Can I use locally sourced New Mexico botanical ingredients with a contract manufacturer?

Yes, many small-batch cosmetic CMs in the Southwest are experienced with regional botanicals such as yucca extract, desert sage, jojoba, and green chile seed oil. You will need a certificate of analysis (COA) and ideally a safety data sheet (SDS) for any custom-sourced raw material before a reputable CM will accept it into their production. AJ Cosmo Labs connects you with both ingredient suppliers and manufacturers who work with specialty actives.
