About Sespia Labs
When an asteroid wiped out the dinosaurs 66 million years ago, the animals that survived were small mammals: hardy, resilient, and adaptable. Where giant, lumbering creatures could no longer survive, those quick and versatile mammals thrived. Sespia, a cat-sized pig-like creature that lived in California, was one of those creatures that flourished.
Sespia Labs helps small beauty brands build strong, nimble companies that stand the test of time.


Sespia was built by accident. Our founder, Alli Reed, was a bored chemist who started formulating her own skincare and ended up launching a small business in 2016 to sell her formulas out of her apartment. That company took off, and as it grew, she grew her manufacturing capacity with it: from lab equipment, to commercial kitchen equipment, until finally she had built out a custom skincare manufacturing facility.
That company that started out of her kitchen in 2016 is now a successful multi-million dollar brand, and one that does absolutely everything in house: from formulation, to manufacturing, to storage, to fulfillment. We’ve had 9 years to perfect every aspect of building skincare operations in-house.
Sespia takes advantage of that equipment, expertise, and hard-won lessons, and offers it to small beauty brands looking for a simpler solution for their operations. What we did for our own brand, we’ll do for yours.
