Every year, the change of season boosts demand for hair and nail care products. For brands in the sector, this seasonal increase represents a business opportunity that requires a solid formula and production capacity capable of meeting demand on time.
At Lleó Productos Naturales we develop and manufacture third-party hair and nail supplement ranges tailored to each brand ‘s strategy and product catalogue.
Formulation Criteria and Regulatory Compliance
The commercial success of a hair supplement range depends both on the effectiveness of the formula and on its legal viability in terms of labelling. When developing your brand’s formula, we work around three key areas:
Authorised claims: we select nutrients such as biotin, zinc and selenium, with health claims recognised in the European Union, so that your brand can communicate benefits that are supported by the applicable regulations.
High-demand active ingredients: we incorporate commercially attractive ingredients such as keratin, L-cysteine and silicon, always ensuring that they comply with current legislation.
Quality and dosage: we define the form and functional dose of each ingredient to ensure product consistency from one batch to the next.
Format and Dosage: Decisions That Define the Product
A hair and nail supplement range usually involves continuous use over several months, something your brand needs to anticipate from the formulation stage. This determines the daily dose, the number of units per pack and also the format, which can range from the classic capsule to powder when the formula contains collagen.
There is also a scheduling issue that many brands overlook.
To be on the shelves inSeptember, development should ideally begin in spring. At Lleó, we support brands throughout this entire process, from ingredient selection and regulatory compliance right through to production, to ensure the end result is solid.
If your brand wants to have its hair and nail range ready for next autumn, now is a good
time to start developing it.
