Science-backed. Brand-driven. Future-focused.
At NūLaboratories, we exist to bridge the gap between creative chemistry and on-shelf obsession.
We’re a team of chemists, trend analysts, and formulation experts united by a shared obsession: turning concepts into products that work — and that your customers love to use.
From early-stage startups to established global brands, we collaborate closely to craft formulas that embody your identity and stand up to the highest standards of safety, efficacy, and sensorial appeal.
By off shooting from SOS Beauty Labs, your brand gains access to scalable innovation, scientific validation, and speed unmatched in the industry. We also have the ability to loop in SOS Beauty Labs if a project becomes more involved, and brand assistance is needed.
Formulation is our craft. Partnership is our promise.
