Where Global-Grade Science Meets Pakistani Skin Expertise

INTRODUCTION — The Science Engine Behind ELIXIR

ELIXIR Labs is the scientific core of our brand — where globally sourced actives, advanced formulation science, and clinical research come together to create skincare that outperforms imported products while being perfectly suited for Pakistani skin and climate.

While most brands simply "mix ingredients," ELIXIR operates like a miniature global R&D ecosystem, ensuring every formula meets:

✔ International cosmetic science standards
✔ Pakistani climate and melanin suitability
✔ Dermatologist-approved safety benchmarks
✔ Long-term clinical performance

Our mission is simple:

To build world-class skincare in Pakistan — powered by real science, real testing, and real results.

🧪 SECTION 1 — Global Ingredient Sourcing Network

ELIXIR Labs only formulates using internationally certified, high-purity ingredients, sourced from:

🇯🇵 Japan 
🇰🇷 South Korea 
🇫🇷 France 
🇺🇸 USA 
🇦🇺 Australia 
🇨🇦 Canada 

Our suppliers adhere to:

• GMP (Good Manufacturing Practices)

• ISO 22716 Cosmetic Regulations

• EU Cosmetic Ingredient Safety Standards

• FDA-acknowledged quality benchmarks

💡 Why this matters:
Local manufacturing alone cannot match global consistency.
So we import the finest ingredients → formulate them in Pakistan → for your skin.

🔬 SECTION 2 — ELIXIR Labs Formulation Philosophy

Every formula goes through a strict internal development pipeline:

1. Skin Need Discovery

We study:

✔ Pakistani humidity
✔ UV index
✔ Air pollution
✔ Common concerns (pigmentation, acne, dehydration)
✔ Melanin response patterns

This ensures every product is made for your real skin, not a foreign climate.

2. Ingredient Synergy Mapping

Our chemists evaluate:

• Active–active synergy

• Irritation potential

• Molecular weight compatibility

• pH stability

• Antioxidant balance

• Melanin reaction profiles

Example:
Niacinamide + Hyaluronic Acid + Alpha Arbutin → a perfect trio for Pakistani skin with spots, dehydration, and dullness.

3. Prototype Creation (3–7 versions)

Multiple early prototypes are created to test:

✔ Skin feel
✔ Absorption time
✔ Oil control
✔ Hydration retention
✔ Compatibility under sunscreen
✔ Safety for acne-prone skin

4. Technical Stress Testing

Formulations undergo real scientific tests:

• Freeze-thaw cycles

• Heat endurance

• Light sensitivity

• pH stability

• Viscosity retention

• Microbial safety

If a formula fails ANY stage → it is reformulated.
