Faire Fee Context for Skincare Products

Natural skincare brands often have higher COGS due to quality ingredients. With Faire's 15% commission, a $20 wholesale serum nets $17 before processing — then subtract your $9 ingredient and packaging cost for $8 gross profit.

Pricing Tip for Skincare Products

Don't forget to include your R&D and compliance costs (safety testing, labeling requirements) in your effective COGS — these are real costs that often get missed in wholesale pricing.

How do I price skincare products for Faire wholesale?
