Beauchêne

Beauchêne is a luxury cosmetics and cyborgization company, with its headquarters and only store located in Freeport. Founded by Marshal Beauchêne, it provides high quality, long lasting products to rich elites, the effects of its cosmetics lasting an outstanding 6 months.

Its product catalog includes:

To promote its business, Beauchêne will often partner with other cosmetic brands during special events and holidays. A brand may start a giveaway contest with one of the prizes being one of Beauchêne’s cosmetics. If one is lucky enough to win in such a promotional event, they can obtain the cosmetic without stepping foot in the official store.

Beauchêne cosmetics are in such high demand that it’s common for scalpers to resell the same product. These are often sold secondhand on online auction sites for at least twice the markup. In addition, these products are often accompanied by suspiciously cheap, fraudulent lookalikes from scammers that quickly lose effect when exposed to water or excessive sunlight.

Beauchêne’s biggest competitor is Glamtec. There are rumors of corporate espionage between the two companies, but nothing has been confirmed.

Production

To ensure the highest quality, Beauchêne cosmetics are developed in autonomous factories orbiting the planet. Regular shipments of these cosmetics are delivered to specialized factories planetside for adjustments and quality control before they’re shipped to Freeport for sale.

Cybernetic parts are manufactured and assembled entirely planetside. All artificial intelligences are developed and trained in-house within Beauchêne’s corporate headquarters.
