Private label cosmetics are available at different quality levels. Most people associate private label cosmetic products with poor to medium quality.

But that’s not always true!

There are indeed high-end, luxury private label cosmetic companies where you can get pre-formulated cosmetic products of premium quality.

In fact, you can get private label cosmetics that can keep up with the quality level of cosmetic brands like Chanel, Tom Ford, Dior or Lancôme.

So let’s have a closer look at where you find those luxury private label cosmetic manufacturers and what you need to know in order to make an informed decision.

In order to share with you the minimum order quantity (MOQ) for luxury private label cosmetics, we have to break it down into two different types of private label cosmetics (as explained in our blog post about private label cosmetics).

The first one is pre-manufactured cosmetic products. They are on stock and can be labelled with your logo.

The minimum order quantities and customization options are typically very low and the unit price high.

This is not what you should look out for, when searching for luxury private label cosmetics, since the quality of those products isn’t too good.

The second type is what you want when looking for premium quality cosmetic products.

This type of private label cosmetics describes pre-formulated but not pre-manufactured products.

You save time and money for research and development while maintaining a decent degree of customization options (e.g. changing the packaging).

Since they are manufactured just for you, the minimum order quantity is higher. Depending on the product and manufacturer, it usually starts at 1000–3000 units.

Luxury private label cosmetics are predominantly manufactured in Europe.

There are some decent manufacturers all around the world, but most brands vow on Europe when it comes to luxury private label cosmetics.

Which country in Europe you should look for, depends on the product.

While most skin care is manufactured in France, Italy is known for its high-end makeup manufacturers, and Germany manufactures some of the world’s best liners (lip liner, eyeliner etc.).

This process of ordering components from differenct countries and bringing them all togehter can be quite complex.

Luxury private label cosmetics are not just about selling high quality cosmetic products.

There’s more to pay to attention to, when starting a luxury cosmetic brand.

Brand Design is one of these things.

You could even argue, this is more important than the product itself.

The most underrated factor when it comes to luxury private label cosmetics is the brand design.

Since it’s most likely not possible to test your cosmetic products before buying, your audience will judge the value of your products based on what they see. 

A brand design can make or break your private label luxury cosmetics brand. It can look cheap and untrusty, or high-end and trustworthy.

Making the product expensive and giving it a minimalist design is not enough.

It goes way beyond that.

It’s all about this luxurious experience, when visiting your website, buying your products and unboxing them for the first time.

When talking about unboxing your products, let’s have a look at how a luxury cosmetic packaging should look like.

There are basically three layers of packaging.

1. Primary packaging
2. Secondary packaging
3. Shipping Box

First, there is the primary packaging.

It’s the packaging of the actual product (glass jar, lipstick container etc.).

Because customers hold it in their hands every time they use your products, it should feel very high quality.

Then there’s the secondary packaging.

The most common is a small folding box, where your product is inside.

It not only protects the product, it also serves as an extra space for conveying this luxury feeling.

You have way more options to customize this packaging, than the primary packaging (e.g. printing area and number of colours on a glass jar are very limited).

There’s no limitation in the number of colours and much more space for creativity.

If you run an online store to sell your products, you should think about a custom shipping box.

It’s the first (physical) touchpoint with your customers.

Make sure this one is great. First impressions are crucial!

This makes the unboxing experience way more unique and fun for your customers. At the end, they don’t just buy the product, they buy this luxury feeling that comes with your products.
