@vicdaniellem yes it is interesting as there isn't much content from students' perspectives online. I have been looking for about 2 years now. I'm still on the fence deciding which direction I want to take right now. Thanks for responding.
@@sweetmisstea that’s such a good point - I was having so much trouble finding other students online too! I would definitely check out IPCS and send them an email with any questions you have. So far, the modules I’m studying have been packed with so much good information, and they always have someone available to email with or get on a call to discuss anything you need. Good luck narrowing down your options!!
Hi, congrats on your journey! I ran across your channel and love your content. I make body and facial care products. I'm self taught and do quite well. However, I'm looking into attending school for cosmetic formulation. I want to learn everything. Keep up the awesome work! BTW, is there a particular app/software that you use to take notes on your iPad? I'm trying to go digital instead of a bookcase of binders.
I came across your page. I’m looking to find the best way to become a cosmetic chemist. I’m going to look into the school you mentioned. My plan is to get a degree but im mother or 3 and one on the way 😅. Time is limited and I want to get done a little faster. I also have a hair and skin line. I took a break but I do plan on coming back full force
Just found your channel ❤ I started my small home skincare business last October and started this self-taught journey back in 2021. I would love to study to become certified cosmetic chemist one day 🫶🏽 spending positive energy your way.. following your journey
Good luck with your course! I am following your footsteps. I am also starting a natural skin care business ( I am hesitant to say company because I will start it in my dining room coverted to formulating lab). Like you, I have a 9-5, and planning to enroll in Formula Botanica. I love that you are and eco-friendly company. Wishing you massive sales!
Thank you again so much!! With your gardening background, I'm sure you have so much knowledge of herbs and other natural ingredients to use, so I'm wishing you SO much success with your business 🤗 I've heard great things about the Formula Botanica courses as well! Thank you for your comments 💚
Thank you! I’m doing the Diploma of Personal Care Formulation through the Institute of Personal Care Science. This is the most comprehensive course you can take through IPCS, but they have other shorter certificate courses that you can take too. I highly highly highly recommend them lol - I’m not even a quarter of the way through my studies yet and I’ve learned SO much it’s crazy 🙌🏾 I hope you find the perfect program!
Thank you!! Definitely! Biochem is a great start, and then I definitely recommend focusing on cosmetic chemistry at some point too so that you can get all of the specifics for this industry. Good luck out there 🤗
@@vicdaniellemThanks you so so much! I really appreciate this and i do not take this for granted. I'll be so happy to have the privilege to learn from you . I'll love to have you as a mentor
Hi, enjoying your channel, just found it. If you don’t mind sharing what program do you use when taking notes on the iPad? I’ve been trying to use that approach (iPad:pencil) and it’s been challenging! Any info appreciated! ❤
Hi! Thank you so much 🤗 Oooh, good question!! I’ll include this in my next vlog to show my whole process a bit more, but I use an online inventory system called Craftybase to get my product formulas and batches ready, and then GoodNotes on my iPad to actually take notes. I swear by these two, so I’ll definitely show more the next time I film
I just found your channel and I love it. I’m also studying cosmetic science. So cool seeing someone else studying it as well!!
I’m SO happy you’re here, thank you so much!! I’ll definitely keep sharing what I’m learning from the course - and good luck on your studies too! 🫶🏾
You are so cool! Have you done a video on how you started your business and how to get sales? I’m very inspired.
Hi Victoria! Congrats! I love your content. Share more of your experience with IPCS please. Keep the content coming. ❤
Thank you so much!! I wasn't sure how interesting the course content would be, so this is great to see! I'll definitely keep sharing 🤗

Congrats. I am thinking about doing this next year. What program are you doing because I am so confused on different ones.
