“It takes more time, more capital and more patience but we believe that having custom owned formulas, with clinically backed ingredients and studies, is worth the investment. Our rigorous approach gives us confidence that our customers see and feel the difference when they try our products. .” - Veriphy
The difference between Stock and Custom Formulas
Stock formulas are mainly “ready-to-go”, time-tested and proven formulations owned by manufacturers, and are typically chosen by brands that want to launch quickly into the market and don’t necessarily want to invest too much into high-priced clinicals and ingredients. Stock formulas don’t generally require further development or revisions except for a change to a desired aroma/fragrance.
On the other hand, custom formulas are “a truly unique product to the world” as says Matt Stearn, President of Innovative Cosmetic Labs, in a recent article on “The Case For And Against Stock Beauty Formulas” published in Beauty Independent. And continues: “This is a formula designed with the intention to deliver results and enhance the brand experience. Whether it is special active ingredients, a fragrance, or special processing of the batch, custom formulas are not meant to be moved from manufacturers and “shopped” around for the best price. Custom costs more because it costs more to R&D. The raw materials are usually more premium. The process is difficult but worthwhile for truly authentic brands” said Stearn.
Veriphy’s commitment to excellence in formulation
Veriphy Skincare’s specially formulated products using premium ingredients consistently ranks among the most expensive to be produced among manufacturers in the industry.

A star ingredient that delivers outstanding results
Veriphy's star ingredient: PhytoSpherix®. Derived from corn, this revolutionary plant-based form of glycogen has been clinically proven to hydrate, brighten, and rejuvenate the skin. In third-party clinical trials, participants reported:
