One of the worst business experiences…
One of the worst business experiences we’ve ever had.
We partnered with Cosmetics Lab for a product development project, and it ended up costing us our entire startup. What was supposed to be a 12-week project dragged on for over 40 weeks with no resolution. Delays, complete lack of communication, poor leadership, and repeated failure to follow basic instructions led to zero deliverables despite full payment.
Even after multiple team changes and a merger on their side, we received products that were completely off-brief. Their mismanagement and negligence not only burned our budget and timeline but also cost us an investor and ultimately killed our startup before we could launch.
Following the merger, Peter Shippen took over as director. We reached out multiple times under his leadership, hoping for accountability or at least a conversation. Instead, our emails were ignored, and no efforts were made to resolve the damage or acknowledge the harm done. His silence spoke volumes about the company’s values and how they treat clients once things go wrong.
We have spent over a year trying to get a refund or resolution, with no success. It has been emotionally and financially devastating.
Startups, small brands, anyone hoping to build something with care: Avoid this company!!!
