Cosmetics and personal care wholesalers and distributors in Europe

Cosmetics wholesalers and distributors list skincare, makeup and haircare lines for retailers across Europe.

Skincare, makeup, haircare, nail care and bath-and-body items are the mix of goods 26 cosmetics wholesalers bring together here, registered across 25 European countries. Exactly which of these a company carries, and where that assortment comes from, is stated on its own listing; once that company has an EU VAT ID on file, the date of its last VIES check appears there too. Pricing and order quantities are settled directly between retailer and supplier, never through WholesaleX.

Slovenia is an EU member state and currently lists 1 supplier here; VAT IDs are checked via VIES.

Other categories

What this category covers

Skincare (creams, serums, cleansers), makeup, haircare, nail care and bath-and-body products for retail resale are the physical goods this category is limited to.

Perfume and fragrance belong to their own category (see Arabic perfume wholesalers), and professional salon equipment, furniture or tools are not what this category lists — a supplier's own product page always has the exact range.

Questions about cosmetics

What cosmetics does this category actually list?

Each supplier decides for itself which of skincare, makeup, haircare, nail polish or bath-and-body products it lists, and names that mix directly on its own entry — nothing here is assumed to apply company to company.

Do cosmetics wholesalers also sell perfume?

Fragrance has its own category here (Arabic perfume wholesalers) and sits apart from this one. Skincare, makeup and haircare are what gets listed under cosmetics; a company's own website is where to check if it deals in fragrance as well.

How many countries are cosmetics wholesalers registered in today?

26 cosmetics wholesalers make up today's directory, spread across 25 countries (Spain, Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Czechia, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Sweden) — a number that shifts as companies join or leave, never a fixed count.

Does WholesaleX test cosmetic product safety or ingredients?

Formulation, ingredient safety and product testing stay entirely with the supplier — WholesaleX carries out none of that itself. The one thing WholesaleX does check, once a company files an EU VAT ID, is whether the European Commission's VIES system still lists that number as valid, with the check's date shown on the listing.

Is browsing the cosmetics listings free for a retailer?

There is no fee for a retailer to open, compare or browse any listing in this category. The single exception to the plain alphabetical order by company name is a paid placement, always marked “Ad”.

Can a retailer order skincare or makeup directly through WholesaleX?

A listing here is a signpost, nothing more — WholesaleX takes no order, no payment and stores no cart. Skincare or makeup gets bought by following that signpost to the supplier's own site and agreeing pack size, quantity and price there.
