Formulate your beauty - Diploma in Formulating Natural Skincare
How to become a confident, skilled formulator from zero previous experience or if you have a gap in your knowledge
THIS COURSE IS CURRENTLY BEING UPDATED!
Ready to formulate amazing natural cosmetics?
Learning to make natural cosmetics just got a whole lot easier with my EFD method ™...
(...even if you have never made a skincare product in your life!)
Well, then. You are in the right place!
Our brand new course is based on our EFD method ™, which will teach you how to approach a formula, formulation method and troubleshooting. You will practise this method on 15 different products so you will be apply it again and again even after you've finished your studies with us.
WARNING!
Side effects of using our EFD method ™ include:
Being able to create a formula without needing to copy others. You will be able to design many cosmetic products that are effective and safe and most importantly, they will work well to solve a problem.
Being able to do your own research into raw cosmetic ingredients and apply the information confidently and accurately. Being able to analyse ingredient usage, contraindications, expected results and combinations that may elevate the product it is used in.
Being able to troubleshoot formulation trials. Even experienced chemists can rarely create the winning formula on the first try. You will be equipped to take your trial sample formula apart, and pinpoint and correct the issue.
Don’t believe me yet? Let me pull back the curtain and show you another method you will be learning and applying throughout your formulation journey:
"Selection to Perfection" SYSTEM
- You will be able to design a product from scratch after completing your market research to understand the requirements.
- You will recognise what characteristics your planned product should have to solve the problem it is designed for. You will know what kind of product you need, what scent it should have, what viscosity it should have and so on.
- The "Selection to Perfection" system will provide all the steps to create the best product possible. You just need to follow it!
About me
My name is Timi, I am a qualified and experienced Cosmetic Chemist and Teacher.
I have seen many students in the past who did exceptionally well and some who gave up on their dreams for all sorts of reasons; money, motivation, lack of direction or support.
I want to change that.
Online learning is fun; it is more flexible but can be less disciplined, often leading students to give up.
It is vital to me that you are not reading course materials full of fluff or giant fonts just to make the course look longer. I like to make sure you understand all that you read and that you can follow formulations.
All this will enable you to create your own designs without copying others. I want to bring you a more personalised approach. You will be in control of your time and investment in the course. Remember: a good formulator isn't born by reading a course but by practising, analysing and trying repeatedly.
Formulator Hub will bring you time-saving, affordable solutions so you'll have no excuse but to chase that dream of yours. I can't wait to meet you and help you cross the finish line!
This course is for you if...
- you want to use natural cosmetics but you find them too expensive
- you want to control what is in your cosmetic products but unsure where to start
- you find some formulating information online too confusing
- you want to learn directly from a qualified & experienced Cosmetic Chemist/ Teacher
- you dream about making your own skincare or about selling skincare to others

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between the Standard course and the VIP course?
The difference is the level of support you are getting.
In the Standard course, you can ask your questions in the course under each Lesson. The questions are to be related to said Lesson.
The VIP members, however, can talk directly to me in the Discord app within my office hours. The VIP support is not restricted to course materials; they can ask me about any formulations-related issues.
What is the duration of the course, and how long will I have access to the course materials?
The course access is 12 months. You can complete the course anytime within these 12 months. The Modules, however, will open weekly, not in one go.
Is the course self-paced, or does it follow a specific schedule?
The course is self-paced but I do recommend creating some sort of study schedule for yourself. The Modules open weekly, on Mondays. This means that if you do finish a Module before that, you will have some time to practise or source materials.
Can I access the course materials and resources even after the 12-month period has ended?
You certainly can, you will need to pay £25 a month until you wish to have access. Please email [email protected] to arrange this.
Are there any specific prerequisites or prior knowledge required to enroll in this course?
Ideally, you would need to have some formulating knowledge such as how to formulate facial oils, butters perhaps. The course does not include these types of formulations. Everything else, such as preservation or how to search for ingredients will be included in the course.
Will I receive any support or guidance during the formulation process?
Yes!
If you purchase the Standard package, you can ask any lesson-related questions at the end of the Lesson (bottom of the page).
If you purchase the VIP package, you can talk to me about any formulation-related issues in the Discord app within set office hours.
Can I ask questions or seek clarification during the course, and how will that support be provided?
Yes!
If you purchase the Standard package, you can ask any lesson-related questions at the end of the Lesson (bottom of the page).
If you purchase the VIP package, you can talk to me about any formulation-related issues in the Discord app within set office hours.
Is there a community or platform to interact with other students ?
Yes!
There is a closed Community area where you can chat with other students. This Community section is within this platform, not on Facebook.
Is there a refund policy if I'm not satisfied with the course?
As this is a Digital course, once you access the course, there will be no opportunity for a refund. If you are unsure if the course is right for you, please email me at [email protected] before purchasing the course. I will be happy to set up a 10 mins chat to help you decide.
How will I be assessed during the course, and are there any assignments or quizzes?
There are some quick quizzes after Modules and a Final Assignment at the end of the course. You will need to pass these (75% is required) to move on. The quizzes are short, perhaps five questions long to assess that you understood the Module.
What types of skincare products will I be able to formulate after completing the course?
You will be able to formulate:
- Toners, micellar waters
- Gels for face and body
- Cleansers - gel, foaming and cream cleansers for both face and body
- Emulsions - lotions, creams and butters for face and body
- Exfoliating products - physical and chemical exfoliants
- Solid products - moisturising bars, cleansing bars and and for face and body
- Deodorants - roll-on, balm and stick deodorants
Will I receive a certificate upon completion, and how will it benefit my career in the skincare industry?
You will receive a Certificate of Completion at the end of the course after completing it and passing all assignments. Unfortunately, there aren't many independent providers who can issue industry-recognised Diplomas. You can use the terms Qualified Formulator or Cosmetic Formulator, and you can enrich your CV by adding this course. The title will be helpful when establishing your brand since you will be a very knowledgable owner.
What kind of experience and credentials does the instructor have in the field of cosmetic chemistry?
I am a qualified Cosmetic Chemist and also a Teacher with nearly 20 years experience. I specialise in natural cosmetics, but I formulate all kinds of cosmetics from haircare, through make-up, oral and nail care. Your work will be assessed by me only and I will provide all course support.
