A Quest for Quality
Once the most desirable form of a product is created and tested, the formula is produced on a large scale and packaged for shipment. Mary Kay Inc. relies on a team of highly trained scientists, chemists, technicians, quality engineers and inspectors to ensure that quality and safety standards are met or exceeded to ensure consumer satisfaction. Incoming packaging components are inspected before use, product samples are continually checked for microbiological purity, and staff and computerized systems continuously monitor production lines at the manufacturing plants.

To give you an example of the Mary Kay superior standards of quality, the quality assurance team performs on average each year:

•	More than 1,000 stability studies on products.
•	More than 100,000 analytical measurements of products and 250,000 measurements of packaging components.
•	More than 300,000 tests on ingredients and finished goods.
