Cosmetic products require testing for objective texture analysis as well as the performance of applicators, dispensers, and packaging.

 

TEXTURE ANALYSIS – In much the same way as food is analyzed for its texture characteristics, the performance and quality of cosmetics can also be objectively tested. The quantified results can then be applied to product formulation and subsequently to routine quality-control testing.

 

CONTAINER CAP TORQUE TESTING - Testing the mechanical performance of cosmetic container caps is a crucial part of the quality-control process for cosmetics manufacturers. The consumer experience of the cosmetic product is inextricably linked with the ease-to-open containers so it is vital that the expected release torque value of each cap is optimal.

This live webinar will address force and torque testing of cosmetic products (lipstick) and packaging (container caps) with a software-driven tester.

 

What You’ll Learn in the Webinar and Live Demonstration:

  • Overview of Cosmetic Quality Testing
  • Industries where testing is required
  • Selecting the ideal testers and test fixtures
  • Lipstick Break Test
  • Container Torque Test
  • Factors that affect repeatability and consistency
