COSMOYA LABORATORY
Cosmetic full service laboratory in Gironde
COSM
The abbreviation for cosmetics, of course.
This is the core of our expertise and is associated with the words: Cosmetics,
Dermo-cosmetics, Clean Beauty,
Conscious Beauty and Minimalist Beauty.
OYA
Sand reed, dune rush.
This plant is very common in
Nouvelle-Aquitaine, it clings to the dunes to hold the sand in place and vibrates in the wind. We even have an extract in the lab with oxidizing properties.
Located in the heart of the Montesquieu technopole business incubator in Martillac,
the COSMOYA laboratory is local and easy to access. Thanks to our close links with local companies, we can develop technological synergies to support your projects.
​
Our mission is to offer everyone the opportunity to create their own cosmetics: brand owners and suppliers of original ingredients alike.
OUR VALUES
CREATIVITY
For us, innovation is more than just inventing a new formula.
It's about creating synergies by combining materials in optimal formulas.
It's about thinking outside the box.
It means thinking differently.
It's about stepping back to find inspiration.
So your cosmetics will be unique.
CONSCIOUSNESS​
Aware of the impact of the cosmetics industry on our planet, we think about cosmetics in a new, more responsible way, favoring above all the natural and the authentic. Without neglecting effectiveness and sensoriality.
We're also aware of the complexity of the technical aspects involved in creating cosmetics, so we're with you every step of the way, from scientific advice to bringing your products to market.
CONNECTIONS
"Alone we go faster, together we go further".
​
With COSMOYA, we want to create links by establishing partnerships with players in the New Aquitaine industry to optimize developments, and by enhancing the value of local resources in our formulas.
​
In this way, we will encourage the emergence of direct synergies with technology clusters.
"Science without conscience is but the ruin of the soul"

THE FOUNDER:
MARIE-ODILE HECHT
'I've always seen cosmetics as a creative space.
Touching and testing all possible textures and colors in order to get to know and recognize them has long been one of my favorite pastimes. It was then quite natural for me to turn to scientific studies and do a Master's degree specializing in Cosmetics.
I worked for some twenty years in various laboratories. I had the chance to work for major international groups and SMEs, studying innovative raw materials and creating unique and varied formulas for all types of clientele.
Cosmetics is a field I've always found fascinating.
In this field, creativity is driven as much by the brands that offer advances at the cutting edge of scientific innovation as by consumers, who are increasingly concerned about the composition of their everyday products.
That's why today, with COSMOYA, I want to support all the brands that want to convey strong values to create the cosmetics of tomorrow.'
