Compiling a PIF for your cosmetic products can be a daunting process, and we understand the stress it can cause when you first start out on your small cosmetics business journey.

Because of this, we have created a PIF Template.  Compiled as a word document for you to fill in with your product information.  You can save it to your computer and print it out to keep in a file at your premises.

We've included a page for each part of the PIF that you need and prompts and explanations of what is required for each to take the stress out of it for you.

You'll be able to enter your product information easily and quickly, giving you a finished PIF in minutes rather than hours!  Then, next time you've already got a finished copy and just need to edit it for your new product.

More time to spend creating and less time spent on boring admin.  Perfect!

• Template with placeholders and prompts to fill in your own information.  

NB: There is no right or wrong way to compile a PIF, only that it MUST include certain things.  Use this as a template, or as a guide, it is up to you.

Because I get asked a lot - I don't offer a PIF service whereby I write it for you.  This is because I'd have to ask you for so much information, that by the time you send it all to me, you may as well have put it in the Template yourself.  This is why I made this template.  It's easier and more affordable.
