Was not expecting this, but Ariana Grande is launching her own makeup line called r.e.m. beauty and first product to release will focus on the eyes, which I think matches the name she picked and is very on brand.

Mellmars1185 · ‎12-28-2021

R.E.M is the name of a popular music group, no?Losing my Religion is one of their hits? I cant seperate the two ! Sorry Arianna but not my favourite choice of name brand

Titian06 · ‎12-29-2021

@Mellmars1185 - Yes! One of my favorite bands! I almost posted a comment stating what you did, but decided not to. Thanks for posting. To me REM will always be the band! 💖💖💖

Kim888 · ‎09-07-2021

Jennifer Aniston is coming out with her own line of skincare/body care. The Email said we should have a first look or drop in 24 hours

thomasinaC · ‎09-01-2021

I'm not totally sure where to put this...but are there any recs for a pure white shimmery highlighter? Preferably powder 🙂 Like Fenty's Diamond Dust, but for some reason that seems to irritate my face but not my body 😞 Like to put a bit on my nose, on my upper cheekbone, etc. I was looking at Benefit Cookie but that seems to have a golden tint, and a lot of highlighters have a pinky tint I'm not into rn. For reference I'm Armani LSF 3.5 and NC25 in MAC. Wondering if there was anything new on the horizon. Thanks!

SportyGirly125 · ‎09-01-2021

@thomasinaC Also, if you have questions in the future like this you can ask them in this thread Ask a Beauty Director

thomasinaC · ‎09-02-2021

@SportyGirly125 Thanks for the info! New here so made a bit of a faux pas- Sorry!

SportyGirly125 · ‎09-01-2021

@thomasinaC You can always use eyeshadow as a highlighter.

I'm also MAC NC25, Armani LSF shade 5

Here are some suggestions

Makeup Revolution Set the Tone

MAKEUP BY MARIO Master Crystal Reflector™

Maybelline Face Studio Master Holographic Prismatic Highlighter 050

danielledanielle · ‎09-01-2021

I know I've posted this before, but there's an official date! Now, wondering if this is just an online offering 🤔🤔

WinglessOne · ‎09-01-2021

@danielledanielle Oh, I just noticed Hyper Skin on the Brands landing page! I'll probably buy the mini size to test. For me, it won't be a vitamin C serum; it'll be more of a kojic acid + bearberry serum. It'd be very convenient to be able to grab this in-store, but the product page ( Hyper Skin Mini Brightening Dark Spot Vitamin C Serum 0.5 oz/ 15 mL ) says it's online only.

itsfi · ‎09-01-2021

@danielledanielle, yay, a launch date! 😃 I think you’re right that it may be just an online offering.

SportyGirly125 · ‎08-23-2021

Beautylish will be carrying Chantecaille soon....Sephora needs to jump on the bandwagon.

Loretta55 · ‎08-01-2021

I received an email from Kohl’s that you can now purchase Sephora + Kohl’s on line. You can not apply Kohl’s cash or coupons to your order but you can earn Kohl’s rewards on your purchases . Also according to the website you can earn Beauty Insider points. I will be looking into how to receive both. This will definitely help with the $75.00 towards free shipping. Not sure when the in store shopping will be available but when I was at Kohl’s a couple of weeks ago the sign stated that the area will be open in August. At the moment 125 brands are available for purchase.

Thought I'd post an update on the Marc Jacobs situation. Business of Fashion reported on the situation roughly a week ago. Excerpts below

Marc Jacobs Beauty is unloading product and considering changes to the brand as its licensing agreement with Kendo enters its final months.

...

A customer service representative for Marc Jacobs Beauty told BoF the brand would be relaunching. A spokesperson said the Marc Jacobs Beauty licensing agreement with Kendo ends later this year, and the brand is “exploring opportunities with a new partner.”

“Marc Jacobs Beauty is not being discontinued,” the spokesperson said. “Currently, we are in the process of strategising the best way to reach our global customer going forward.”

Kendo, the LVMH-owned beauty incubator, manufactures Marc Jacobs Beauty, as well as Fenty Beauty and Ole Henriksen; meanwhile, LVMH-owned Sephora sells the products. A spokesperson for Sephora declined to comment on whether the beauty retailer will continue to sell Marc Jacobs Beauty in the long term.

...

Other popular beauty brands, like Kylie Cosmetics, have undergone rebrands and reformulations in recent months, opting for vegan and cruelty-free products in keeping with the prevailing industry trends and consumer expectations. But in the case of Kylie Cosmetics, speculation surfaced that the rebrand was forced due to ongoing litigation with Seed Beauty and Coty Inc., where the former accused the latter of stealing trade secrets.

Whether Marc Jacobs Beauty undergoes a product and branding change depends on its contract with Kendo, and who owns the rights to the formulations, said Oliver Herzfeld, senior vice president and chief legal officer at Beanstalk, a branding firm that helps facilitate licensing deals for consumer goods. Licensing agreements are typically three- to five-years long, and usually up for renewal if the relationship is successful, he added.

“If the relationship is going well, [licensing partners] would have no reason not to renew the relationship, but ‘going well’ could be based on a lot of different factors like commercial success, how they’re behaving, royalty payment disputes,” Herzfeld said. “Ultimately the licensor has to protect its brand, that’s the number one thing.”

Tamara76 · ‎07-29-2021

Thanks for the official scoop - this is what I've been hearing in the rumor mill, too, @pocketvenus

SportyGirly125 · ‎06-17-2021

Glossier will be opening stores in Seattle, Los Angeles, London and New York. They had stores but closed them.

Tamara76 · ‎07-29-2021

Thanks, @SportyGirly125 ! I really liked the store in L.A., but the pop-up my daughter and I visited in Austin a couple years ago was even. more fun - it was bigger and had more room to move around - hopefully they'll remodel the permanent stores.

Kim888 · ‎06-17-2021

Nice! I visited their NY store once when it was open and it seemed well organized

From WWD:

A new program called “Clean Plus” is said to be banning petroleum-based ingredients and focusing more heavily on sustainability.

By James Manso on June 15, 202

Sephora is beefing up its clean beauty initiatives with a program called Clean Plus, sources tell WWD.

Several industry sources said the U.S.’s largest prestige beauty retailer will be introducing new parameters for brands to qualify as “Clean Plus,” which includes formulating without polyethylene glycol and other petroleum-based ingredients. Skin care, hair care and makeup brands are expected to comply by 2022; fragrance brands are given until March 31 of 2022, the sources said.

Sephora did not respond to WWD’s request for comment by press time.

Two sources said 30 percent of Sephora’s sales growth — which is nearing $3 billion in online sales for North America — is coming from the 92 Clean at Sephora brands, and Sephora is hoping to build out its assortment of clean hair care and color brands.

“A lot of these clean and sustainability initiatives are directed by consumers. It’s no longer Sephora doing above the call of duty, they’re responding to consumer demand,” said one source.

Although two of the sources described the upgrade as just updating the retailer’s standards, other sources allege that more rigorous standards around “clean” are meant to compete more directly with clean retailer Credo, which partnered last year with competitor Ulta Beauty. “Credo has become the gold standard,” one source said. “Credo is the destination for clean, but Sephora is the destination for prestige.”

There is a sustainability component to the certification process, a source said. “It’s actually very in-depth. They’re pretty strict,” one source said. “With this new program, you’re going to have some interesting brands come across.”
