8 Beauty Brands That Offer Volume Incentives

Auto Replenishment

If you’ve checked out my beauty deal checklist then you know that one of the ways to save on your beauty purchases is to look for auto-replenishment discounts. Many beauty brands are starting to offer these programs where a consumer can sign up to have an item auto-delivered to their home based on when they run out of the product. These programs are a major win for a company as it guarantees a future sale and consumer loyalty. In return, these plans typically come with perks to incentivize consumers to sign up such as a discount and/or free shipping. There are only a select number products (i.e. hand cream or face cleanser) that I would consider an auto replenishment plan for but it is certainly worth it for your holy grail products that you can’t live without.

Another incentive to look for is a bundling or a “buy more and save” discount. This is where you get a deal based on buying a certain amount of product. This is different than buying a premade bundle as it allows you to pick the items you actually use or want to try. Here is a list of 8 beauty brands that offer volume incentives such as auto-replenishment and bundling programs so that you never stop saving!

1) L’Occitane En Provence

L’Occitane is a beauty company that originated in Provence, France in 1976 and have become world-renowned for their skincare, fragrances and home products. It was founded by French entrepreneur, Olivier Baussan, who wanted to create skincare products and authentic natural fragrances which are as effective as they are luxurious. Today the brand can be found globally and according to their website, their best-selling Shea Butter Hand Cream is sold once every three seconds around the world. Thankfully, they offer an generous auto-replenishment program so loyal consumers will never run out of their L’Occitane Hand Cream and other favourites. If you sign up for this program you will get 10% off, free shipping, and samples with every order.

2) Aveda

Aveda Corporation is an American cosmetics company that manufactures skincare, cosmetics, and haircare products using natural and plant-based ingredients. The brand is based on Ayurvedic medicineβ€”an alternative medicine practice with a long history in India. Aveda products include the essential oils of flowers and plants gathered from around the world. The brand has gained notoriety for their plant-based shampoos which are used by thousands of salons around the world. Fortunately, they sell their shampoos directly to the public and have created an auto-replenishment program with free shipping and a 10% discount.

3) Korres

Κorres is a Greek skincare company born out of a homeopathic pharmacy in Athens over 20 years ago. Their products are based on natural ingredients and many of them include medicinal herbs, Greek flora, and natural actives. Korres has grown tremendously over the years and now offers a large selection of skin and body care to suit all different skin types and concerns. One of their most popular products is their Wild Rose Sleeping Facial which is an overnight facial in a jar that is said to address uneven skin tone for a brighter complexion in as little as one night.  There isn’t a lot of detail around their auto-replenishment program on their website but when you put an item in your cart you are given the option to subscribe and save 10% on future deliveries.

4) PHYTO Paris

PHYTO Paris was conceived by French celebrity hairdresser, Patrick AlΓ¨s, in 1969 after noticing that chemical-based hair products were taking a serious toll on the hands of hairdressers and the hair of their clients. He decided to study the power of plants and the role they might play in restoring hair’s natural beauty. This lead to his very own botanical hair care brand, PHYTO, produced from plant extracts and resulting in products that are 95-100% natural overall. For example, PHYTO replaces synthetic alcohol in all its hairsprays with beetroot alcohol which is less drying for hair. PHYTO has become a success worldwide and the brand offers a great bundling program to its consumers where you can save 20% off three products in your haircare routine.

5) LIERAC Paris

LIERAC Paris is a French cosmetics company founded in 1975 by a cosmetic physician who specialized in aesthetic medicine. It is a sister company of PHYTO Paris and combines science and nature to correct skin concerns using innovative plant-based products. One of their first and most iconic products is their Phytolastil Stretch Mark Correction Serum which strengthens the skin’s connective tissues and helps reduce the appearance of existing stretch marks. Just like PHYTO, LIERAC has a bundling program where you can also save 20% off three products in your skincare routine.

6) LaVigne Natural Skincare

LaVigne Natural Skincare is a Canadian skincare company dedicated to making natural products that both heal damaged skin and protect against the effects of day-to-day stresses from our environment. The product line is based on the Mayan key healing ingredient, Tepezcohuite, which is derived from the bark of Mexico’s “skin tree” and has been used by the Mayans for more than ten centuries to nourish skin. All of LaVigne’s products come with a 100% satisfaction guarantee. Luckily the brand offers a great bundling program where you can build your own facial kit and get a 15% off discount.

