CVS/pharmacy announced the opening of the third Beauty 360 location in Ridgefield, CT at 467 Main Street. The prestige beauty store also added ten new brands across cosmetics and skincare and has introduced hair care to its product offering. The new brand partners are Vincent Longo, Cargo, Jack Black, Anthony Logistics for Men, Mario Badescu, Bioelements, Philip B, LOLA, H20+ and Neil George and will be available at all Beauty 360 locations beginning this month.
Beauty 360 was launched by CVS/pharmacy in November 2008 with the inaugural location in Washington, D.C. (1350 Connecticut Ave NW), followed soon after by the second store in Mission Viejo, CA (25272 Marguerite Parkway). All Beauty 360 stores are adjacent to CVS/pharmacy locations and accessible via a breezeway. The retail model of placing a prestige beauty shopping environment next door to a CVS/pharmacy location has enjoyed a successful launch period and more stores are scheduled to open throughout 2009.
