Sell cosmetic and beauty products from your own store
Kliv is an AI app builder. Describe your beauty store — shades, batches, expiry dates, bundles, waitlists, reviews, and refills — and it builds it on your own Stripe account.
Just enter your idea into the text box and AI will build it for you
What is Kliv?
Kliv isn’t a generic storefront template — it’s an AI that builds software for you.
You describe the store you need in plain words, and Kliv builds it: the catalog, checkout, data, admin screens, and rules. What you get is a real web app that’s yours. You run payments on your own Stripe account, own the customer records, and can change the app later by asking. It isn’t a template.
On this page, that app is a beauty storefront built around shades, batches, routines, waitlists, and refills. Kliv builds all kinds of web apps; this is one example.
Why small-batch skincare needs more than a cart
Generic cart software often treats a product as a photo, a price, and a quantity. A small beauty line may need more: one balm in eight shades that sell at different rates, jars with batch numbers and twelve-month lives, and a routine set priced as one item while stocked as three.
Kliv builds the store around those facts. Shades are variants with their own counts, batches have dates, the $58 routine set reads stock from its components, and a customer can ask whether a jar is from the new formulation and get an answer from data.
The shelf, by batch and shade
A beauty catalog needs these records to stay honest.
Products and shades
A balm can be one product with Shade 05 as a variant. Each shade has its own stock, photos on real skin, and reorder point.
Batches and expiry
Every unit traces to a batch with poured date, expiry, and formulation notes. The code on the label answers which batch a customer has.
Routines and bundles
The three-step set sells for $58 as one catalog line and draws from cleanser, serum, and cream stock. It stops selling when any component runs out.
The restock waitlist
A sold-out shade can collect names. When the next batch lands, waitlist emails go first to the customers who asked.
Reviews, queued
Reviews can enter a moderation queue. Approve, decline, or reply privately to a difficult review, with the decision logged.
An example: Petra’s Sable & Fen skincare line
Here’s how one beauty brand might use a store built with Kliv. It’s only an example — you would describe your own products, shades, batches, bundles, and subscriptions.
A new batch enters with dates
Batch 41 of rosehip serum enters as 60 units with a poured date and a 12-month life. Labels print with the batch code.
Variant sales show what is really moving
The 30 ml serum outsells the 15 ml two to one. The app shows that per variant instead of averaging both sizes together.
A sold-out item opens a waitlist
When unit 60 sells on Sunday night, the page flips to a waitlist. Forty-one customers join while batch 42 cures.
The next batch launches to the waitlist first
Batch 42 goes live first to the waitlist. Thirty-two of forty-one customers buy in a day before the public restock post goes out.
The bundle follows component stock
The $58 set keeps selling only while cleanser, serum, and cream all have stock. It reads the same counts as the individual jars.
Describe the beauty store you want
Kliv builds from your description, so the more detail you give, the closer the first version. Include shades, batches, prices, bundles, waitlists, tax, reviews, and subscriptions. Here are three examples:
Small-batch skincare store
Variants, batches, waitlists, bundles, and reviews.
“Build an online store for my small-batch skincare brand. Include tinted balm in 8 shades, separate stock and photos per shade, batch and expiry tracking, restock waitlists, moderated reviews, and a $58 routine bundle made from cleanser, serum, and cream.”
Shade-first makeup brand
Shade picker and stock by shade.
“Build a makeup store where every product page leads with a shade picker. Each shade should have its own stock count, skin-tone photos, reorder point, and waitlist when sold out.”
Refill-club apothecary
Sixty-day refill subscriptions and one-time gifts.
“Build a skincare store with a refill subscription every 60 days, one-time purchase options, pause and resume from the customer billing page, and a $72 holiday gift set that stops selling when any component is out of stock.”
The back bar, accounted for
Refills can be subscriptions. Serum can ship every sixty days on a subscription the customer controls. They can pause for a slow month and resume without a support email.
Tax is calculated at checkout. Register the states where the brand owes sales tax, and checkout calculates each order’s share. Reports are shaped for filing. B2B buyers can add a tax ID that appears on invoices.
Analytics can track your real questions. “Shade-finder completed” can be a custom event you define. The dashboard can split revenue by channel so the reel that sells serum becomes visible.
The wider direct-to-consumer craft — positioning, drops, and repeat rate — is covered on the direct-to-consumer page.
Common questions
What exactly is Kliv?
Kliv is an AI that builds custom web apps from a description. For beauty commerce, it builds the storefront, catalog, checkout, admin screens, subscriptions, and rules around your products.
Do I get a real app, or a template?
A real app. It is built around your shades, batches, bundles, waitlists, reviews, taxes, and subscriptions.
Can I change it after it’s built?
Yes. Ask for a new product type, shade picker, bundle rule, subscription cadence, or review workflow, and Kliv updates the app.
Can customers subscribe to refills?
Yes. A product can have a subscription price alongside a one-time price. Customers can pause, resume, or switch shades from their billing page.
What does batch tracking buy me?
The code on a jar resolves to a batch record with poured date, expiry, and formulation version. Support questions and recalls become lookups instead of guesswork.
Do reviews go straight to the page?
Only if you want them to. Reviews can enter a queue you approve or decline, and difficult reviews can get a private reply.
What about sales tax in other states?
Register the jurisdictions where you owe tax. Checkout calculates tax per order and reports are shaped for filing. B2B buyers can add a tax ID to invoices.
Does Kliv take a cut of sales?
No. Payments run on your own Stripe account. Card processing fees are between you and Stripe.
Do customers need Stripe accounts?
No. Customers pay by card. The Stripe account is yours.
Can I sell bundles without overselling stock?
Yes. A bundle can read stock from its component products and stop selling when any required item is unavailable.
Can sold-out shades collect waitlists?
Yes. Each shade can have its own waitlist, and restock emails can go to those customers first.
Can I use my own domain?
Yes. The store can run on your own domain.
Can I move off Kliv later?
Yes. The code syncs to your own Git repository, and your product and customer records are yours.
