Quality control and cosmetic standards
Your tailor-made cosmetics.
Regulations (GMP)
GMP and ISO 22716
We ensure an optimal standard in your cosmetics through rigorous quality controls in each batch, aligned with GMP and ISO 22716. Our quality management system covers everything from material inspection to post-sale surveillance (cosmovigilance), guaranteeing the safety and efficacy of each product.
Importance of quality control in cosmetics
Quality control is essential to ensure the uniformity and safety of cosmetics. Applying Good Manufacturing Practices according to standards (EN ISO 22716) minimizes the risks of contamination or process errors. A robust QA/QC system provides brand confidence, avoids consumer complaints and protects your reputation. At Carmado Labs, we treat quality as a pillar: every batch we manufacture strictly complies with the highest standards.
Quality control methods for cosmetic products
We implement controls in critical phases:
INSPECTION OF MATERIALS
We verify the identity, purity and certificate of analysis of each ingredient before use.
PRODUCTION CONTROL
We measure parameters such as pH, viscosity and temperature on-line to detect any deviation from the standard.
PRODUCT ANALYSIS
We perform physical-chemical and microbiological studies (safety tests) before releasing the lot to the market.
All results are recorded in SOP (Standard Operating Procedures) protocols, ensuring that each batch is consistent and reliable.
Essential tests for cosmetic creams
For the manufacture of creams and emulsions, we apply specific tests such as:
PRODUCT STABILITY
We evaluated how the formula resists changes in temperature and exposure to light.
MICROBIOLOGICAL ANALYSES
We determine the absence of harmful germs (bacteria, molds, yeasts).
CONTAMINANT TESTING
We look for unwanted substances and measure the degradation of actives over time.
COMPATIBILITY
We verify that the packaging does not alter the cream and that it maintains its properties.
Cosmetics quality control regulations
We rely on European legislation: Regulation (EC) No. 1223/2009 requires GMP compliance for all cosmetics. We also follow ISO Guide 22716 (2007), an international reference for the production and control of cosmetics. The regulation stipulates requirements such as:
STAFF TRAINING
All our operators are trained in GMP.
INSTALLATION AND EQUIPMENT
We maintain clean rooms and calibrated equipment.
TRACEABILITY AND RECORDS
We document each stage of the process (groups of materials, controls, final batches).
INTERNAL AUDITS
We conduct periodic reviews to identify opportunities for improvement.
WITHDRAWAL PROTOCOLS
We have clear procedures in place in the event of a product recall.
Complying with these regulations is not only mandatory, but also protects consumer health and your brand image.
Impact on customer satisfaction
An effective quality control system brings multiple benefits:
Safe and stable products: End consumers receive creams, lotions or serums that deliver on their promise, increasing their confidence.
Brand consistency: Consistent deliveries reinforce the perception of professionalism and reliability of your brand.
Fewer incidents in the market: We reduce the risk of returns or claims, protecting the image of your business and reducing associated costs.
Quality control challenges
Maintaining a GMP system requires investment and coordination:
Variability of raw materials: Each natural or active ingredient may have slight differences between batches, we must control them.
Rigorous traceability: Documenting every step (from receipt of a flower poppy to the final label) requires discipline.
Additional costs: External audits, ongoing training and facility maintenance are expenses, but are essential for excellence.
Internal coordination: This involves communication between production, R&D, quality and logistics to ensure that everything meets the standard.
Despite these challenges, quality assurance is the foundation on which we build our clients’ reputations. Your brand benefits from our technical expertise and dedicated QA resources, giving you the ultimate peace of mind in your releases.
