Questions we hear most

Answers to the questions we hear most from brand owners starting their sampling journey.

How soon will my formula samples ship?

Standard catalog formulas are prepared within 3–5 business days. Custom formulas take about 7 business days, depending on active ingredient sourcing.

Is there a limit on how many formulas I can request?

No. LIZEE imposes no arbitrary caps on formula count. Whether you select from our market-tested benchmark catalog or require custom formulation development, we prepare 2 × 30ml prototypes for all required SKUs in your line-up.

Why must air freight be settled by T/T in advance?

Formula development and lab preparation are free. Air express is handled by a third-party freight forwarder, so the shipping cost must be prepaid before the courier collects your package. Alternatively, if you have your own freight forwarder in China, we can send your samples directly to their warehouse — we do not charge any additional shipping fee for this.

Can I get custom-printed packaging prototypes instead of lab bottles?

Yes. While standard formulation samples are provided in plain 30ml laboratory bottles, fully assembled prototypes featuring custom primary containers, silk-screen printing, and custom boxes are available upon request with a tailored quotation.

What's the difference between catalog and custom formulas?

Catalog formulas are market-proven bases — faster and more cost-effective, ready for private label. Custom formulas are developed from scratch to your brief and belong exclusively to your brand.

What do the 2 free revisions cover?

Sensory attributes within your original brief: viscosity, fragrance and absorption. Requests beyond the original brief are quoted as additional R&D.

Is my formula kept confidential?

Yes. We sign NDAs on request, and custom formulas are developed exclusively for you — they are never offered to or shared with any third party.

What is the Minimum Order Quantity (MOQ) after approving lab samples?

Once you approve your formula prototypes, LIZEE's production starts from 1,000 units per SKU for private label manufacturing, and 50 KG for bulk semi-finished liquid/cream formulations.

How do I initiate a formula trial for our brand?

Simply submit your target product categories and benchmarks through our inquiry form. LIZEE prepares tailored skincare lab samples (2 × 30ml per formula) without formulation fees, ensuring your team has adequate material for clinical and sensory validation.
