The move is part of the cosmetic company’s re-branding overhaul; according to Coty, it will be the first flagship store in North America for a legacy mass beauty brand.

“It is our mission to show up for people wherever they are on their beauty journey and offer them innovation and experiences that inspire them to become whatever version of themselves they want to be in the moment,” said Coty SVP CoverGirl Ukonwa Ojo. “At CoverGirl, we believe that makeup is a powerful tool for creativity and self-expression. Opening a concept store will help bring this brand purpose to life in an immersive, elevated and multidimensional way.”
