For this episode, we got reinforcements from the Tosla Nutricosmetics’ R&D team – in addition to Tosla’s CIO Uroš Gotar we were joined by our biochemist Dolores Hartig to discuss active and other ingredients that go into a product, how to choose and combine them into a formulation, and touched on how to approach the development of beauty supplements that work not only in the lab but also in real life, for real people.
We cover everything from understanding active ingredients to delving into the differences between vitamins and minerals. Learn about the significance of non-active ingredients in formulations, the possibility of avoiding preservatives, and the intricate process of carefully choosing the ingredients for beauty potions.
On top of that, we are sharing insights into flavour optimization when developing products for real-life use, the enduring popularity of Collagen, ingredients to avoid, and the strategy behind formulating claims.
Whether you’re a professional in the nutricosmetics industry, a brand owner, or a health-conscious individual, this episode is packed with valuable knowledge on the know-how of beauty supplements, DOs and DON’Ts, and product formulating.
Enjoy!
