Q1: What is the minimum order quantity (Mindestbestellmenge) for private label tanning products?
A: Our typical MOQ is 5,000–10,000 units per SKU, depending on the formula and packaging. Zum Beispiel, a standard run for a tanning lotion in a tube might be 10,000 pieces. We do offer flexibility for smaller brands – such as splitting an order into two variations (z.B., 5,000 of two different shades) or producing 10,000 units but shipping in two batches of 5,000. Hier entlang, you can start with a smaller initial stock while still benefiting from our manufacturing efficiencies.
Q2: Can I customize the formula and scent of the tanning products?
A: Absolutely. All of our private label tanning products are fully customizable. You can specify everything from the active tanning level (DHA percentage for depth of tan) and the inclusion of bronzers or skincare ingredients, to the fragrance or essential oils used for scent. Unser R&D team will work with you to develop a formula that meets your brand’s specifications for color, Textur, Duft, und Leistung. We can even match or adjust formulas if you have a reference product in mind, ensuring your tanning product is truly unique to your brand.
Q3: Do you provide packaging and design services, or do I need to supply my own packaging?
A: We offer end-to-end packaging solutions. You do not need to supply your own packaging unless you prefer to. Ausmetics can source and customize a wide range of packaging options for your tanning products – whether it’s bottles, Pumps, Röhren, or jars. We’ll present packaging styles and materials for you to choose from that align with your brand image. We also assist with graphic design for labels and packaging, including printing your logo, choosing colors, and ensuring all required information (Zutaten, usage directions, usw.) is on the label. Our goal is to deliver a shelf-ready product, so you save time and effort on packaging development.
Q4: Are your tanning products cruelty-free and vegan?
A: Ja. All products manufactured by Ausmetics are 100% tierversuchsfrei – we never test on animals. This is a core value of our company, and it also ensures compliance with regulations in regions like the EU where animal testing is banned. Zusätzlich, we can formulate your private label tanning products to be vegan. This means we would use plant-based ingredients and avoid any animal-derived ingredients (zum Beispiel, using plant glycerin instead of animal-derived glycerin, usw.). If you want to highlight vegan or clean beauty claims, let us know and we will develop the formula accordingly (and provide documentation to support those claims).
F5: How do you ensure the products meet EU and US regulations?
A: Ausmetics has a dedicated Quality Assurance and Regulatory Compliance team to make sure all products adhere to local and international regulations. For the EU, we ensure the formula meets the requirements of the EU Cosmetic Regulation (EC) Nein. 1223/2009 – no banned substances, appropriate ingredient percentages, and we conduct a safety assessment via a qualified assessor to produce the CPSR. We assist you with compiling the Product Information File (PIF) and guide you through the EU CPNP notification process for your product. For the US market, we follow FDA guidelines for cosmetics: we make sure all ingredients are approved for cosmetic use and at safe levels, and ensure labeling meets FDA regulations (z.B., INCI ingredient names, net contents, and required disclaimers). Our factory is FDA-registered and GMP compliant, meaning our processes meet the standards expected for producing products for the US. We also stay updated on any changes in laws (zum Beispiel, new ingredient bans or restrictions) and will proactively adjust formulas if needed. Rest assured, when you work with Ausmetics, regulatory compliance is built into our development process.
F6: What is the typical lead time to develop and produce a private label tanning product?
A: The lead time can vary depending on the complexity of your product and order size, but generally the timeline is as follows: Product development and sampling usually takes a few weeks (approximately 2–4 weeks to create custom lab samples for you to evaluate). Once you approve the formula and packaging, mass production and filling takes about 45–50 days. So in total, you can expect roughly 8–12 weeks from project start to finished products ready to ship. This timeline includes formulation, testen, sample approval, ingredient sourcing, Produktion, and quality checks. We prioritize thoroughness to ensure you get a high-quality product, but we also work efficiently and will keep you updated at each stage. If you have a specific launch deadline, let us know and we will do our best to accommodate it in the schedule.
F7: Can Ausmetics ship my private label products internationally (to Europe/US)?
A: Ja, we regularly ship products to clients in Europe, North America, and around the globe. We are experienced in international logistics für Kosmetika. We can handle the export process from our side, including proper documentation like commercial invoices, packing lists, and certificates of analysis or origin if required. You can arrange the freight or we can assist in finding a reliable shipping carrier (by air or sea). We ensure that the products are securely packed for long-distance transport. Keep in mind, we’ll also help ensure you have any documentation you might need for import customs clearance on your side (zum Beispiel, the EU requires a customer-facing address on the label and possibly certain notifications which we help with). Our goal is to make the delivery of your tanning products as smooth as the production.
