Whether you’re an established skincare brand, a startup launching your first line, or an independent professional, we offer turnkey formulation and research services to help you create advanced skincare products.

Tell us what your formula needs to achieve and which ingredients you’d like to explore. We’ll develop a custom, lab-ready formula designed for scale and regulatory compliance.

Clients may secure their formulation slot in advance by submitting a deposit equal to half of the formulation fee, plus the cost of selected ingredients. Formulas will be processed in the order deposits are received. We are not currently

selling finished formulations or providing samples until the lab is operational. Payments are for service time and formulation development and will be fulfilled upon lab becoming operational, which is anticipated during the third quarter of 2025.

NanoBase is our proprietary phospholipid-based nanoemulsion system developed to support modern skincare formulation.

NanoBase™ Classic / Luxe Comparison

NanoBase™ is a phospholipid-based nanoemulsion platform developed by Pensive Beauty’s formulation team to support modern skincare R&D. Engineered for maximum formulation flexibility, it is pre-emulsified at approximately 200 nanometers to support uniform ingredient dispersion and improve base performance across a wide range of active types.

NanoBase™ helps reduce formulation friction by supporting ingredient stability, enhancing sensory feel, and providing a smooth glide for both oil- and water-soluble inputs. It can be customized for various product formats and is available in two pre-structured versions — Classic and Luxe — to support a range of textures and brand aesthetics.

NanoBase is a formulation tool for research and product development purposes only. It is not a finished product and is not intended for direct-to-consumer use.
