According to the report, China’s cosmetics industry has a high degree of aggregation, with more than 86,239 cosmetics companies nationwide, and companies in Guangdong, Anhui, and Hunan provinces accounted for 44.54%. Two-thirds of the skincare and makeup factories are concentrated in Guangzhou. If you want to choose a suitable and powerful makeup manufacturer that can meet all your product requirements, you can take some of the following steps to find a makeup manufacturer in China.
1. Search Through Major Search Engines
You can search for “Chinese makeup manufacturers” and “Private Label Makeup Manufacturer” on search engines such as Google and Baidu. Do not stick to one search engine. Searching for the exact keywords in different search engines will yield different results. Also, use Alibaba, Made in China, and other platforms for more precise searches. For example, if you use the keyword “Buy+Product Name,” many websites want to buy this product.
2. Participate in Cosmetics Exhibitions
Attend key cosmetics and beauty products exhibitions in China, such as the “Canton Fair” and “Asian Beauty Show.” These exhibitions require factories to be at a certain level of strength to participate. At these exhibitions, you can communicate face-to-face with cosmetics suppliers, visit their products, and discuss plans for cooperation.
3. China Cosmetics Industry Association
You can contact some associations in China, such as “CCIA.” They can provide you with lists of reputable, reliable makeup manufacturers and valuable insights into the current industry market.
4. Company Qualifications
Make sure the cosmetics manufacturer you find is legitimate and meets industry standards. If you are targeting exports to a specific market, such as the United States, check that the manufacturer has certifications such as ISO, Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP), and FDA registration.
5. Visit the Makeup Factory
Only in this way can we truly and comprehensively understand whether it is a makeup manufacturer with advantages. In terms of hardware, a good makeup processing factory will have its R&D center, advanced equipment, abundant raw materials, and high-quality cosmetics production lines. In terms of software, the advantages of manufacturers are reflected in their specialized technology, a group of qualified chemical engineers, and their ability to produce good products according to customer requirements.
Note: Once you identify a manufacturer, clearly communicate your requirements. Discuss product specifications, quality standards, pricing, delivery times, and other essential details.
6. Custom Sample
For an OEM makeup manufacturer, products are factors that can reflect its own strength. Therefore, before cooperating, you need to experience the sample’s skin feel, effect, materials, etc., and pay attention to whether the sample will cause allergies.
Here, I recommend a makeup manufacturer I have worked with before. Xiran Cosmetics from Guangzhou is a long-established makeup ODM/OEM factory that integrates professional planning, research and development, testing, and production of cosmetics. It has more than 15 years of production experience. It can not only provide R&D OEM but also provide one-stop, customized services as one of the top cosmetics manufacturers in China. Xiran makes high-end cosmetics, including lipstick, lip gloss, powder, eye shadow, mascara, liquid foundation and other products. As a world-class cosmetics manufacturer, the laboratory established by Xiran and engineers from South Korea and the United Kingdom can help brands thrive.
