With Chromak Research, we provide you with expert assays for accurate ingredient analysis of cosmetics and personal care products through our state-of-the-art techniques such as HPLC, GC, LCMS, and GCMS. Our advanced testing verifies that each ingredient of your formula is accurately identified, weighed, and analyzed for purity—ensuring product integrity, safety, and regulatory compliance.

As a licensed contract test lab for cosmetics, we support manufacturers, formulators, and brands with high-quality analytical testing to regulatory requirements globally. Whether you’re launching a new formulation or validating existing products, our laboratory delivers high-quality data you can trust.

Why You Need Accurate Ingredient Testing in Cosmetic Products

Ingredient-level accuracy is paramount in the cosmetic and personal care space. Consumers want safe, effective products with transparent labeling. Regulators, on the other hand, require rigid compliance to ingredient thresholds, allergen labeling, and active content verification. That’s where our accurate analytical assays by HPLC, GC, LCMS & GCMS are most needed.

Our cosmetic ingredient analysis services assist in:

  1. Confirming active ingredient levels
  2. Identifying contamination, degradation, or adulteration
  3. Confirming preservative and fragrance profiles
  4. Ensure compatibility of ingredients in formulations
  5. Comply with regional regulatory needs (FDA, EU, ASEAN, ISO)

Our Advanced Testing Methods

We utilize cutting-edge techniques for identification and quantification of cosmetic ingredients:

High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC)

Suitable for non-volatile or heat-sensitive materials, HPLC analysis of cosmetic ingredients provides proper separation and quantitation of actives, preservatives, etc.

Gas Chromatography (GC)

GC analysis of fragrance ingredients and volatile actives allows rapid and accurate profiling of essential oils, residual solvents, and other volatiles in cosmetics.

Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (LCMS)

LCMS analysis for personal care products is invaluable in the determination of trace-level bioactives, synthetic additives, and impurities that are not detectable otherwise.

Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GCMS)

For identification of unknown compounds or allergen screening, GCMS analysis of cosmetic products provides unparalleled sensitivity and selectivity.

What Do We Test?

Our ingredient testing solutions are used for a broad array of cosmetics and personal care products:

Skin lotions, anti-aging lotions, and moisturizers

Hair care such as shampoos, conditioners, and oils

Sunscreen products and UV protectants (SPF ingredient testing)

Makeup such as lipsticks, foundations, and primers

Fragrances, essential oils, and antiperspirants

We also examine natural and botanical ingredients for label claims, bioactivity, and purity.
