Consistency is related to the ability to control production variables and processes. For example, control the formulations used, the types of raw materials selected, the sanitation protocols followed, and the technical capabilities of cosmetic chemists. And create accurate and comprehensive documents, and then work according to these documents for production, which is very important to control product quality and consistency.

High quality refers to specific standards for product attributes and characteristics. “Quality” is usually operated and defined based on objective requirements, such as color, odor, viscosity, and pH. It also includes issues such as safety and purity. GMP can help manufacturers maintain high quality in each batch of products.

GMP for cosmetics helps manufacturers to achieve product flow and high-quality production.

GMP is equivalent to production quality assurance, which can ensure that the products manufactured by the manufacturer meet the quality standards for its intended use. Through GMP, cosmetics manufacturers embed operating rules and organizational guidelines into the entire production process to continuously improve product quality while saving the cost of defective products.