6) Tria Beauty

Tria Beauty was formed in the U.S. in 2003 by the inventors of the LightSheerβ„’, the gold standard for in-clinic laser hair removal provided by physicians. The goal was to transform a professional laser into a hand-held hair removal laser that delivered permanent results. This handheld first launched in Japan in 2005 and was later introduced in the US in 2008 after receiving FDA clearance. The brand has since expanded its product offering to include lasers and also topical skincare products for every skin concern from permanent hair reduction to acne and skin rejuvenation. Tria Beauty offers a generous auto-replenishment program called Replenish Me where consumers can save 20% on future deliveries.

8) Amazon

Amazon may not be a beauty brand but they are certainly worth mentioning as their beauty category has over 50,000 items of which over 2000 items are part of their “Subscribe & Save” Program. The premise of the program is straight forward; you get a 5% discount when you subscribe to any product for any frequency (i.e. 2 weeks or 6 months). If you subscribe to five or more products from any category in one auto-delivery then the discount jumps to 15% off. Beauty brands included in this auto-replenishment program include L’OrΓ©al, Cetaphil, Garnier, and more. The perk of this program is that you can use it for toilet paper to diapers to mascara to eye cream which makes qualifying for the 15% off discount easy given the diverse products involved.

    I love auto-renewal and shipping mainly on the products that we love and use. I have for years been receiving my favorite skincare and love the fact that I do not have to think about it.
    Other items that I found extremely wonderful to sign up for bulk/auto-shipping are dog food and wine. Yes, wine. The surprise bottles is like your birthday every month :).
    Great post.

  • Julianne

    Wow, I have never heard of some of these brands! My favourite foundation comes from a brand called Yensa and I noticed they have a subscription option but I’ve never pulled the plug on it! You’ve convinced me to look into it next time I run out. Thanks for sharing πŸ€—

  • Mariel

    Woow! I never knew about this auto replenishment program. This article is so great! The next time I will purchase a beauty product will look into one of these brands and try this program. Thanks for sharing 😊

  • Leslie Senevey/distractedbyprettythings

    Super informative post – several brands mentioned that I’m not familiar with but now will need to check out. And I do auto refill/subscription with printer ink and Quip toothbrush, so why not skincare?

  • Wendie Rodgers

    I have definitely taken advantage of the Amazon Subscribe and Save! Totally worth it!
    I need to check out some of these brands – l’occitane is the only one that I am familiar with.

    • Kimberlie

      I had no idea Aveda had a replenishment program and have been using their products for several years. Thank you for sharing.

  • Headphonesthoughts

    I haven’t personally tried auto pay and buying but I would love to try it out as the discount benefits from like Amazon are really great. I had not heard of the other beauty brands and would love to check them out.

  • Irene

    Auto-renew is a good option if you always buy the same product. In my case, I prefer to try different products every time.

    • Margin Of Beauty

      I completely agree. I have some skincare products that I am absolutely loyal to as they have made a significant difference for me. I think these programs are great for those holy grail products that you can’t live without.

  • Emmeline

    Do you ever worry about not finishing a product before it gets replenished? That’s always my biggest fear lol. These programs look so good though!

    • Margin Of Beauty

      A lot of these programs are now flexible in choosing 30, 60, 90 days or even the number of weeks you prefer before receiving your next shipment. I would only use them for products like shampoo, hand cream, and face cream that I use regularly. Those are easier to consume and predict when you will be finished.

  • Kari

    I love Aveda’s auto replenishment service! I never run out of my favorite shampoo & conditioner! It’s so easy, and one less thing I have to worry about going out and buying! And as a busy mom, that’s something that I can totally get behind!

    • Margin Of Beauty

      That’s great to hear! These programs are optimal for busy moms and the bonus discount that you are getting is a nice little perk! πŸ™‚

    • Erica @ The HealthyGirlHustle

      I love learning about new brands! I actually haven’t heard of many of these. Thanks for covering them. I am actually intrigued by some of these more natural companies!

  • A Capone Connection

    I’ve never used auto replenish because I was always worried that it would give me less control over my purchases. I use Juice Beauty products and they offer it as well. I will look into this more and truly consider the option to auto replenish. Thank you so much for sharing!

      I felt the same at first but now really enjoy the auto replenishment feature for the items that I know I use consistently and will always use. Also, a lot of these programs allow you to pause or push out future orders which is great!

  • Elaine

    Thanks for all these great product lists. I am often hesitant about auto shop cause I feel as if they are hard to cancel but I am going to check some of these out.

    • Margin Of Beauty

      I have tried a few of these and they have been fairly straight forward to cancel. That was also a fear of mine in the beginning. πŸ™‚

  • Marie

    I have never heard of these brands so thanks for sharing. I will definitely look into LaVigne Natural Skincare as its Canadian and I am Canadian.

    I love supporting our own!

    Thanks again.

  • Lucia De Rosa
