Always go to oil for all products. Consistent good quality and excellent price.
I am so happy I with this recipe and assessment! If you're not new to liquid soap making I highly recommend it. It creates a beautiful lathering soap and very easy to make with videos available. Don't be afraid of liquid soap making! Thank you to all CSS team, all your hard work is appreciated :)
The product makes up beautifully and the combination of a ready made CPSR is an absolute dream; making an otherwise very complex process very user friendly and transparent meaning that the focus as a small business can be on other areas of compliance.
Thank you
I love this assessment, the recipe is easy to follow and Tanias video is super helpful to check consistency and how it should be looking! My husband (aka guinea pig) absolutely loves it, he’s threatened divorce if he finds his personal stash empty when he wants to use it 😂
I ordered a CPSR Beef Tallow kit from Cosmetic Safety Solutions. The service i received was outstanding. The order was delivered next day together with the Recipe and easy to follow Method to allow me to manufacture my first batch with complete success. The follow up communication via e mail was brilliant and answered all of my subsequent questions speedily. Within one week i was able to refine my manufacture process and produce Tallow Balm and Whipped Tallow ready for market. I would not hesitate to recommend Cosmetic Safety Solutions to anyone looking for a professional partner in the supply of Skin Care products. Outstanding.
Wow, I cant say enough great things about this recipe and assessment, the fragrances are gorgeous, the micas are beautiful to work with and the recipe is simple but pure indulgence. Outstanding CSS once again 👏
Started making these soaps and they are wonderful. Lather is great and the smell is amazing.
I use this personally and it is just brilliant. It transforms skin and a little really does go a long way. I have lots of repeat customers of all ages for this and they all love it too.
Brilliant value for money. The Recipe is lovely with a good choice. The ingredients are excellent quality
This has to be one of the only RH oils that doesn't smell a bit rancid after time. The quality is really really good and I am a repeat purchaser.
Omg it’s absolutely gorgeous but then again all your ingredients are the best. I won’t shop anywhere else now
I'm thrilled with the body butter recipe, and the scent blends. The texture is great, feels lovely and luxurious on the skin. My customers are going to love it! Super quick turnaround as well. I got the CPSR in a few days!

Made Using a Base? Here’s What Comes Next
If you are developing products using these cosmetic bases and intend to sell them, the next step is confirming that your final formulation meets UK cosmetic regulations and is fully documented.
Because we supply bases and write Cosmetic Product Safety Reports, we understand how formulation and compliance connect. This allows us to identify issues early and prevent avoidable delays in your approval process.
What happens next:
- We review your base and any additional cosmetic ingredients included in your formulation
- We check the documentation and identify anything missing
- We tell you if any changes are needed before the assessment
- We provide a clear, no-obligation quote for your CPSR
There are no consultancy fees, no hidden costs and no obligation to proceed. When you are ready, contact us to discuss your formulation and CPSR requirements.
Bases FAQs
Do I still need a CPSR if I use a base?
We provide a CPSR with our bases on purchase. However, if you customise the base by adding ingredients such as fragrance or essential oils, a new CPSR will be required for the final formulation.
Can I customise these bases?
Yes, you can customise these bases with your chosen ingredients, provided the final formulation remains compliant with UK cosmetic regulations. Please see the individual base product information for more about how they can be customised. A bespoke CPSR will be needed when adjusting the formula, and we have a range of ready-to-buy CPSRs for the bases with set additions.
Can one CPSR cover multiple products?
If you are using one of our bases and simply adding essential or fragrance oils, we can offer a bespoke package CPSR. Contact our team for more information.
