How does sampling work before bulk production?
You approve a sample before bulk production starts. Send your brief, receive a sample of the formula, test it, give feedback, and the formula is adjusted if needed. Only the sample you confirm goes to bulk — at MOQ 500–1,000 units per SKU.
What are the sampling steps?
Brief
Formula direction, product type, pack idea, quantity, target market.
Sample
The factory team makes a sample from a ready formula or a custom formula.
Feedback
You test the sample and say what to keep or change — texture, scent, feel.
Adjust
The formula is adjusted if needed, and you review the new sample.
Confirm
You approve the sample. Only then does bulk production start.
How much does a sample cost, and how long does it take?
Sample fee, sample lead time and the number of revisions are confirmed per order — they are not published as fixed figures on this site, because they depend on the formula and the changes you ask for. Ask for them with your brief on WhatsApp or by email to info@amyskinoem.com, and they will be confirmed before sampling starts.
What should you check in a sample?
- Texture and feel on skin — does it match the story you want to tell?
- Scent — is it right for your brand?
- Pack fit — does the formula work in the bottle, jar or tube you chose?
- Label and claims — do they fit what your market allows?
What happens after you confirm?
Once you approve the sample, pilot, mass production and QC follow — steps 3 to 5 of the 6-step OEM / ODM process — and packaging and delivery is step 6. Nothing goes to bulk before you approve it.
