Thanks to the remote revolution, they can be based halfway across the globe and still be available for your project. Here are some of the services formulation chemists provide.
A cosmetics formulation chemist can help with developing skin and haircare products that are shelf-stable, effective and safe. When you hire a cosmetic chemist, you can look for specific expertise that you might require, for e.g., experience with vegan or natural products, or experience with specific perfumes and flavours. A development chemist for skin care can help you develop lotions or make up, whereas a hair product chemist can help you create shampoos, serums, oils and other hair products. Freelance cosmetics chemists are growing in demand every day, and work with both big companies as well as small businesses to meet the demands of the rapidly evolving FMCG industry.

You may also need specialists who develop skin care or hair care products for specific ethnicities and skin types such as black cosmetic chemists.
- Deadline & location: How quickly do you need to find a chemist? Do you need to find a formulation chemist near you? Are you looking to exchange physical samples or meet in person to go over recipes?
- Budget: How much does it cost to hire a cosmetic chemist? The answer varies based on what kind of expertise you need and how quickly you need it. However a benchmark figure is that it can cost betweeen USD 500-USD 5,000.
