UK-based health and beauty retailer Boots opened, on 6 December 2023, its new 'Boots Beauty' store at Battersea Power Station in London, England, UK.
The 11,200ft² store marks a strategic move in Boots' ongoing beauty transformation and showcases more than 250 brands in skincare, cosmetics, body care, haircare, and fragrance. Boots said the store promises beauty solutions catering to diverse budgets.
Newly introduced brands, including R.E.M Beauty, Kerastase, Shu Uemura, and Bubble will grace both the physical store and boots.com website, ensuring accessibility nationwide.
Fusion of health and beauty expertise
Boots leverages its healthcare authority by incorporating a unique blend of health and beauty expertise in the store.
A dermatologist-trained Boots pharmacist offers free consultations for skin concerns, extending support for conditions such as acne, rosacea, eczema, and psoriasis.
Boots' plan includes introducing a pharmacist prescribing service for prescription-only medicines and expanding specialised skincare training for pharmacists across the UK.
