Independence
No manufacturer kickbacks. Ever.
We sit upstream of manufacturing and take nothing from it. The formula is chosen because it is right, not because someone already makes it.
About the practice
Formulation is engineered, not assembled
Formulyn is a boutique nutraceutical and cosmetic formulation consultancy, crafting evidence-led supplement, skincare, and wellness formulations, from raw molecular brief to regulatory-ready product, without manufacturing conflicts.
We start where the catalogue stops
Formulyn was founded on a specific frustration: product development is usually constrained by what contract manufacturers already produce, rather than by what the evidence supports.
So we sit upstream of manufacturing. Formulyn is an independent R&D function, loyal to the evidence, the regulator, and your roadmap, and to nothing else. Not to a manufacturer's quota, not to an ingredient supplier's margin.
What you receive is a complete, defensible formula and the regulatory dossier to distribute it. The workings come with it.

Principles
Four commitments, and what they cost us
[02]
Evidence
Peer-reviewed literature as default.
Every active is defended by published work. Where the evidence is thin, we say so in writing rather than quietly rounding up.
[03]
Discretion
Mutual NDA on serious briefs.
Formulations, roadmaps, and commercial context stay yours. A mutual NDA is available before any sensitive disclosure.
[04]
Velocity
Fixed-price, fixed-scope phases.
Scope is agreed up front and priced up front. No open-ended retainers, no billable drift, and a decision gate at the end of every phase.
Who you work with
Leadership rooted in science. Driven by purpose
The people behind the practice: the science it stands on, and the way it is run.
