The County Court at Truro issued a winding-up order against Be Younger Cosmetics Ltd on 20 May 2026, nearly three months after a petition was filed on 26 February 2026. The case was recorded as No 8 of 2026.
A winding-up order places a company into compulsory liquidation, meaning liquidation imposed by a court rather than resolved voluntarily by the company's members. From the date of the order, the company's assets vest in the liquidator for realisation and distribution to creditors.

On a winding-up order, employees are usually dismissed immediately. Wages owed up to a statutory cap, holiday pay, notice pay and redundancy may be claimable from the Redundancy Payments Service. The Official Receiver will provide RP1 case-reference numbers and the date of insolvency you need to start the claim. See gov.uk: your rights if your employer is insolvent.
Do you hold a deposit, gift card or undelivered order from Be Younger Cosmetics Limited?
Customers rank as unsecured creditors in the liquidation. Where you paid by credit card and the amount was over £100, Section 75 of the Consumer Credit Act 1974 may let you claim from the card issuer for breach of contract or misrepresentation by the supplier; the rules apply per item, not per transaction, and the card must be a regulated credit card. Debit-card payments may be recoverable via chargeback.
Are you a director of a company connected to Be Younger Cosmetics Limited?
Section 216 of the Insolvency Act 1986 applies the moment the winding-up order is made. If you intend to be involved in another company using the same or a similar name within five years, you must rely on one of the three statutory exceptions. The Official Receiver also has a statutory duty to investigate director conduct and report under the Company Directors Disqualification Act 1986.
