Ulta Beauty lovers won't be able to stock up on the company's cosmetic goods at Target, but you'll still be able to shop at the chain's own stores and through a new retail collaborative that's on its way.
Retail company Pacsun announced the limited-time partnership in a July 27 news release, touting the exclusivity of its collection with Ulta Beauty. Customers will have the chance to shop in-store or online for makeup from top brands like Fenty Beauty and NYX Professional Makeup, along with a "Who's Gonna Stop Us" hoodie.
The move comes as Ulta Beauty's five-year partnership with Target is set to end in August, with Target replacing 600 Ulta Beauty mini-stores nationwide with its own Target Beauty Studios, USA TODAY reported. Ulta continues to maintain
several dozen stand-alone Ulta Beauty stores across Michigan.
"Beauty has become one of the most powerful forms of self-expression, and at Ulta Beauty, we're committed to showing up where culture is created and embraced," said Kelly Mahoney, chief marketing officer at Ulta Beauty, in the release. "Our collaboration with Pacsun is a celebration of individuality and creativity, bringing together fashion and beauty in a way that feels fresh, relevant and authentic for our guests. As an extension of our Rewrite the Rules summer campaign, this partnership encourages guests of all ages to express themselves boldly, explore their personal style with confidence and discover beauty on their own terms."
