Sephora Marks the First Large-Scale Beauty Retailer on Shipt Marketplace

BIRMINGHAM, Ala., March 9, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, Shipt, the same-day shopping and delivery company, and renowned prestige beauty retailer, Sephora, announce a new partnership, bringing a wide range of beauty and wellness products to the doorsteps of Shipt customers in as soon as an hour.

To celebrate the latest expansion to their marketplace and kick off the spring season, Shipt is partnering with Jonathan Van Ness, Emmy-nominated television personality, The New York Times best-selling author, podcaster and hairstylist,  to launch the 'Spring So Clean Collection.' The limited-edition shoppable collection will feature a curated list of clean beauty products from Van Ness, including spring must-have items for a complete beauty routine. From skin-softening cleansers, to dewy highlighters, to serums and hair care, the curated list will be available exclusively to Shipt shoppers now through March 31, 2022. 

"With the spring season right around the corner, what better way to welcome the warmer weather than refreshing your beauty routine by adding products such as a sunscreen with a higher SPF and a hydrating hair cream?" said Jonathan Van Ness. "And now that I can get my Sephora clean favorites delivered right to my door in as soon as an hour - no matter where I am in the country - through the personalized Shipt shopping experience, having a fabulous spring glow is easier than ever."

As the first national beauty retailer on the Shipt marketplace, Sephora is joining over 140 retailers and adding nearly 500 locations to the platform in cities across the United States. To further showcase its commitment to creating high-quality, personalized shopping experiences, customers can earn Beauty Insider rewards from their purchases on the Shipt marketplace at checkout. The partnership is another way that Shipt continues to innovate in the same-day shopping and delivery service space by creating more diverse offerings for customers.

"We are thrilled to be entering the prestige beauty market with Sephora," said Rina Hurst, Shipt's Chief Business Officer. "The addition of Sephora on our expanding marketplace meets the needs of our customers by providing a convenient, personalized delivery experience of their favorite premium branded beauty products, many of which you can't find anywhere else. Sephora demonstrates a commitment to providing a high-quality experience for their customers, a signature differentiator for Shipt, and we are thrilled to be a valued partner alongside them."

"For Sephora, this new venture with Shipt marks a thrilling time as we share our commitment to delivering an exceptional client experience in a world where consumer needs are ever-changing," said Carolyn Bojanowski, Senior Vice President, General Manager of eCommerce, Sephora. "As we continue to cater our offerings to meet our clients' unique needs, it was important to us to find a partner who not only had the potential to help expand our reach to new-to-Sephora clients, but also support our current clients and new ways of experiencing beauty retail today."
