M&S strikes new beauty partnership with Clinique

34 M&S stores will have Clinique counters and another 40 will have bespoke product displays

Marks & Spencer has unveiled a partnership with Clinique to sell the beauty brand’s products both in-store and online.

Around 500 Clinique products will be available for free next-day delivery through the M&S website as well as for click and collect across 700 locations from the summer.

Additionally, 34 M&S stores will have Clinique counters and another 40 will have bespoke product displays.

The deal comes as M&S continues to reinvent itself as a selling platform for third-party brands.

Last year, the company struck deals with womenswear brands Joules, Phase Eight, Hobbs and Seasalt to sell their products online and in-store.

It has also agreed tie-ups with Ghost, Fat Face and White Stuff and bought a 25 per cent stake in Nobody’s Child and purchased upmarket fashion label Jaeger out of administration.
