The Beauty Edit · 2025 Shanghai Chapter
Proven results. Real distribution. Lasting partnerships.
The Happening
For its 2025 chapter, The Beauty Edit took over Zhang Yuan (W8) — a premium heritage address in downtown Jing'an, Shanghai — and transformed it into a deep forest. The theme, If Nature Could Speak, cast the ten cross-border brands on show as the language of nature itself. Beauty advisors worked the floor throughout, gathering consumer and trade feedback and selling through a bespoke TBE mini-programme. The gallery was followed by two livestreams and a presence at two trade fairs, with a promotional trailer running across selected metro stations and shopping malls.
