About Creative Cosmetics
The people behind your product matter
So does how it’s made
We’re Creative Cosmetics, a UK-based manufacturer of high-quality colour cosmetics with a focus on small and medium batch runs.
From lipstick to primer to hybrid skincare products, we help beauty brands bring their ideas to life through expert formulation, flexible production, and genuine partnership.
We make things well, and we make them with care, for the highest quality results.
We’re small enough to care
Big enough to deliver
Creative Cosmetics has been making exceptional beauty products for over 30 years.
Based in Ipswich, our lab, production line, and packing team all work under one roof, making us faster, more responsive, and easier to work with than many larger or overseas manufacturers.
We specialise in colour cosmetics with skincare benefits, and we support clients through every step: formulation, compliance, testing, filling, and beyond.
What really sets us apart?
A willingness to collaborate, solve problems, and say yes, especially when others won’t.
Meet The Team
Graham McGregor
Managing Director
Graham brings clarity, calm, and deep operational experience to Creative Cosmetics. He’s the steady hand steering the business and the first to pick up the phone when a brand needs guidance.
“We’re here to wrap our arms around your idea and walk it through the process. Whether you're starting from scratch or scaling up, we’re in it with you.”
He champions practical thinking, honest communication, and a real sense of partnership, leading with a light touch, but deep care.
Katarina Kozlikova
Lead Chemist & Product Development Expert
With nearly 20 years of experience in product formulation, regulatory compliance, and innovation, Katarina leads our lab and technical development with passion and precision.
“For me, it’s all about balance — science and creativity, structure and intuition. I love helping brands bring their ideas to life in a way that’s technically sound and beautifully made.”
She specialises in true-colour cosmetics and makeup products with skincare benefits that do more than just look good. She is a strong advocate for sustainable thinking, ingredient education, and transparency across the development process.
And the team that makes it all happen…
From first fill to final pack, every product that leaves our lab has passed through the hands of our in-house manufacturing team. They’re the skilled presence behind the scenes, mixing, pouring, pressing, cleaning, checking, adjusting, and bringing consistency to every batch we make.
They’ve been with us for years. They know the machinery inside out. And they care deeply about getting it right, every single time.
“We’re proud of what we make — and how we make it.”
Their craftsmanship and care is at the heart of what sets Creative apart.
