YSL Beauté’s eye-catching pop-up has travelled from the deserts of Palm Springs to the tropical shores of Singapore.
YSL’s Beauty Station was first seen at Coachella 2019 in Palm Springs – now its landed for the first time in a duty-free shopping environment at Singapore’s Changi Airport.
YSL Beauté first hosted the YSL Beauty Station and pop-up store in Cathedral City, California, located along Route 111 on the road to the Coachella music festival. The campaign featured Kaia Gerber and the brand’s Global Beauty Director Tom Pecheux. At the activation, which included a gas station-like beauty pop-up, visitors over the weekend could experiment with a virtual mirror to try on shades, shop a product vending machine and learn how to achieve two distinct YSL makeup looks. The YSL Beauty Station was equipped with pink gas pumps and a lipstick sign paying homage to its Rouge Volupte Shine lip colour. Along with product showcases, the activation included an area where visitors could customise their own YSL lipstick.
