Build your skincare brand in China the right way.
A 1v1 strategy call with our China manufacturing team. Designed for founders launching or scaling skincare, haircare, and cosmetics brands. Walk away with a vetted manufacturer shortlist, a comprehensive production plan, and a clear path from formulation to first shipment.
Watch before you proceed.
₦450,000 · Limited slots per month
Most skincare brands fail during their first production batch.
Cosmetics manufacturing in China rewards founders with the right factory relationships and punishes everyone else. Here's what we see derail African beauty brands, week after week.
Wrong factory, wrong category
Most factories on Alibaba sell across categories they can't actually formulate. You order a serum from a soap factory, you get soap in a serum bottle.
Formulas that fail in heat & humidity
A formulation that tests fine in Guangzhou splits, separates, or grows mould by the time it lands in Lagos. Most factories never test for African conditions.
MOQs that bankrupt new brands
Founders commit to 5,000 unit MOQs for a hero product before validating demand. One wrong formulation and you're stuck with ₦20M of dead inventory.
Packaging that arrives broken
Pumps that don't pump. Caps that don't seal. Labels that peel in transit. Cosmetics packaging is a separate industry from filling, and most founders only learn that after the first container.
No regulatory plan
NAFDAC clearance is not optional. Without ingredient declarations, COAs, and stability data structured the right way, you run into compliance and regulatory issues.
No one on the ground
When samples go wrong, when a deadline slips, when a factory ghosts you, there's no one in China to pick up the phone for you. So nothing moves.

Emerging beauty founders
You have a brand vision and an audience in mind. You need a manufacturing partner who won't embarrass your label, and a roadmap that respects your launch budget.
Established brands looking to scale
You've built the brand and want to move production up a level. Faster lead times, tighter batch consistency, larger runs at better margins, and the capacity to launch new products without scrambling.
Salons, spas & retail chains
You serve clients daily and want to private-label your own line: body washes, hair care, treatments. We help you go from concept to first shelf without the trial and error.
From booking to factory floor in five steps.

The 60-minute call
Live with our China manufacturing team. We walk through formulation, factory options, packaging, costs, regulatory path, and your specific blockers. Recorded and shared with you.
- 04
Written brief delivered
Within 5 business days you receive your manufacturing brief: shortlist with direct contacts, comprehensive plan, packaging plan, NAFDAC roadmap, and a sample-order checklist.
- 05
14-day implementation window
We stay on WhatsApp with you for two weeks while you reach out to factories, request samples, and finalise your launch order. You are never doing this alone.
We don't just advise on cosmetics. We make them.
Naiyuan Mart has been in Guangzhou for nearly 10 years, helping Nigerian brands manufacture their own creams, soaps, serums, and body products, straight from the same factories that supply the big names you already know.
We handle it end-to-end, formulation, sampling and bulk production with GMP-certified factories, we'll also guide you on picking the right bottles, pumps, droppers and boxes, filling, labelling, sealing, plus SONCAP and NAFDAC-ready documentation, and finally shipping, customs clearance and doorstep delivery.
Vetted Factories Only
Every factory on your shortlist is one our team has personally walked, audited, and either uses already or has rejected for cause.
Builders, not consultants
We're not selling you a strategy deck. We have products in production right now, soaps, serums, creams and even supplements. The advice you get on the call is what we implement every week.
Africa-aware
Climate, NAFDAC, freight realities, retail expectations: all built into the plan. Generic China advice doesn't survive Apapa.
We take a small number of these every month.
Each consultation is led personally by our China manufacturing team and includes a custom written brief, so there is a real ceiling on how many we can deliver well. Reserve your slot now and we'll confirm scheduling within one business day.
