About the Merle Norman Cosmetics Franchise

Merle Norman Cosmetics believes that every customer should get personalized, individual care that helps them find their ideal beauty solution. It’s part of the bedrock of our business and guides our development as we work to change the conversation about cosmetics franchise opportunities.

We’ve supported our customers for almost a century with innovative, high-quality skincare and makeup products paired with a commitment to quality and local production.

Our individualized care and customized solution help make us a standout business in an industry that’s often focused on one-size-fits-all customer options. That’s aided our development and given our brand a reputation for customer satisfaction we’re proud to stand behind.

At Merle Norman Cosmetics, we think about cosmetics franchise growth and owner development daily. We’re excited for what’s next, and we’re helping to guide the industry into the future.

Merle Norman Cosmetics has been a key player in the cosmetics industry for almost a century. We’re a leading name when people think about cosmetics franchise opportunities, and we’ve developed an Owner-centered approach designed to give our franchise Owners the tools for growth.

We got our start in the 1920s when Merle Nethercutt Norman established the brand and used her experience in chemistry and medicine to create a new line of cosmetics for customers on the West Coast. The product line was a hit, and before long, Merle Norman Cosmetics was operating nationwide and serving a growing base of loyal customers.

Merle Norman’s entrepreneurial spirit and drive to innovate continue to guide our brand today as we expand into new territories and create new franchise opportunities for Owners in communities coast to coast.
