Personal care spans everything from shampoo to deodorant to toothpaste — a diverse category with a common requirement: consistent performance, category-specific safety testing, and packaging that survives a shower shelf. PMG manufactures personal care products for brands ranging from indie DTC launches to national retail.
Across body, hair, and oral care, we manufacture the products consumers actually use every day — and read the label of every time.
Personal care products span multiple regulatory sub-categories: some are cosmetics, some are OTC drugs (fluoride toothpaste, antiperspirant), some are quasi-drug in international markets. We identify the regulatory pathway for your specific product before formulation begins.
Hair care is technically demanding. Sulfate-free, silicone-free, color-safe, curly-hair, scalp-specific — each positioning requires different formulation choices. Our chemists have deep experience across the full range.
Personal care consumers read ingredient labels. We formulate clean-label personal care products that deliver real performance, not just a short ingredient list.
Personal care sits at the intersection of cosmetic and OTC drug regulation. Antiperspirant, fluoride toothpaste, and anti-dandruff shampoos are all OTC drugs under FDA monograph — meaning Drug Facts labeling, OTC establishment registration, and pharmaceutical-grade GMP. Pure cosmetics fall under MoCRA. Our regulatory team identifies which pathway your specific product requires before a single batch is made.
Personal care is the category where performance and positioning have to work together. A formula that underdelivers destroys the brand story.
