Beauty, cosmetics & skincare
Beauty retail operations software with shelf-life tracking
Cosmetics and skincare carry batch codes and shelf lives, and beauty retail lives on display standards. OPZAIQ tracks batches and expiry, sets merchandising tasks per store, and measures each site against its daily target.
Shelf life on the shelf, not in a spreadsheet
Skincare and cosmetics age. Testers open, formulas pass their period-after-opening, and stock bought for a season sits into the next one. Because OPZAIQ records each intake as a batch with a date, the ageing stock in a store is a list rather than an intuition.
Batch codes also matter when a supplier issues a recall or a customer queries a specific lot.
Display standards, executed and verified
Beauty retail sells on presentation. Merchandising tasks — gondola resets, tester maintenance, promotional bays — are set per store and completed on the floor, so head office reads completion per site instead of collecting photos.
| What it handles | How it works |
|---|---|
| Batch and shelf life | Batch codes and dates per intake, with a countdown on ageing stock. |
| Tester and display tasks | Merchandising work set per store and ticked off on the floor. |
| Stock counts | On-hand counts with reorder points on fast-moving lines. |
| Supplier invoices | Invoices tracked to-be-paid or paid and reconciled to deliveries. |
| Staff sign-on | PIN sign-on with automatic break deduction and weekly hours. |
| Store targets | Daily takings entered against each store's own target. |
Counter teams and targets
Staff sign on with a PIN, hours total with breaks deducted, and each store enters daily takings against its own target. Owners compare stores on takings, hours, stock risk and merchandising completion together.
Common questions
Can OPZAIQ track period-after-opening on testers?
Testers can be recorded as batches with their own dates, which gives you the same countdown used for sealed stock.
Does it handle appointments or treatments?
No. It covers retail operations — stock, batches, merchandising, staff hours, invoices and takings — not treatment bookings.
Is it suitable for a small chain of beauty stores?
Yes. It was built for small multi-site groups, with per-store access and a group view for owners.
