To celebrate the latest expansion to their marketplace and kick off the spring season, Shipt is partnering with Jonathan Van Ness, Emmy-nominated television personality, The New York Times best-selling author, podcaster and hairstylist, to launch the ‘Spring So Clean Collection.’ The limited-edition shoppable collection will feature a curated list of clean beauty products from Van Ness, including spring must-have items for a complete beauty routine. From skin-softening cleansers, to dewy highlighters, to serums and hair care, the curated list will be available exclusively to Shipt shoppers now through March 31, 2022.
“With the spring season right around the corner, what better way to welcome the warmer weather than refreshing your beauty routine by adding products such as a sunscreen with a higher SPF and a hydrating hair cream?” said Jonathan Van Ness. “And now that I can get my Sephora clean favorites delivered right to my door in as soon as an hour – no matter where I am in the country – through the personalized Shipt shopping experience, having a fabulous spring glow is easier than ever.”
As the first national beauty retailer on the Shipt marketplace, Sephora is joining over 140 retailers and adding nearly 500 locations to the platform in cities across the United States. To further showcase its commitment to creating high-quality, personalized shopping experiences, customers can earn Beauty Insider rewards from their purchases on the Shipt marketplace at checkout. The partnership is another way that Shipt continues to innovate in the same-day shopping and delivery service space by creating more diverse offerings for customers.
