Hurry to grab yours at Ulta before the iconic product is back in the vault.

Re: BEAUTY NEWS 2.0

Oh, interesting! Thank you for the tag @danielledanielle!

 

I don't know the specific details about their deal, but this does sound like a good outcome (or as having a high potential for a good outcome, in the immediate and foreseeable future) for Cashmere Nicole, the brand, and the private equity firm. I also *think* this means I can stop hoarding some of my Beauty Bakerie items, or at the very least, until I can pick up the products that are manufactured and released post-acquisition to see how it compares to the formula before the sale. I wonder if there will be any changes to the formulation. 🤔 @makeitup305

@CorgiMommy, I also read an article that Space NK opened an additional location in the UK. Wondering if this sale of the US division and the recent addition of another location means it will be focusing its business solely in the UK.  

Re: BEAUTY NEWS 2.0

@itsfi I read that too.  Looks like that to me.  Just online and stores in the UK.

Beauty related-ish. Forgive if posted earlier. I did not know it was official, interesting. @itsfi do you know any details on this maybe or anyone else?

Re: BEAUTY NEWS 2.0

I first learned of Makeup by Mario positioning itself for a potential sale from YouTuber Jen Luv and did a little digging. 

 

From Cosmetics Business

Makeup by Mario potential sale.png

Makeup by Mario is reportedly exploring a potential sale of the business.

 

The US make-up brand has brought on investment bank J.P. Morgan to look into its options.

“Over the several years since our launch we have experienced significant growth for Makeup by Mario,” founder and CEO Mario Dedivanovic told WWD.

 

“We will continue to drive Makeup by Mario forward both in terms of growth and innovation, and as we do so, we intend to evaluate incoming inquiries alongside our longtime advisers at J.P. Morgan.”

 

It follows Makeup by Mario receiving a US$40m minority investment in 2023 to boost the company’s global expansion plans.

 

This came from private equity firms Provenance and Silas Capital, with the deal valuing the business at more than $200m.

 

The investment was used to address inventory challenges and expand the brand’s team.

 

Makeup by Mario joins a growing roster of brands which have been exploring potential sales in 2024.

 

Selena Gomez hired advisors in March to assess offers for her cosmetics brand Rare Beauty.

Rare Beauty reportedly onboarded bankers to field interest from companies looking to invest in or acquire the company.

 

Kosas Cosmetics was also rumoured to be exploring a potential sale of the brand in January.

The Los Angeles-based skin care and make-up hybrid is said to have hired investment bank North Point to explore its options.

 

Makeup by Mario was founded by Dedivanovic in 2020; he began his career as a retail assistant at beauty retailer Sephora.

 

It launched exclusively with Sephora in North America, expanded globally with the company and then launched its own D2C website.

 

Dedivanovic has over 20 years of experience in the beauty industry, having been a stylist for A-listers including singer Ariana Grande and the Kardashian-Jenner clan.

Re: BEAUTY NEWS 2.0

From Apartment Therapy: Trader Joe’s just issued a recall on the [Mango Tangerine] candle on June 27 due to an “unexpected burn pattern” that’s causing a safety risk...the candle flame can spread from the wick to the wax, producing a larger than expected flame. The company urges you not to burn the candle and either dispose of it or return it to the store for a full refund.

 

greeneyedgirl107_0-1719963350140.png

 

 

From the company:

 

Trader Joe’s Mango Tangerine Scented Candle (SKU# 56879) may have an unexpected burn pattern. The candle flame can spread from the wick to the wax causing a larger than expected flame, posing a safety risk. 

 

If you purchased the Mango Tangerine Scented Candle, please do not use it. We urge you to discard the product or return it to any Trader Joe’s for a full refund.  

Re: BEAUTY NEWS 2.0

I found this notice on Seed Phytonutrients' website this afternoon.  Their Facebook and IG are not showing this or any other message, nor could I find any information via Google search.  This must have happened recently.  I love their moisturizing conditioner and anti-frizz balm.
