The collaboration will build on continued growth and success of Victoria’s Secret’s beauty category and expand and deepen connection with consumers
REYNOLDSBURG, Ohio, April 29, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Victoria’s Secret & Co. (NYSE: VSCO) today launched best-selling Victoria’s Secret Beauty and PINK Beauty products in Amazon’s store. Approximately 120 different products are available and eligible for fast, free delivery with Prime. Customers can seamlessly shop the assortment of products in the Victoria’s Secret storefront.
The collaboration is the latest example of VS&Co’s growing and successful beauty category, and how the company has been able to innovate and engage customers in new ways since becoming an independent company in August 2021. VS Beauty will expand its product offerings and reach beyond the company’s stores and e-commerce site, therefore expanding and deepening its connection with customers.

As consumers increasingly purchase beauty products through the Amazon store, this collaboration will bring a beauty industry leader to more customers. The launch will also allow VS Beauty to improve and enhance its shopping experience in the Amazon store.
"We’re excited to give our customers a convenient way to shop their favorite Victoria’s Secret and PINK Beauty products," said Carla Vernón, Amazon Vice President of Consumables Categories. "With their variety of floral, fresh fragrances and lotions, there’s a scent to make everyone feel confident and beautiful."
