For cosmetics and beauty products, safety is a paramount concern. These products are applied directly on human skin, including such sensitive areas as eyes and lips, and they must never cause an adverse reaction, even during prolonged exposure. To ensure a beauty product's quality and safety, one must make sure that each of its many ingredients is safe, and the production process observed to the letter.

With Hawkeye Inspections' comprehensive quality assurance services, you can truly secure the quality and safety of your cosmetics and beauty products. Our product inspections can be performed on the site of production at any stage of the process, to ensure that manufacturing happens exactly to your specifications. In parallel, sample testing in our laboratories helps ensure your products abide to destination market’s regulations and norms for consumer safety and product performance.
