In-room amenities have undergone a major upgrade. High-end toiletries from brands like Le Labo and C.O. Bigelow have become table stakes for luxury hotels, and many properties have elevated their grooming game with items like Dyson and T3 hair dryers — The Langham Hotels and The Encore Boston Harbor are two examples that offer these high-end heat tools, respectively. Now, hotels are upping the beauty ante by offering beauty products in the minibar, allowing consumers to purchase a lipstick, for example, along with the usual nuts and bottled water. In short? A new era of the minibar has arrived.

In February, Patrick Ta Beauty added three new shades to his Major Headlines Double-Take Crème & Powder Blush Duo assortment, bringing the number of offerings to 12. The $38 product includes cream and powder blush formulas. Ta, now famously, uses the cream over the powder — the reverse of conventional makeup wisdom. #Blush is having a moment, to say the least. According to Circana, in the U.S. prestige makeup market, blush sales reached $462 million in the past 12 months, up 36% compared to the prior year. It’s the fastest-growing product category within face makeup. In this piece by Sara Spruch-Feiner, we speak to Natallia Bambiza, Jacqueline Barrett, and Kimberly Villatoro.

#Fashion is no stranger to the value of the tennis court, but this year, beauty is increasingly making a play for the tenniscore crowd. Lancôme tapped rising Polish tennis star Iga Świątek as an ambassador in April, while La Roche-Posay USA teamed up with Italian wonderkid Jannik Sinner in February. In May, E.L.F. BEAUTY launched a partnership with legend Billie Jean King to promote corporate diversity. Rather than going the sponsorship route, Serena Williams, perhaps contemporary tennis’s most influential figure, launched her makeup line WYN BEAUTY by Serena Williams this spring. In this piece by Emily Jensen, we speak to Chidinma Asonye.
Fashion and tennis have long been successful partners. Can beauty join the game, too?

Before business partners Nicole Collins and Corey Weiss launched the 213Deli text-commerce beauty shopping platform last year, they were behind the scenes working for digital commerce trailblazers like Ipsy and Flip. Both found inspiration for 213Deli across these experiences, but it’s the changing commerce marketplace in China — where consumers are accustomed to live shopping, text commerce and shopping across social media — that drove the duo to launch a text-only shopping platform stateside. 213Deli does not have an e-commerce platform and consumers provide their credit card information over text during their first purchase. The allure for many shoppers is free shipping and a gift with purchase, which is often a full-size complimentary product from the same brand. To a consumer, 213Deli is streamlined and simple. But behind the scenes, Collins and Weiss have developed a custom tech stack to make the concept possible. And they’re growing the business through partnerships with trending beauty brands and industry thought leaders like editors, artists and influencers. Collins and Weiss discuss the advent of the brand and the future of text-to-shop commerce in the U.S. in today’s episode of the Glossy Beauty Podcast. #textcommerce

At the end of last year, #SoHo was by far the hottest #retail destination in New York City. In the third quarter of 2023, the neighborhood had more than double the number of store openings than the next most popular destination, Grand Central — and it remains the place where many fashion brands are investing their retail dollars. But all that interest has also made SoHo one of the most expensive places in the city to open a store. When Sasha Chou, founder of the independent beauty and personal care brand Mumu Bath, was looking to open her first store, she found leases in SoHo to be in excess of $14,000 per month. She faced similar prices in other hot retail areas like #Nolita. But what areas in New York City will offer a brand value without breaking the bank? Glossy spoke to several experts on the city’s retail industry to find out what neighborhoods brands and realtors consider the next big shopping destination. In this piece by Danny Parisi, we speak to Rebecca Fitts of Alvarez & Marsal.
