Sanctum, known for curating transformative, music-driven movement experiences that empower the body and expand the mind, announced a Sephora UK x Sanctum collaboration that invites people to experience the kind of beauty that begins from within. Beauty is easy to reduce to what's visible on the surface—the skincare, the makeup, the carefully curated aesthetic—but beauty is equally rooted in mindset, confidence and embodiment, and together, Sephora UK and Sanctum are creating space for people to explore the concept through connection and self-expression.
Take a Beat with Sephora & Sanctum, a headphone meditation, is coming to select Sephora stores in Stratford, Manchester, Liverpool and Cardiff, alongside community-focused activations, exclusive Sanctum experiences and app content for Sephora Gold members, and more opportunities for people to plug into beauty as something that can be felt.
