The Top 10 Skincare Vendors For Your Brand

Are you feeling overwhelmed by the number of skincare vendors on the market? 

Struggling to identify the best manufacturer for your specific skincare brand?

Choosing a supplier all on your own is time-consuming and risky, so why not look for guidance from the other side of the coin?

As a beauty manufacturer, Genie Supply lives and breathes the skincare industry, and we put our specialist knowledge to work in our top 10 skincare vendors list below!

If you want some professional insight on the key pros and cons of some of the most impressive skincare labs on the market (in no particular order), just keep reading. 



10. InSpec Solutions

Headquartered in New York, InSpec is a large skincare vendor that offers over 1,000 products on a private label basis.

Pros: 

This skincare lab formulates unique private label skincare products. Standouts include the tattoo aftercare and tattoo butter. 

Cons: 

InSpec understands the importance of offering consumer choice, but there are potential red flags about quantity vs. quality here. For example, there’s not much information about each product. There is no full ingredients list on the product pages and you must also request a quote for each listing.



9. Cosmewax

Cosmewax is a giant worldwide skincare and hair removal manufacturer based in Spain that exports to over 50 countries. 

Pros:

If you are interested in hair removal private label products - this is a great potential manufacturer for you! They offer a range of hair removal creams, hot wax, hair removal strips, and soothing aftercare.

Cosmewax’s skincare offerings are also quite impressive, with a specific private label range designed for mothers.

Cons:

While this company works with international clients, distance could be an issue.

If you are a small US-based entrepreneur hoping to find suitable skincare vendors, we recommend looking at small-to-medium size beauty labs closer to home that cater to your specific needs. 

8. GAR Laboratories 

GAR Laboratories is a haircare and skincare manufacturer based in California. This vendor specializes in high-volume (5,000+) custom manufacturing for mid-size brands and also offers filling and packaging services. 

Pros: 

This lab is truly interested in helping their customers and it shows! They provide an extensive list of packaging suppliers, shipping businesses, and warehousing companies to make your journey easier. 

Cons:

Their website layout is outdated and difficult to navigate. There’s little information about the custom manufacturing process and it's hard to find a single image of one of their products on the website. 




7. Health and Natural Beauty

Health and Natural Beauty is a personal care manufacturer based in New Jersey that offers oral care, skincare, and haircare products on both a private label and custom manufacturing basis.

Pros: 

This vendor prides itself on its collaborative efforts to brainstorm and create innovative beauty products with synergy between its technology, development, and marketing departments. 

Cons: 

It’s difficult to find examples of their private label product offerings on the website.

6. BeBeauty 

BeBeauty is a family-run beauty manufacturer based in California with over 20 years of experience. 

Pros: 

This could be a great option if you are looking for spa private label products. This provider sells a range of mineral spa salts, massage creams, and body masks to choose from on a bulk basis.  

Cons: 

While BeBeauty offers contract manufacturing in addition to its private label line, there’s limited information about this service on its website. Additionally, there’s scarce detail about the private label range beyond a picture of each skincare product. 





5. Vitelle Labs 

Vitelle Labs is a Canadian manufacturer specializing in private label and contract manufacturing for skin and bodycare products.

Pros: 

This lab is a good option for cosmetic surgeons and dermatologists due to its ‘Cosmeceutical’ range of private label products designed for professionals. 

Cons:

All of the manufacturer’s private label lines are designed for spas and professional clinical practices. It’s probably not the best option if you are a small brand aiming to target the mass market. 





4. Wholesale Natural Bodycare

Wholesale Natural Bodycare is a private label skincare, haircare, and bodycare manufacturer based in Alabama.

Pros: 

Unlike most of the skincare vendors on this list, Wholesale Natural Bodycare provides detailed information about its private label products. Sizes are available on the product pages and the lab provides information about the skincare benefits and ingredients in each product. 

Cons:

The website is difficult to navigate.

3. Pravada

Pravada is a beauty lab based in Florida specializing in private label skincare, bath and body, and haircare. This supplier also offers a skincare line specially designed for men. 

Pros:

The website is easy to navigate and samples are easy to order. You can fill out a short questionnaire for a more accurate pricing estimate. 


Cons:

Pravada only offers skincare on a private label basis, with some limited custom product creation options beyond that. If you want to go down the custom formulating route, this is not the skincare vendor for you. 






2. Evora / Onoxa

Evora provides custom skincare, bath and baby products, and foot care to a worldwide audience. Its sister company, Onoxa, offers a range of skincare products on a private label basis. 

Pros: 

The private label line includes an impressive level of detail about each product on offer, including non-business customer reviews.

Cons:

Consumers and businesses alike use the same Oxoxa website which is somewhat confusing. The Evora website currently has some broken link issues and contains a page listing private label products which adds to the confusion between the two sister sites. 





1. Genie Supply

We’re a tad biased, but our high-quality skincare, easy-to-use website, and emphasis on customer satisfaction deserve a solid spot on this top 10 skincare vendors list. Our women-owned beauty lab is based in Indiana and we conduct all of our R&D and manufacturing in-house. 

Pros: 

Our focus on clean and cruelty-free skincare sets us apart from many of the rest on the market. With over 60 clean private label skincare products to choose from, we’ve got all bases covered! Plus, we even go beyond just skincare and offer haircare and color cosmetics, too. 

We recognize that clean skincare brands hope to build credibility with potential customers by earning a seal of approval from a clean accrediting agency or retailer. As such, we’ve formulated our skincare to match various clean standards.

Simply look for the WholeFoods, Sephora, Credo, or Ulta logos on our private label product pages to check if our formula matches the requirements for clean approval. 

In addition to private label, custom formulating, and contract manufacturing, we offer an additional semi-customization method. Custom product creation is a more budget-friendly way to set your formula apart from your skincare competitors.  

Our website is easy to navigate, and we provide in-depth details about all of our manufacturing processes, including full transparency about the estimated timelines and costs involved.

We noticed few other skincare vendors provide clear guidance on which manufacturing process will work best for each of their clients. It’s not always easy to identify the best path when you’re just getting started, but our easy and quick quiz aims to provide that clarity. 

Our updated product catalog gives a full overview of our private label and bulk product offerings, and it’s really easy to order a sample on our website compared to other skincare vendors. 

  • Read about each product’s ingredients, skincare benefits, and clean credentials on each product page 

  • Identify the product you want

  • Choose your desired quantity

  • Click ‘Add To Cart’

  • Select the cart button in the top right-hand corner and checkout as normal. 

Plus, our packaging catalog illustrates all of our branded customization possibilities, including screenprinting, custom coloring, and custom box design. 

Compared to many other skincare vendors on the market, we pride ourselves on the level of assistance we provide for home-to-lab businesses and total newbies who aren’t quite sure where their journey should start.

If you’re brand new to the skincare game and are feeling stuck, check out our ‘Need To Know Info’ page. 

Our blog is always up to date with new information and our website offers guidance beyond just the manufacturing processes. Learn about the testing and packaging processes from start to finish, including how to comply with FDA packaging regulations.

If you have any questions about our capabilities, don’t hesitate to contact our friendly customer service team! 

Cons:

No skincare lab is 100% perfect and we’re always looking for ways we could improve. We recognize that currently, our hair product private label line is limited. We’re excited to expand that section of our website in the not-so-distant future. Stay tuned for updates!
