Opening order minimums at professional skincare brands

Opening order minimums are one of the first questions at any trade show booth, and one of the hardest to answer from a brand's website. Here is what professional skincare, body care, and waxing brands in our directory publish about the minimum spend to open an account and to reorder.

The short answer

Almost no brands publish a dollar amount

Only a few brands in our directory list a dollar opening order minimum. A handful state they have no minimum, and most ask you to contact them.

Context

Why most brands don't publish a number

Minimums often depend on the account type (a solo esthetician, a spa, or a medical practice), on whether you open with both back-bar and retail products, and on regional distributors. Some brands bundle the opening order with training or marketing support. A single published number would rarely fit every buyer, so most brands quote it during the account conversation.

What to ask before you open an account

  • What is the opening order minimum for my account type, and does it have to include retail products?
  • Is there a reorder minimum, or a minimum yearly spend to keep the account active?
  • Are training, samples, or opening-order discounts included?
  • Can my clients reorder online, and does my business get credit for those sales?
  • Do I order directly from the brand or through a distributor in my area?

Methodology

How we gathered this

Each brand's entry comes from its own published pages: account applications, professional sites, and FAQs. The source is listed on the brand's profile with the date it was last checked. This table updates automatically as profiles are added or rechecked.

Terms change, so confirm minimums with the brand before ordering. Brands can claim their profile to add or correct their terms. Read more about how we research on our About page.
