A beauty partner, easy to deal with.
We set out to be the kind of partner we’d want to work with: clear on price, honest about timing, and genuinely useful when something needs sorting.
Riviera Essentials is a beauty distributor based in the Netherlands. We source and supply across the beauty industry, working with pharmacies, salons, retailers and online stores in hair care, cosmetics, skincare and fragrance.
We represent four professional hair-care brands directly: Colour Bomb, Kareol, Sumaq and Fatboy. Working with brands this closely is the part of the business we care most about, and it’s where we can be most useful to a buyer who wants more than a line on a price list.
We buy as well as sell, so we can help in either direction. If you’re looking to source brands or stock, we’ll supply you. And if you’re a brand or supplier with something we should see, we’re glad to hear from you.
We keep our range focused rather than trying to stock everything. That way we actually know the products, we’re selective about the suppliers we work with, and we can give you a straight answer when you ask. The name is deliberate: the Riviera is sun-drenched, glamorous and effortlessly luxurious, and that’s the spirit we bring to the brands we represent and the partners we work with.
We work with pharmacies, salon groups, retail chains, perfumeries, online stores and wholesale businesses. If that’s you, we’d be glad to hear from you.
