Cosmetic Bases

Not everyone has the time or ability to manufacture Cosmetics from scratch. At New Directions Aromatics, we have created a line of top quality Bases to make product formulations an easy process; allowing you to focus on your unique fragrance combinations, coloring, fortifying with extracts & vitamins and of course decorations and your branded packaging.

Our range is very extensive - everything from Shampoo Base, Cream Base with jojoba, Lotion Base with Jojoba - to the more consumer specific Body Butter Base, Massage Gel Base, and Facial Scrub Bases. If you need Conditioner Base, we have it, and if you need Shower Gel Base, we have that too, each formulated to be extremely robust. Anyone can now make sophisticated formulations from the comfort of their own kitchen!

Every one of our bases is designed specifically to support the addition of Essential Oils and Fragrant Oils.

Try adding Carrot Seed Essential Oil, Lemon Teatree Essential Oil, Geranium Essential Oil, or Chamomile Essential Oil. In minutes you can create your own Lavender Rosewood Cream, or your own Vanilla Peppermint Lotion. With our range of over 250 stock essential oils - Anise Star, Cedarwood, Cognac, Bergamot, Eucalyptus, Mandarin, Sweet Orange, Davana - just to name a few, the possibilities are endless!

Even better, try adding various botanical extracts for that exotic fortification - Ginseng Root, Green Tea Extract, or Nutgrass. If you think you require colorants, we have those too. You can try blending with our range of Lab Color products, or try adding natural Australian colored clays for an exotic label that matches your exotic product.

It is that simple, and it is that easy!

As with all Manufacturing processes, New Directions Aromatics recommends Lab-Scale testing prior to producing larger scale commercial runs. As a guideline, additives should not exceed 1% of the entire product by weight (recommended level of essential oils is 0.5%). Some essential oils such as lemongrass or citrus oils may need to be used in lower concentrations due to the effects on emulsifying ingredients and packaging materials especially plastics.
