Beauty Products Insurance
Beauty products insurance is designed for businesses that sell, supply, import, distribute or hold stock of cosmetics, skincare, haircare, makeup, fragrance, nail products, salon retail items and personal-care products.
The right cover should reflect whether products are sold in a shop, salon, online store, marketplace, wholesale setting or from treatment premises, and whether the business imports, own-labels or advises customers on product use.
What Can Beauty Products Insurance Cover?
