Inventory Management Built for Cosmetics Manufacturers
Manage complex formulas, track batches from blending to packaging, maintain GMP compliance, and handle hundreds of SKU variants—all in one platform designed for beauty and personal care brands.
Challenges Cosmetics Manufacturers Know Too Well
Managing formulations, production variants, and regulatory compliance with generic tools creates problems that slow growth and increase risk.
Formula Complexity Nightmare
Managing formulations with dozens of ingredients, multiple variants (shades, sizes, scents), and frequent reformulations across spreadsheets leads to costly production errors.
GMP Documentation Gaps
Maintaining compliant batch records, quality documentation, and audit trails manually is time-consuming and creates compliance risk during inspections.
Ingredient Traceability Blind Spots
When an ingredient supplier has a quality issue, tracing which finished products contain that lot takes far too long without proper systems.
SKU Explosion Management
Hundreds of SKUs across colors, sizes, and formulations make inventory management overwhelming. Stock the wrong shade and you have dead inventory.
Retail & E-commerce Channel Chaos
Selling through your website, Amazon, Ulta, and retail partners means inventory updates happen in multiple places—leading to overselling and stockouts.
Shelf Life & Stability Tracking Failures
Without proper expiration and stability tracking, products ship past their prime or ingredients are used beyond their effective date.

See why growing cosmetics companies choose Fiddle for their inventory, production, and compliance needs.
Managing 400+ SKUs across 50 shades used to be a nightmare. Fiddle gave us real visibility into what we have, what is selling, and what we need to make. We cut our dead inventory by 35% in the first year.
When Sephora started asking for our batch documentation and traceability records, we were ready. Fiddle made the retailer qualification process so much smoother—we looked like a much bigger operation than we are.
