In today’s cosmetics industry, effectiveness and innovation are at the forefront, and surfactant products have established themselves as an essential component of modern skincare. At artefactum, we offer a wide range of cutting-edge surfactant products, especially cleansing foams, which are growing in popularity.
The Magic of Surfactants: High-Level Cleansing
Surfactants are the true workhorses of cosmetic formulation. They possess the unique ability to break down oils and dirt on the skin and effectively remove them without disrupting the skin's natural balance. These properties shine in cleansing products like foams. Cleansing foams are gentle on the skin, easy to apply, and leave a pleasantly refreshed feeling after use. No wonder they are so popular in daily skincare routines!
Mild Surfactants for Maximum Skin-Friendliness
At artefactum, we deliberately use mild surfactants to offer our customers not only effective but also especially skin-friendly products. Mild surfactants are known to respect the skin barrier and minimize irritation. They clean the skin thoroughly without drying or irritating it, making them ideal for sensitive skin and daily use. With our selection of products, we guarantee a cleansing experience that is gentle yet powerful.
Modern and Innovative: Foams for Every Skin Type
Our surfactant products are not only effective but also highly versatile. Whether it's gentle cleansing for sensitive skin, intensive cleansing for oily skin, or luxurious foams for a relaxing care routine – at artefactum, you’ll find the right product for every skin type and need. The light, airy texture of the foams allows for a deep cleanse without drying out the skin, leaving it feeling soft and smooth.
Focus on Sustainability and Skin-Friendliness
Modern surfactant products are not only convincing in their effectiveness but also in their composition. When developing our products, we place great emphasis on skin-friendly and environmentally conscious ingredients. Many of our foam products are based on mild, biodegradable surfactants that cleanse the skin gently without causing irritation. Furthermore, we minimize the use of unnecessary additives to ensure a pure and skin-friendly product.

On July 26, 2023, Regulation (EU) 2023/1545 was published in the Official Journal of the European Union, bringing significant changes to the existing Cosmetics Regulation (EC) No. 1223/2009 regarding the labeling of fragrance allergens in cosmetic products.
What's new?
The new regulation adds a total of 56 additional fragrance allergens to Annex III of the Cosmetics Regulation. These must be labeled when present in concentrations of 0.001% in leave-on products (products that remain on the skin) and 0.01% in rinse-off products (products that are washed off). The labeling will follow the same principles as before, meaning that affected manufacturers will need to adjust their product labels.
This expanded labeling requirement particularly affects numerous essential oils and natural extracts.
Adjustments to existing entries in Annex III
Existing entries in Annex III have also been modified. For instance, common substance names have been updated to the latest version of the Common Ingredients Glossary (CosIng). In addition, similar substances have been grouped together to simplify and streamline the labeling process. Special attention should also be given to products marked with ** in Annex III. These must comply with the new restrictions during the transitional period starting August 15, 2023.
Key deadlines for cosmetic producers:
As a producer and distributor of cosmetic products, it's important to keep the following transitional deadlines in mind:
- Since August 15, 2023, entries in Annex III marked with ** can no longer be marketed if they exceed the new maximum limits.
- By July 31, 2026, only cosmetic products that meet the new labeling requirements may be placed on the market.
- From July 31, 2028, only compliant products may be offered on the EU market.
These deadlines provide companies with the time to phase out non-compliant products and make the necessary adjustments.

The cosmetics industry is currently experiencing an exciting shift towards waterless products, and we at artefactum are proud to offer our customers a wide range of modern powder products. From dry shower gels to peel-off masks, tooth powders, and facial and body powders – our innovative solutions are setting new standards in beauty care.
Waterless and Safe: An Unbeatable Duo
One of the biggest advantages of powder products lies in their waterless nature. Water is often the main component in traditional cosmetic products and simultaneously the greatest risk factor for microbiological contamination. Germs and bacteria need water to survive and multiply. Without water, this risk is practically eliminated. Therefore, our powder products offer an extremely low microbiological risk, which, when handled correctly, can even be zero. This level of safety is an invaluable benefit, especially for customers who demand the highest purity and longevity from their cosmetic products.
Focus on Sustainability: No Water Wasted
In a world where resource scarcity is becoming increasingly important, waterless cosmetic products are not only safe but also environmentally friendly. By consciously omitting water from our products, we help conserve valuable natural resources. While conventional liquid cosmetics require large amounts of water, with powder products, customers use only the amount of water they need. For example, with our powders, water is manually added just before application, ensuring no waste. This allows for a personalized usage and supports a sustainable lifestyle.
Powder Products: Versatile and Innovative
Our powder products not only offer clear advantages in terms of safety and sustainability but are also incredibly versatile. Whether as a dry shower gel for a refreshing, water-free cleanse, a peel-off mask for an intense care experience, a tooth powder for bright white teeth, or a facial and body powder for a mattifying and nourishing effect – the application possibilities are almost limitless.
With our wide range of powder products, we offer innovative solutions for modern cosmetics today and tomorrow. We believe that waterless products are not just a trend but the future of cosmetics. They combine safety, sustainability, and effectiveness in a way that meets the needs of our environmentally conscious and quality-oriented customers.

The cosmetics industry faces significant challenges when it comes to developing marketable sunscreen products. Many conventional sunscreen filters are increasingly falling out of favor or are even being banned by the EU. These developments have inspired us to set a new standard for safe and effective sun protection.
UVA and UVB rays are dangerous for the skin, as they can cause short-term damage such as sunburn, and in the long term, increase the risk of skin cancer and lead to premature skin aging. Therefore, it is essential to protect yourself from these harmful rays with appropriate sunscreens, such as those with UV filters.
We are proud to present our Clean Beauty Sun Series – an innovative product line that meets the highest standards. This series includes sunscreens with various SPF levels: SPF 20, SPF 30, SPF 50, and SPF 50+. Our products are distinguished by the use of synthetic filters, carefully selected to be not only effective but also completely non-controversial.
For those who prefer natural ingredients, we also offer a sunscreen with zinc oxide, providing reliable protection. Zinc oxide is a mineral filter known for its skin-friendly and environmentally safe properties.
Our Clean Beauty Sun Series combines modern sun protection with a conscious approach to skin and environmental care. Whether you prefer synthetic or mineral filters – we have the right solution for you.
Discover the new era of sun protection and protect your skin with confidence!

High tech research in cosmetics manufacturing
We are always looking for the latest active ingredients and technologies. For this reason, too, we took part in the NANOMAR cluster project. In this project, we have set ourselves the goal of producing a collagen wound dressing with micro and nanoparticles from marine organisms. This should promote wound healing, but also work against antibiotic-resistant germs.
This project has now been successfully completed with our partners.
