About
Designer Formulations. Novel Solutions.
Formulae 8 is an independent cosmetic R&D lab based in Sydney. We design products that delight, formulations that actually work, and processes that scale.
Our mission
We turn consumer insight into discovery. New ingredients, novel delivery systems, devices, and packaging — transformed into products with proven science, beautiful sensorial, and robust performance.
Founded by Danilo Lambino — 30+ years in cosmetic science, re-invigorated by curiosity, craftsmanship, and design thinking.
Nature nurtures ideas. Our ideas nurture nature.
Proven track record
International patents, award-winning technologies including Best in Beauty by Allure and International Technology Award by Cosmetics & Toiletries Magazine.
18 years of Formulae 8, 30+ in the industry
From naturals to microbiome, edgy and transformational textures, and low-carbon footprint, intentional and concept driven formulations.
Independently innovative
We are not tied to any supplier or contract manufacturer. You get signature, proprietary tech — not a me-too.
Nature-led
We draw inspiration from the natural world and give it back through careful selection of ingredients, materials, and processes.
