Britain's M&S has announced a new partnership with Benefit Cosmetics which will see the retailer offer the brand in its UK stores as well as online.
According to the retailer, customers will be able to shop the Benefit collection at M&S.com by autumn or winter of this year and avail of a free click-and-collect service on the following day to over 700 M&S locations.
Five destination M&S stores will be home to a Benefit Cosmetics counter, with beauty experts on hand to assist customers on makeup products and tips & tricks for instant beauty fixes.
While an additional 10 stores will have product available – displayed in a bespoke Benefit Cosmetics fixture.
Third-Party Brands
Tara Singleton, head of Beauty at M&S, said, “We are so pleased to be welcoming Benefit Cosmetics as our latest partner as we continue to introduce dynamic third-party brands to complement our own beauty offer, helping us become more relevant, more often for our customers.
"Beauty plays a big part in our ‘Brands at M&S’ strategy as we know brands such as Benefit Cosmetics inspire loyalty and repeat purchase around their cult products and therefore play an important role in how and where customers shop. Bringing these brands to M&S.com and selected stores, will give customers – both existing and new – more reasons to shop with M&S.
Product Range
The collection will comprise more than 200 products and will include all the brand’s one-of-a-kind cult favourites like Benetint, They’re Real! Mascara, the POREfessional Face Primer, Hoola Bronzer and Gimme Brow+ with prices ranging from £12.50 to £48.
“The launch of Benefit Cosmetics on M&S reflects our commitment to making our products accessible, we are passionate about building a beauty community for all and delighted to be joining M&S Beauty," added Sarah Harbon, general manager of Benefit Cosmetics, said,
"The partnership will provide a unique omni-channel opportunity for new and our existing customers to easily shop and discover the UK’s no. 1 Prestige Makeup brand alongside leading British retailer, M&S.”
The launch follows the successful partnership with global skincare and make-up brand, Clinique, earlier this year.
