Poplawska Laboratories —
our research and innovation center

Our Formulas

The Poplawska Group Laboratory is the heart of our research activity. This is where cosmetic raw materials, new formulas and technologies are created, which end up in professional salons and Clarena products. We work in R&D standards, relying on facts, testing and innovation.

Who we are

Poplawska Laboratories is a modern research and development center that has been supporting the beauty industry in Poland and abroad for years. Our foundation is science — we start each project with the analysis of active ingredients and their mechanisms of action.

We create formulas from scratch: from the synthesis of substances, through tests of effectiveness
and safety, right up to implementation into production. Thanks to this, we know not only how to create, but also how to apply and recommend our solutions in practice.

What we do

Laboratorium Poplawska Group operates primarily for the needs of the Clarena brand — it is here that recipes of professional cosmetics, supplements and innovative care formulas are created.
