Good news #selfcare fans.

Rituals is opening up a standalone store in Cork, with a dedicated outlet set to launch in Mahon Point on Thursday, July 2nd, 2020.

The Eastern beauty-inspired cosmetics brand, which is currently sold upstairs in Brown Thomas on St Patrick Street, will now be creating a permanent home for their full range of body care, scented candles, fragrance sticks, assorted teas, natural skincare and “soulwear”.

Here’s a sneak peek at the first Cork Rituals store:

Rituals opened its first store on Amsterdam’s Kalverstraat in 2000, followed by openings in London, Madrid, Antwerp, Paris, Lisbon, Berlin, Stockholm and New York. The luxury brand now has over 730 stores, more than 2150 shop-in-shops and four city spas in 29 countries worldwide.

The Cork store opening is part of Rituals Cosmetics’ growth strategy and investment across Ireland under the leadership of UK & Ireland Managing Director, Penny Grivea.

“We are delighted to be opening in one of Cork’s best-loved shopping centres, and believe that the new Rituals store will help the locals and visitors of this iconic city to enjoy life’s little moments after an unprecedented few months.” Ms Grivea said.

Get there early to nab a luxury goodie bag

To celebrate the launch, Rituals will be offering the first 50 visitors a luxury goodie bag on July 2nd, when the store will be open from 10am. Other promotional offers throughout the month will include a free body scrub with every €40 spend and a €5 off gift card for all customers

Social distancing is in place inside the store, which is on the Lower Mall at Mahon Point, and a limited number of customers will be allowed inside.
