Your cosmetics logistics, managed with the precision your products demand
Batch traceability, expiry-date management, storage in optimal conditions, multi-channel restocking… YouStock takes charge of your entire cosmetics logistics operation.
In cosmetics, approximate logistics is unforgiving
Products sensitive to temperature, humidity and light. Expiry dates to monitor. Batches to trace. Restocking to coordinate across your shops, your e-commerce site and your resellers. Launches to manage to tight deadlines, without stockouts or overstocking.
Most cosmetics brands juggle several logistics providers, warehouses unsuited to sensitive products and teams tied up with tasks that have nothing to do with their core business.
YouStock centralises all your cosmetics logistics flows, guaranteeing you storage conditions that meet industry standards and complete traceability.

From supplier receiving to in-store or e-commerce delivery, YouStock handles every step with the rigour your sector demands.

Cataloguing & batch traceability
Every product digitised with its batch number, expiry date and storage conditions. Complete real-time traceability from your online platform.
Storage in cosmetics-grade conditions
Controlled temperature, managed humidity, UV protection. A world away from the generic warehouses unsuited to sensitive products.

In-store restocking, e-commerce orders, promotional kits, gift sets: prepared and packed to your exact specifications.
Multi-channel dispatch within 48h
Your products dispatched to your shops, resellers, e-commerce platforms or directly to your end customers within guaranteed lead times.
Returns & end-of-batch management

Our experts assess your constraints — expiry dates, storage conditions, volumes, distribution channels — to put a bespoke proposal to you.
Three situations where YouStock can make the difference for your brand
1. Coordinate your product launches without the logistics hiccups
A cosmetics launch means weeks of preparation for a few days of execution. Coordinating supplier deliveries, preparing press kits, stocking shops and e-commerce platforms simultaneously — the smallest spanner in the works can undermine the impact of your launch.
Pre-launch receiving & storage
Your products received, checked and stored well ahead of the big day. Everything is ready on launch day, with no last-minute rush.
Press kit & sample preparation
Our teams assemble your press kits, discovery sets and gift allocations to your exact specifications, within controlled deadlines.
Coordinated multi-channel distribution
On the day, your products dispatched simultaneously to your shops, resellers and e-commerce site. Zero lag, zero stockouts.
2. Keep control of your stock across every channel, whatever the season
Own-brand shops, multi-brand concessions, resellers, e-commerce, marketplaces… Managing restocking across all your channels is complex enough on its own. Add the seasonal peaks (Christmas, Valentine’s Day, Mother’s Day…) and, without centralised logistics, stockouts and overstocking are inevitable.
Centralised & seasonal management
A central stock in our warehouses, replenished by your suppliers and redistributed across all your channels according to your priorities. Our capacity adapts to your seasonal volumes with no additional commitment.
Flexible on-demand deliveries
An urgent reseller order, a weekly shop restock, a daily e-commerce dispatch, a pre-Christmas order surge: our teams adapt to your rhythms, summer and winter alike.
Anticipating stockouts
Your dashboard gives you complete visibility of your stock levels by reference, by batch and by channel. Set your alert thresholds and stay ahead of stockouts before they happen.
3. Open your pop-ups and shops without giving logistics a second thought
Opening a pop-up or a shop is a high-potential commercial opportunity, but also an intense logistics operation on a very tight timeline. Opening stock, furniture, merchandising, restocking once you’re trading… Every detail counts if you’re to be ready on the day.
Opening stock ready on the day
Furniture & merchandising logistics
Display units, shop fittings, decorative elements, signage: our teams handle the delivery and installation of all the non-product elements of your point of sale.
Continuous restocking while you trade
Once the shop is open, YouStock keeps your references topped up from your central stock, in a few clicks from your dashboard, without tying up your field teams.

FAQ — Logistics for cosmetics brands
Absolutely. Unlike generic logistics warehouses, our storage spaces are perfectly suited to cosmetic products: controlled temperature, managed humidity and protection from UV light. Your formulations, active ingredients and packaging are kept in conditions that meet your sector’s requirements and your suppliers’ recommendations. Each product is stored according to its own specifications, catalogued with its batch number and expiry date for complete traceability.
Traceability sits at the heart of our process for cosmetics brands. At receiving, each product is digitised with its batch number, manufacturing date and expiry date. From your dashboard, you can see the status of your stock by reference and by batch in real time. Our teams apply the FEFO principle (First Expired, First Out): the products with the nearest expiry date are dispatched first, which minimises waste and the risk of selling products close to their use-by date.
Yes — it’s one of the services cosmetics brands request most. Our teams assemble your press kits, discovery sets, limited-edition sets and gift allocations to your precise instructions: choice of references, quantities, packaging, personalisation. For seasonal operations (the festive season, Valentine’s Day, Mother’s Day…), we recommend planning the preparation at least 4 to 6 weeks before the distribution date.
Yes. From a centralised stock in our warehouses, we manage dispatch to your own-brand shops, multi-brand concessions, independent resellers, e-commerce platforms and marketplaces, simultaneously and according to your priority rules. Each channel has its own delivery settings in your online dashboard.
A successful launch rests on logistics that are perfectly orchestrated upstream. We step in from the moment the first stock arrives: quality control, secure storage, preparation of press kits and allocations, stocking of shops and e-commerce platforms on the day. Our teams work in close coordination with your marketing and sales teams to keep to your launch calendar, including for operations spanning several markets or several channels at once.
