Developing next-generation skincare concepts for modern consumers.
IQ Labs LLC is a skincare innovation studio focused on developing science-driven treatment concepts for our in-house brand, DermisIQ. Current flagship development includes NanoMud™ Treatment Cream — a modern texture direction built around nano-liposomal niacinamide, a peptide–ceramide barrier system, multi-weight hydration, and clarity mineral support, designed for natural, soft-diffused daily wear and seamless manufacturer alignment.
Modern Treatment Systems
We explore emerging cosmetic technologies, evaluate ingredient systems, and shape clear treatment architectures — including NanoMud™ for DermisIQ — engineered for stability, predictable processing, and compatibility with U.S. manufacturing partners.
Supporting the next generation of skincare brands.
Our approach is science-forward and manufacturer-aligned, defining clear product directions, ingredient strategies, and formulation logic that translate cleanly into contract manufacturing. Recent work includes nano-enhanced treatment concepts such as NanoMud™ for DermisIQ.
Ingredient Research & Evaluation
We assess modern actives and delivery approaches — including nano-liposomal niacinamide, peptide–ceramide barrier systems, and clarity mineral technologies — to build differentiated, brand-ready treatment narratives.
