The Latest Beauty Store Openings You Can Look Forward to in Singapore
There are certain things we enjoy from the physicality of retail therapy, such as sampling new makeup shades, or getting a whiff of that new perfume you’ve been eyeing. And though this year has certainly highlighted the importance of a strong online presence, physical retail is still here to stay, albeit with new safety and social measures, of course.
In an industry such as beauty, where touch, smell, and the entire sensorial experience plays a huge part in our appreciation of a product (much less so when we’re deciding to purchase a product!), it seems that brick and mortar won’t be going down anytime soon. So if you are looking to indulge in some retail therapy, there’s plenty to choose from.
Ahead, check out some of the latest beauty store openings that have caught our eye.
Local skincare brand RE:ERTH has launched its first physical retail outlet at TANGS at Tang Plaza, making it the first homegrown label to do so. You can look forward to their minimal-inspired range of products that contains RE: ERTH’s highly efficacious and patented Japanese White and Spring Turmeric, as well as retail ambassadors who can talk you through your individual skin concerns. A key feature is also their Sustainability Corner, which allows you to bring in your empty skincare packaging to be fully recycled, thanks to their partnership with Environmental Solutions (Asia) that converts it to non-fossil derived fuel.
RE:ERTH is located at Tangs Beauty Hall on Level One at Tangs Orchard

The Italian luxury makeup brand is opening its biggest store in Singapore yet.

Chantecaille
Known for itsrange of luxury botanical skincare and cosmetics, with a strong dedication to wildlife and environmental sustainability, Chantecaille’s latest boutique at Tangs reflects just that philosophy, with a Philanthropy wall highlighting their conservation efforts around the globe. The soft, clean white space also comes with a showcase of their unique botanical ingredients used in the products that they stock, and also introduces their private facial cabin -- signature face treatments which were previously only available in Seoul and Hong Kong, and will be introduced in time to come due with COVID-19 measures.
