Bringing a new beauty product to market in 2025 is a high-stakes endeavor. In a recent Beauty Independent feature, top consultants and industry insiders revealed the true costs of developing an A-level product. The answers were eye-opening, with some contributors providing total figures in the seven-figure range. And those figures don’t include the product marketing spend to gain visibility in the market.
Understanding regulatory compliance is another dimension that can add an additional burden on emerging and independent brands looking to launch a new product. Keeping up to date on the latest federal regulations, like MoCRA, along with state-by-state regulations, can be time-consuming and overwhelming.
Ensuring that your product is consistent, effective, and compliant may still not be enough to guarantee that it will be approved for the shelf in major retailers. Making sure your formula is free of ingredients found on cosmetic blacklists domestically and internationally may also be necessary. Preparing and futureproofing your formulation to meet upcoming regulations and predicting consumer preferences is another challenge.
