Get your cosmetic product safety report with less stress

CPSRs for smaller producers who want to avoid paperwork panic and launch their cosmetics quickly, confidently and safely.

No more feeling out of your depth

I’m here to take the overwhelm out of getting cosmetic safety reports

You’ve got a great idea for a new cosmetic product. You’re confident people will love it and that it’ll sell like hot cakes. But, how are you going to fill out all that complex paperwork without getting in a spin?

It all comes down to working with the right cosmetic safety assessor. And that’s where I come in.

How I stop the spiral

A simple, supported process for getting your CPSR

Easy to follow process and step-by-step instructions

Forget paperwork panic. I’ll guide you through my simple three-step process from start to finish, and give you easy step-by-step instructions for filling out your paperwork.

Extra support and guidance

Whether you need extra support to complete your forms, guidance on other aspects of cosmetic safety compliance, or you need to correct a non-compliant formula, I’m here to help.

Two to three week turnaround time

You’ll get your report in just 2 – 3 weeks so you can move on to your next compliance procedure and start selling sooner.

Hi there, I’m Geraldine

Chartered Chemist and cosmetic safety assessor to over 600 UK and EU brands

Before setting up GCS, I spent several years working as a principal scientist at an international pharmaceutical company. During that time, I learned how to turn highly complex regulations into easy-to-follow processes.

Now, I use those skills to make it far easier for smaller producers to get their cosmetic safety reports, and stay on the right side of the UK and EU cosmetic safety regulations.

In addition to holding a Master’s Degree, I have a Certificate in Safety Assessment of Cosmetics in the EU. I am also a Chartered Member of the Royal Society of Chemistry and a member of the Society of Cosmetic Scientists.

You can find out more about me (including why I’ll never say I make getting a CPSR “easy”) on my About page.

Forget paperwork panic

How I take the confusion out of cosmetic safety paperwork

If the idea of filling out complicated scientific forms has you feeling dizzy, I’m here to help.

When you work with me, you get access to my step-by-step video instructions for filling out your CPSR paperwork. In them, I tell you exactly what information to put in each section and explain any jargon in everyday terms. Plus, I’m always happy to give you extra support via phone or email if you need it. 

That way, there’ll be no guesswork, no need to google scientific terms, and no back-and-forth emails to correct your paperwork. Instead, you simply follow the instructions to fill out your forms, send them to me along with your payment, and wait two to three weeks for your CPSR. Cue the sigh of relief!
