About us
From kitchen bench to contract manufacturer, without the gatekeepers.
Beauty Ingredients by Univar Solutions exists for the indie founder formulating in a kitchen, the emerging brand outgrowing its third-party formulation house, and the small team that goes straight to contract manufacturers. We compress discovery, formulation, sampling, and quoting — historically scattered across distributors, consultants, and email threads — into a single guided journey.
The platform is powered by ChemAI, the AI commerce engine built for the chemical industry, tuned here for skincare and personal care chemistry.
AI formulation intelligence
Our advisor, powered by ChemAI, turns a marketing brief into manufacturable formulation concepts grounded in proven reference formulas — in minutes, not weeks.
Samples without the sales gauntlet
Request bench samples of any catalog ingredient or full concept kit in one click. No distributor account, no minimum spend, no phone tag.
Global supply chain, indie-friendly MOQs
Backed by Univar Solutions distribution, we bring kilogram-scale MOQs and transparent lead times to brands that are not ready for drum quantities.
Compliance built in
INCI-accurate catalog data, certification tracking (COSMOS, ECOCERT, Vegan), and regulatory-aware formulation guidance from day one.
