Dermstore is US web store which sells cosmetics and skin care products. In 2021, it was acquired by THG plc from Target Corporation for £260.9m and migrated onto the company's Ingenuity e-commerce platform. [1]

History [ edit ]

Dermstore was founded by dermatologist Craig Kraffert in 1999. [3] In 2008, Dermstore launched a subscription service called BeautyFIX . The monthly subscription service offered beauty boxes containing skin care, hair care and makeup products for a fee. [4] In 2012, the company expanded from distributing professional skin care to consumer cosmetics brands, [5] and on March 19, 2013, the company opened its flagship store in Hermosa Beach, California . [6]

On August 6, 2013, Target Corporation acquired the Dermstore Beauty Group. [7] Dermstore became a wholly owned subsidiary of Target which operated as a separate entity under its online name, Dermstore.com. [8] Dermstore's product offering consisted of over 350 brands [9]

In December 2020, THG plc announced it would buy Dermstore from Target Corporation for $350 million. [10] The deal closed on February 2, 2021 and Dermstore was migrated onto THG's Ingenuity e-commerce platform. [1]
