and schedules are confirmed for the selected project.

1. What determines the minimum order quantity?

Formula batch size, container, decoration and outer packaging can each affect the quantity. Confirm whether the minimum applies per formula, pack size or finished SKU. Existing-formula private label and custom development have different requirements; a minimum shown for one product is not a promise for every project. Compare MOQ and order options before preparing a purchase plan.

2. Can I customise the formula or provide my own formula?

Share your product brief, reference sample or formula information for a feasibility review. Confirm development scope, sample versions, testing, costs and production requirements before proceeding. If you already have a formula, ask what technical information and permissions are needed for the review.

3. Can I change the bottle, size or box?

Send your preferred container, capacity, closure, decoration and box references. Packaging compatibility and component availability need to be reviewed with the formula. Ask whether the change creates a separate minimum, tooling charge or additional lead time.

4. What if the product I want is not listed on the website?

Send a product development brief with your category, intended use, destination market, specifications and packaging ideas. Include estimated quantity and launch timing if known. A request is reviewed for feasibility; it does not mean every product or specification is available.

5. Can I add ingredients to an existing formula?

Describe the ingredient and the result you want the product to deliver. A formula change requires technical review and may affect stability, compatibility, testing, cost and the order route. Do not assume an ingredient can simply be added to an otherwise unchanged finished product. Customer-supplied raw materials are not accepted as a standard production arrangement.

6. Can I use another brand's name or design?

Amarrie does not accept copying another brand's identity. Use your own brand name and artwork, and provide the relevant permission for any material you want to use. Confirm the ownership and approval requirements for your project before artwork is finalised.

7. What logo or packaging design support is available?

Share your logo files, brand direction, destination language and selected packaging. Confirm which artwork services, revisions and production files are included in the quotation and which incur charges. Approve the correct print-ready version before production; do not assume unlimited or free design work.

8. Can I supply packaging from my own supplier?

Customer-supplied packaging is not accepted as a standard production arrangement. You can share a proposed supplier's details for review of quality, compatibility, price, minimums and lead time. Any alternative sourcing arrangement must be confirmed before you purchase components.

9. Can I change the colour, fragrance or texture?

Provide a clear reference and explain the change you need. Feasibility and the required evaluation depend on the formula and intended market. Confirm whether a separate sample, specification, testing or development quotation is required.

10. Can I request a fragrance-free version?

Ask which eligible formulas meet your brief and provide the destination market and intended label wording. Removing fragrance from a formula is a change that needs review; it is not automatically available for every product. Confirm the approved formulation and supporting information before making a label claim.

11. Which quality and product documents can I request?

Ask for the current documents relevant to your selected product and manufacturing facility, such as specifications, ingredient information, available quality records or testing information. Check the holder, scope, product version and validity. The documents needed vary by product and destination; a facility certificate does not establish that every product is approved in every market.

12. When can I confirm production and delivery timing?

Ask for a schedule after the formula, packaging, artwork and order requirements are defined. Confirm what must be approved or supplied before production starts. Separate development, component sourcing, production and transport milestones, and discuss urgent requirements before ordering. A past rush order is not a standard delivery guarantee.
