Vancouver-born-and-based beauty brand Okoko Cosmétiques has moved from a strictly online presence to a physical shopping experience with the opening of its first retail space, making its much-coveted luxe, green skin-care line available to bricks-and-mortar shoppers.
The flagship store, in Gastown, houses an artisan lab where products are lovingly made by hand alongside a boutique for all things self-care (think: products focused on beauty from the inside-out). Sip tea while you receive a personalized consult from Okoko’s team of experienced beauty formulators, or simply connect with other people who share a love of beauty and wellness.
Says Okoko founder Oyéta Kokoroko, “My vision for the atelier is for it to become a hub for learning and de-stressing, where my team will offer workshops, consultations on wellness topics such as holistic nutrition, creating skin care, DIY beauty and much more. I think it was critical for us to be a part of the brick-and-mortar business model in addition to our robust e-commerce strategy, but I wanted to add layers to the traditional retail concept.” —Noa Nichol
