About this Event
The Cindy J Formulation Studio is a hands-on, in-person cosmetic science experience designed for founders, product developers, students, and cosmetic chemist creators who want to move beyond DIY and formulate with intention.
Hosted inside a working cosmetic laboratory, this studio offers guided formulation education rooted in real lab processes, ingredient functionality, and professional decision-making—led by a practicing cosmetic chemist.
This is not a demonstration or lecture-style class. Participants will actively formulate, learn the “why” behind ingredient behavior, and leave with practical tools they can apply beyond the session.
