Prada Beauty is taking over Nordstrom stores this spring. Following the brand’s buzzy launch in US markets on January 15, Nordstrom is celebrating Prada Beauty — and its new-to-market skin care that’s exclusive to the retailer — with a Prada green pop-up that debuted this week at Nordstrom’s New York City Flagship store. Prada Beauty is also available to shop at nine other Nordstrom locations across the country and online at Nordstrom.com.

“We’re thrilled to be the exclusive retailer for the Prada Beauty skin launch and bringing the entire brand to life through an immersive experience in our stores,” says Debra Redmond, Nordstrom Vice President Division Merchandise Manager, Beauty. “As we think about what’s next in beauty, we are constantly looking at ways that inspire a sense of discovery for our customers. Partnering with Prada Beauty is a natural step towards how we think about the future of beauty.”

The runway-inspired Prada Beauty collection offers a simplified approach to editorial makeup and skin care, favoring mattes over glittery pigments, and presenting a tight edit of multitasking skin care formulas rather than a 10-step routine. The brand’s Nordstrom-exclusive skin care line, which runs from $95 to $410, includes an essence, moisturizing cream, eye and face serum, and a combo cleanser and makeup remover. The collection drummed up excitement when it made its runway debut at Prada’s spring 2024 show, where models were walked with matte makeup and glossy skin (courtesy of the brand’s serum, of course).

As for makeup, Prada Beauty’s offerings lend to full glam or no-makeup makeup looks à la Miuccia. The eyeshadow palettes, for example, are designed with four shades including matte neutrals, soft pearly tones, and a singular statement shade, like crimson or cornflower blue. Prada Beauty’s global creative makeup artist Lynsey Alexander previously told WWD that these color combinations are heavily inspired by the house’s library of prints. WWD Shop editors are wowed by the brand’s lip balms and matte lipsticks, the latter of which come in two buildable and intense formulations to choose from.

Beyond formulation, Prada Beauty’s packaging prioritizes sustainability without sacrificing a luxury feel: The weighty metallic lipsticks are refillable, as are the brand’s face serum, moisturizer, and foundation.
