Cosmetic bases: a ready-made head start for your own cosmetics
A cosmetic base is a pre-formulated foundation in which the hardest part of production — a stable emulsion and the right ratios of ingredients — is already solved. You add fragrance, colour or active ingredients, fill it into packaging and have a finished product. No emulsifying, no weighing out phases, no experiments that end up down the sink.
Which base for which product
- Hair care: the BIO shampoo base (100 ml trial size for €3.14) and the BIO conditioner base — just add fragrance and fine-tune with actives to suit the hair type.
- Body care: the body butter base for whipped butters and the natural massage oil base, which only needs a few drops of fragrance.
- Gels and serums: aloe vera gel (200 g for €7.99, with 5 kg and 25 kg buckets for production) as a cooling, hydrating foundation.
- Washing: the organic liquid Castile soap base from 500 ml at €8.39 — dilute and scent it into liquid hand soap or a gentle shower base.
Who it is for: a first product or a quick production run
For a beginner, a base delivers a first working product in a single evening — the cheapest way in is the BIO conditioner base, 100 g for €1.29. Small workshops will value the repeatability: a batch made from the same base turns out the same every time, and large packs keep the unit price low. A separate item is demineralised water (1 l for €2.79, canisters up to 20 l) — a pure, mineral-free carrier and diluent for water-based recipes. When you are ready to formulate from scratch, you will find the raw materials among the oils and hydrosols.
Documentation and dosing additives
Every base comes with a safety data sheet and a certificate of analysis; when adding fragrance, follow the IFRA standards and the allergen list — documents you will use when notifying your own product. Choose fragrances, colourants and actives for your bases in cosmetic additives; most bases are processed cold, with no heating and no special equipment.
Frequently asked questions
What is a cosmetic base and how is it used?
It is a fully formulated semi-finished product — a shampoo, conditioner, gel or body butter without fragrance or actives. The manufacturer has solved the emulsion and its stability; you simply blend the base with fragrance, colour or actives and fill it into packaging. Most bases are processed cold, without heating. One base becomes a finished product even without formulation experience.
What can I add to a shampoo base?
Bring the BIO shampoo base to life with fragrance dosed to IFRA standards, botanical extracts or a few per cent of oil chosen for the hair type. Stir the additives into a measured amount of base, mix thoroughly and fill into a bottle. The 100 ml pack at €3.14 is enough for first experiments; once the recipe works, move up to the litre size.
Do I have to heat a cosmetic base?
Usually not — the bases are made for cold processing: pour off the amount you need, stir in the additives and fill. Thorough mixing takes the place of heating, so the fragrance and actives disperse evenly. Work with clean, ideally disinfected tools and packaging — the base is a finished cosmetic product and contamination would shorten its life.
What is demineralised water for in cosmetics?
It is stripped of the minerals and salts that would react with other ingredients in a recipe or form deposits. It is used as the water phase of emulsions and for diluting bases and hydrosols, but also in steamers and irons. It is available from 1 l at €2.79 up to a 20 l canister for regular production.
