We’ve all been there. Dreamy TikToks and Reels featuring niche beauty brands that look oh-so-good. The problem? We all ~collectively~ know they’re impossible to find in the GCC. That is, up until now. Lucky for us, Peach just opened its beauty e-doors to a world full of hard-to-find, emerging, and OG fav beauty brands. We had to know more so we sat down with the team of this new beauty e-comm to get all the deets. But first, excuse us as we breathe a big sigh of relief. *Phew*.

The Inspo
We were curious to know if the Peach team also felt the heartbreak over pining for products not available in the region. Turns out, they did. “Our CEO found a gap in the market for a platform of convenience to purchase your favourite professional products but also be able to enjoy mainstream and boutique beauty brands. The vision has always been to be the go-to one-stop shop platform where you are able to buy your favourite products and enjoy discovering our curation of hidden gems in the region.”
The Brands
Peach is “all about convenience, inclusivity, and availability. We bring our audience a selective luxury curation of hand-picked established and indie brands. Our products are sourced and sold based on our own personal experience to provide you with the best in beauty. Some of our best sellers include Bag All, Alexandre de Paris, WOUF, Curaprox, Davines, Dreem Distillery, and Evy. Whilst you are stocking up on your regular favourites, you can take some time to explore and find some great items to add to your beauty routine that you may have never heard of before.” Peach also carries a variety of sustainable and UAE homegrown brands, too.

Shop our picks
Before we get to the good stuff, we have some news that we know you’ll love. If you’re anything like us, chances are you buy something online and expect it to arrive asap. Thankfully, “orders are being prepared within 5 minutes of them being placed. Being Abu Dhabi based, we are able to offer an express delivery service of 4 hours within the city.”
Not in AD? No problem. “If you live in Dubai, Sharjah, Ajman, Umm Al-Quwain, Fujairah, or Ras Al Khaima you can enjoy our convenient next-day delivery. Recently, Peach has expanded to other GCC countries. Customers in Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Oman, Bahrain, and Qatar can receive their orders within one to two days.” With that being said, here are some of our must-have products.

A must-have for traveling, Bag All’s Packing Organizers (starting at Dhs79, peach.shop) keep our products, clothes, and minds (!) organised when packing for our next trip. They make great gifts for our besties, too.

We love a good face mask, and SJO Skin’s Happy Honey Mask (Dhs310, peach.shop) delivers on all its promises. Made for all skin types, this whipped mask is non-drying, combats breakouts, and restores the skin’s natural barrier. Prepare for a soft and supple complexion.
Taos Aer Lavender Myrrh Deodorant

Clean deodorants are the only thing going on our underarms. We love the Taos Aer Lavender Myrrh Deodorant (Dhs81, peach.shop) because it’s free of nasty ingredients and instead contains natural plant actives. We love its non-sticky texture and that it doesn’t leave residue on our crop tops.
