Walmart Amplifies Premium Beauty Presence with New Online Custom Shops
Walmart is enhancing its online presence in the premium beauty market with the launch of dedicated shops featuring over 1,000 skincare and haircare products. The initiative introduces 20 prestigious brands, such as CosRX and Paul Mitchell, to Walmart’s digital platform, offering customized storefronts and rich editorial content for deeper brand engagement. This strategic expansion, which includes fulfillment services for smaller brands, comes as Walmart aims to compete with Amazon, which sold over 1 billion beauty products in 2023 and is projected by Morgan Stanley to become the largest beauty retailer by 2025.

Embracing Amazon: The Evolving Relationship Between Fashion, Beauty Brands and the E-commerce Giant
Fashion and beauty brands are increasingly adopting Amazon as a vital sales channel, recognizing its enormous reach and potential for tapping into new customer bases. Initially hesitant, premium brands like Coach and Clinique have started experimenting with Amazon, encouraged by the platform's extensive daily traffic and advanced technological features like AI and AR for an enhanced shopping experience. While challenges remain, particularly for luxury brands seeking to maintain exclusivity and brand integrity, the benefits of Amazon's massive scale and logistical advantages are enticing more companies to explore this avenue.
