LOOKFANTASTIC launching pop-up at Trafford Centre where shoppers can win makeup

Manchester shoppers will be able to get big discounts on makeup and skincare at The Trafford Centre this weekend as beauty retailer LOOKFANTASTIC brings their first ever pop-up to the centre. And the first 100 customers will even get a free bag of goodies.

The pop up event launches tomorrow, Friday, July 15 and will be set up on the lower level of the Trafford Centre until Sunday. The three-day event will see customers enjoy live entertainment, sample best-selling summer products and bag 25 per cent off brands like Drunk Elephant and Anastasia Beverly Hills.

There will be a custom-made built-in conveyer belt showcasing the top rated hair care, skincare, body care, sun care and make-up to set shoppers up for summer. This includes pop-up exclusive brands Grow Gorgeous and Christophe Robin.

The first 100 customers to make a purchase at the LOOKFANTASTIC Summer pop-up on Friday will receive an exclusive LOOKFANTASTIC tote bag, which contains a beauty box and branded goodies, as well as summer holiday essentials like a beach ball, fan and water bottle.

But if you can’t make it on Friday, on each day of the pop-up, the first 50 customers who spend £125 will snap up the Holiday Beauty Bag worth over £200, containing brands including Bondi Sands, Sol De Janeiro, St Tropez and Elemis. Those who take a photo at the LOOKFANTASTIC photo wall and upload it to Instagram, tagging LOOKFANTASTIC will also be in with the chance to win a year’s supply of beauty products.

Keely Gough, General Manager at LOOKFANTASTIC, said, “We are excited to announce the launch of LOOKFANTASTIC’s first ever beauty pop-up event, Summer Beauty Destination. As the ultimate online beauty destination, we’re bringing the LOOKFANTASTIC experience to life at Trafford Centre, Manchester.

“Our pop-up shop will provide a fun and engaging space for customers to experience and purchase a range of bestselling brands, sure to set temperatures soaring, including Iconic London and Sol de Janeiro. We’ll be turning up the heat with special guests in attendance, as well as the hottest in-store discounts and product samples. Shoppers will be able to take home beauty freebies and visit our selfie station for the chance to win a year’s supply of beauty products.”

The LOOKFANTASTIC in-house pharmacist and beauty experts will also be at the pop-up sharing advice, product recommendations, tips and tricks, as well as live DJ entertainment from Hannah Lynch, Chaise Simon and Shenice to get customers in holiday mode while they shop.

Bruce Gardner, Director of Brand Experience at Trafford Centre, added, “We are delighted to be working with The Hut Group again, after hosting the hugely successful Zavvi pop-up at Christmas we are excited to welcome LOOKFANTASTIC to Trafford Centre.

“Featuring a unique blend of specialist face to face beauty advice, as well as an exciting conveyor belt display of products and instant win prizes, this activation is innovative and engaging for our customers. This is the first ever physical shopping experience for LOOKFANTASTIC fans and shoppers to enjoy and we are looking forward to seeing it come to life and the reaction on the mall.”

The LOOKFANTASTIC pop-up shop will be open from 11am to 8pm this Friday and Saturday, then 11am to 5pm on Sunday at the Trafford Centre’s lower level.
