Skincare fulfillment protects active formulas, fragile packaging and the trust customers place in a regimen. We manage shelf life, packing and replenishment for brands selling serums, moisturizers, cleansers and treatments.
Shelf life and active ingredients
Skincare shelf life is often shorter and more variable than other beauty categories. Vitamin C serums, retinoids, peptides and preservative-light formulas may carry tighter dating, and some are sensitive to heat and light. That makes expiry control essential.
We record lot and expiration date at receipt and pick first-expired-first-out, with minimum remaining shelf-life rules per channel. Short-dated lots move to a hold location and are reported before they become a write-off. Temperature-sensitive SKUs can be placed in climate-controlled storage where available, and flagged for heat-aware packaging in warm months.
Because each order records the lot shipped, your customer care team can answer questions about a specific batch with confidence, which is especially valuable for products that customers apply to their face every day.
Packing glass, pumps and droppers
Skincare packaging is beautiful and fragile. Glass dropper bottles, airless pumps, heavy jars and tubes with delicate caps each need a different packout.
We test every SKU during onboarding: closures checked, droppers secured, pumps locked where possible, and liquids bagged or sleeved to contain leaks. Glass gets inner cartons, molded inserts or dividers sized to your bottles. Multi-product regimens are packed so heavy jars do not shift against lighter bottles in transit.
The result is an unboxing that reflects the premium positioning of your skincare line, with fewer breakage refunds and fewer reshipments eroding margin. Packaging specifications are recorded per SKU with photos, and damage reports are reviewed regularly so any product that repeatedly arrives damaged gets a revised packout rather than more refunds.
Regimens, subscriptions and replenishment
Skincare customers often buy routines, not single products. We fulfill regimen bundles as kits or virtual bundles, ship subscription replenishment on schedule, and combine subscription shipments with one-time add-ons when your platform sends them together.
Subscription waves are planned against inventory by lot, so recurring customers receive fresh product consistently. For retail, we build cartons to each retailer's case packs and shelf-life requirements, while DTC and subscription orders draw from the same pool. One set of lot records covers every channel your skincare line sells through.
Regimen launches and limited editions can be held until a release date and shipped in controlled waves, and sample-size versions of your hero products can be inserted into qualifying orders to drive discovery of the rest of the routine.
Frequently asked questions
Can you store temperature-sensitive skincare?
Yes. Climate-controlled storage options are available in select markets, and heat-sensitive SKUs can be flagged for heat-aware packaging during warmer months.
How do you prevent serum bottles from breaking?
We use inner cartons, molded inserts or dividers for glass, secure droppers and closures, and bag liquids, with packouts tested on your SKUs before go-live.
Do you fulfill skincare subscriptions?
Yes. We ship subscription replenishment from lot-tracked inventory using FEFO, and can combine recurring shipments with add-on purchases.
