I’ve just completed the Certificate in Cosmetic Stability Testing, and it’s been a very interesting learning experience. Initially, I found the idea of stability testing intimidating and sounding complicated, but the course broke it down beautifully. It explains the importance of stability testing for cosmetics and provides a clear overview of 20 different tests to consider. Now, I feel confident incorporating stability testing into my routine—and to my surprise, I’m genuinely excited to put this knowledge into practice!

Excellent course content and excellent course structuring.

I learned so much from this course. It gave me the information and confidence to apply for the Challenge Test Certifications for my cosmetic products.
Thank you.

Thank you for another inspirational, informative and well resourced and sequenced course, Formula Botanica! This is my last course in the Entrepreneurship Progarm and it was filled with fabulous content, videos, references, case studies and amazing workbooks.

Thank you for everything you do to support budding Indie beauty brands. I have thoroughly enjoyed the journey and will miss my courses though I know support and inspiration is always available through your social media and support networks. Your team, too, have been incredibly responsive and patient and I'm grateful to the whole team for this opportunity to learn from all of you.

The Formula Botanica Organic Skin Care Formulation course has been a great way to learn new skills,gain confidence and draw from the amazing enthusiasm the team have,there is so much help and information easily available, always new blogs to listen in on how other people are growing their businesses and news on ingredients and how to get best results from them, it has been an enjoyable course to complete and I would recommend it to anyone new to formulating or people who want to improve and add to the skills they already have,they have a great choice of courses to offer!

I wanted to formulate my own skincare products because of my sensitive skin and constant reactions to mainstream products. For a while, I relied on information from internet searches and DIY recipes on YouTube. But I was never fully satisfied—I wasn’t sure if those formulations were safe or if the ingredients were truly natural, synthetic, or chemical-based. I wanted something more: products that were effective, reliable, and safe.

When I signed up with Formula Botanica, I was nervous about whether I would understand everything or succeed in learning. But I was pleasantly surprised by how clearly and simply everything was explained without being overwhelming. Each lesson was detailed yet easy to follow, making the learning process incredibly smooth.

I’ve gained so much knowledge not just from the course, but also from the Formula Botanica blog and Facebook groups. The Lab and blog are treasure troves of detailed information about ingredients, formulations, and trending topics. The tutor forum and Facebook groups were invaluable as well, offering tips, support, and inspiration from tutors, students, mentors, and graduates.

It was a great experience! Being able to learn online at my own pace was amazing!

A very well organized course. As a students we get a lot of help and the mentors are answering to our questions in a very short time.

This course in brand management is as good as going to a business school.
The modules were excellent and easy to use.

Perfect! Learn in a way that is better than any other courses. The courses are very understandable and clear, which is helpful for learning efficiently.

This is a great and very informative course.

Just finished a course, but wtill have 5 more to go. Happy to keep on expanding my knowledge with the help of FB. Sometimes it's difficult to choose where to start from as there is an enormous amount of information on the platform, the community and The Lab, but I'm working my way through it :)

The certificate in facial masque therapy - very well documented in terms of the types of masks, well exemplified and enough to stimulate your creativity and generate a fountain of ideas!!! Good job!!!

The Advanced Diploma in Formulation was really good. It gave me the chance to learn more complex formulations and how/when to mix ingredients in the right phases. I had also the opportunity to observe and learn how to mix ingredients that work synergistically once they are mixed and how to maximise their individual benefits.

This course was exactly what I needed! 🙌 It made the process of formulation so easy to understand, especially for a visual learner like me—I absolutely loved the videos. 💡 What really stood out was how Formula Botanica shares multiple examples for each product, sparking creativity and helping you think outside the box. ✨

The Facebook group? A total lifesaver! I’d just search for solutions to my emulsion issues and find tons of relatable advice from other students. The student forum was another gem—whenever I had questions I couldn’t find answers to, the tutors were right there with quick and helpful responses. 💬👏

I took the older version of the course, but I’m still hooked on the blog posts and excited to keep learning new formulation techniques. 🌱 If you're into skincare formulation, this course is a must! 💕

Completing my Diploma course in Organic Skincare Formulation at Formula Botanica has been a transformative experience. The course gave me the knowledge and confidence to create professional-grade formulations using natural ingredients, something I had always dreamed of achieving.

The tutors were incredibly knowledgeable, approachable, and always ready to guide me. I’m so grateful for this journey and the skills I’ve gained, which have opened up many possibilities for my future in organic skincare.

I highly recommend Formula Botanica to anyone passionate about natural beauty!

I have taken several Formula Botanica courses and have been pleased with each one. In addition, the support from the student/graduate community and the tutors is invaluable. They all want to see each other succeed in their formulating journey.

The practical approach and detailed feedback gave me confidence in creating high-quality products.
Clear lessons and excellent tutor support make learning effective and enjoyable.

The program is easy to understand and the huge amount of knowledge I received is priceless. I can finally with confidence create the safe formula myself instead of chasing ready-made formulas. The staff is lovely, professional and always helpful.

The course outlines are well written, very detailed and insightful. Simple language and delivery, so anyone can read through and understand very easily. It's a beautiful course, every one taking a formula botanica course MUST add this certificate to their line of courses.
