Re: BEAUTY NEWS 2.0

Thank you for the tag @itsfi , This is very interesting, smart and timely sponsorship.

 

While watching Running Point on Netflix, I actually thought for a moment that Sephora should be sponsoring an actual Women's sports team 😄 Having a Gen Z & a Gen Alpha daughter, I can attest this marketing initiative is a very smart choice.

 

Remember how gorgeous Simone Biles looked throughout the olympics. My daughter actually pointed out how perfect her makeup was and how it didn't budge or smudge. I jokingly said she must have it set with UD All nighter Setting spray and my girl wanted that spray right. Now a bottle permanently lives in her backpack. My point is this is not only a great step to empower and support women in sports but also clever marketing.

Re: BEAUTY NEWS 2.0

Well said @fatimamummy. I agree with how you characterized this business venture and your story about Simone Biles is so well taken. 💖 It really brings it home. 

Re: BEAUTY NEWS 2.0

@itsfi I saw Sephora was one of the on court sponsors of the 3-on-3 basketball league as well, and I think Cameron Brink is a UD ambassador. 

Re: BEAUTY NEWS 2.0

I like the sound of this partnership @alexasteph; a little ashamed I wasn't aware of a new WNBA team in my backyard but pleased there is one. 🏀 

 

Also Sephora Canada will be a founding partner (the first) in Canadas first WNBA team, the Toronoto Tempo. Their play will begin next season. Tagging some of our Canadian BIC beauties - @ather @Mellmars1185 @Guessgal @fatimamummy @TraceyEB @CynthieLu @melissapurple22 @heartsmyface @pocketvenus @Mochapj @haleyvvvv @keana1 @bakeamuffin I feel like I'm missing some folks; so sorry!

Re: BEAUTY NEWS 2.0

@itsfi, thanks for the tag! Great to see Sephora sponsor women's sports and that there's a Canadian WNBA team!

Re: BEAUTY NEWS 2.0

There's been some chatter here over the WNBA team in Toronto. It's been kinda exciting, Serena Williams joined as one of owners ( I think early this year) @itsfi 

Re: BEAUTY NEWS 2.0

@itsfi  This isn’t a collab I thought I would see but very excited!!! 😊 

Re: BEAUTY NEWS 2.0

Right, @ather?! I've been surprised, pleasantly so, by some of the recent Sephora ventures. 👍

Re: BEAUTY NEWS 2.0

@itsfi Basketball is lower on my list of sports I enjoy (football, hockey, and tennis are my big 3), but since I do like a lot of them I’m fairly current with any sporting related news haha. The colorway and logos of the new team is pretty cool, and despite not being a massive basketball fan in general, I do really like the direction they’re taking the new team. 

Re: BEAUTY NEWS 2.0

That's awesome that you're current @alexasteph; it's a good knowledge to have, imo. I used to with football, basketball (pro and college) and decades ago could be conversant with players and teams with baseball but football and basketball are probaby the two I tend to be ones I'm most up on, but not as much in the last couple of years. I'll have to check out the schedule for the Golden State Valkyries and maybe take my niece to a game. 

Re: BEAUTY NEWS 2.0

Heads up. Sephora is changing their return policy once again.

Re: BEAUTY NEWS 2.0

@makeitup305 thanks for the info!!!  30 days is just too short for me.  I've decreased my beauty purchases so much since Ulta changed theirs to 30 days, and already decreased at Sephora.  Shame.

Re: BEAUTY NEWS 2.0

@greeneyedgirl107 on the positive side, maybe it'll make us more conscientious buyers.

Re: BEAUTY NEWS 2.0

So many things to discuss! @itsfi 

 

Why makeup within makeup, like Sephora is LVMH, they have stakes in so many brands already?

 

Will I like this price tag? I'm thinking no, thus far.  I can appreciate a LV bag without needing it, so I can see myself appreciating this from afar.

 

Oof, so is this what's been happening with the lackluster releases (except Glass Skin) with PMG Labs?  What's going to happen to her brand...????

Re: BEAUTY NEWS 2.0

Agreed, a lot to be digested and discussed with this @danielledanielle. Very cool for Pat McGrath and big congrats to her. I do agree that this probably a significant if not the primary reason for less newness coming from her line; hoping though that Glass Skin is a sign that she will have more to come, with her makeup, in particular (I haven't tried her skincare yet so I can't speak to that) but I'm pretty sure most of us would love to see more newness from her. 

 

I also agree that the price tag will likely be heftier, a lot heftier, than her PML beauties. Based on the article too, doesn't look like the collection will be available in department stores like Hermes in Nordstrom or Saks, etc. There's probably a host of business reasons for LV jumping into the space, likely including a desire for more market share and being competitive with other luxury brands. I also read an article about the "lipstick effect" and that's also another possible factor but the makeup line has been in development for 5 years and my recollection is that it was just last year that LVMH didn't have record breaking results - sales picked up in the last quarter but 2024 wasn't a great year for them as a whole. 

 

I don't know whether I'll pick up anything from the new makeup collection, but I am interested to see what Pat McGrath and LV have put together for their initial launch - it's a lot of product they have; wondering whether they'll release products category by category over time a la Hermes or one product first like Celine; or all at once. It seems like they have an pretty extensive selection of color cosmetics all ready to go, though it seems like a lot to release all at once, the lipsticks in particular.
