Fulfillment for cosmetics and skincare brands

Beauty products are small, valuable, often glass, and dated. That combination punishes sloppy warehouses. We receive your skincare and cosmetics with lot and expiry captured, pick first-expiry-first-out, wrap glass for the trip, and ship the branded unboxing you designed, from Miami, the same business day.

What beauty brands need

The five things we do differently for cosmetics

A serum with a lot number is not the same SKU as the serum from the previous batch when a retailer or a customer asks a question. A jar in glass does not survive the same mailer a T-shirt does. And a product that sells on Shopify, Amazon and TikTok Shop at once needs one count, not three. Those realities shape how we handle beauty inventory.

  • Lot and expiry at receiving: every carton logged with batch and date, visible per SKU in your dashboard.
  • First-expiry-first-out picking so older stock leaves first and nothing is discovered expired on the shelf.
  • Fragile prep for glass: bubble wrap, cushioned mailers or boxes, and carton building that keeps jars upright. $1.75 per unit under 500 units a month, down to $1.20.
  • Branded unboxing: your tissue, cards, samples and boxes received as inbound and used by rule. Inserts at $0.15 per order.
  • Marketplace prep: FNSKU and expiry labeling for FBA, UPC and shelf-life checks for Walmart WFS, from the same inventory.
  • Sets and gifting: kits built in advance at $0.50 to $1 per unit for launches, holidays and influencer boxes.

How it works

From your lab or supplier to the customer's door

01

Onboard the catalog

We load SKUs, mark which need lot and expiry control, define fragile handling and set the unboxing rules.

02

Receive with dates

Cartons are counted, photographed and logged with lot and expiry the same business day.

03

Sell on every channel

Shopify, Amazon FBM, TikTok Shop and Walmart draw from one count. FBA and WFS inbounds are prepped from the same stock.

04

Pick FEFO, pack for glass

Orders before 2:00 PM Eastern ship the same day, oldest lot first, glass cushioned, inserts placed.

05

Returns graded

Returned units are inspected for seal and expiry and only restocked when they meet your rule.

Why Miami

Where beauty brands from the Americas enter the US

Latin American brands

Colombian, Mexican and Brazilian cosmetics land in Miami. We receive your cleared cargo and start selling without a domestic leg.

Two-day reach to the Southeast

Ground service from Miami covers Florida the next day and most of the Southeast in two, before you pay for air.

Bilingual support

Your team in Bogotá or Mexico City talks to our team in Spanish. Your customers in Texas get English.

Saul Ortiz, founder
Cosmetics are where lot tracking stops being a feature and becomes the job. If a customer asks which batch they received, we can answer from the pick record, and that is the whole point of scanning at receiving instead of at the end of the month.
