If you have read my articles about DIY cosmetics, you probably wonder where to get additional information about theory, more formulas and where to buy stuff.
Many online resources are already mentioned and linked in all my posts, but I thought it could be a good idea to collect them all in the same place, such that you can always find them.
Cosmetic chemistry and formulation: theory, formulas, info
Suppliers for hobby formulators (limited to European shops)
| German shops | Dragonspice Manske-shop Aliacura Alexmo-cosmetics Brennessel |
| Italian shops | Glamour Cosmetics Farmacia Vernile Cosmetolando Zenstore |
| French shops | Aroma Zone |
There are a lot more: these are only the ones I know and I ordered from (or I know people who did). If you know of any other reliable supplier, feel free to contact me and tell me about them!
Packaging suppliers
You can find packaging material for your cosmetics in alla the websites linked above. Aroma Zone is one of the best equipped in this regard.
In addition, I like to use glass jars and bottles for my cosmetics, that I buy in shops that sell glass jars and packaging for jams.
Gläser und Flaschen
Bottiglie e vasi (it’s still a German shop but it ships abroad for cheaper price than other shops)
