If there’s one thing Dubai knows how to do, it’s turn shopping into an experience and this time, Galeries Lafayette Dubai is serving up something irresistibly sweet. From October 22 to November 2, the department store’s beauty floor transforms into a candy-coated wonderland for Beauty & Candy Week, a 12-day celebration of two universal obsessions: beauty and candy.
In collaboration with the Museum of Candy, the event fuses indulgence, play, and self-expression into one dazzling, sugar-fueled experience. Picture walking through a pastel playground filled with candy-inspired installations, immersive pop-ups, influencer-led sessions, and beauty masterclasses all designed to make your serotonin (and selfies) skyrocket.
Your golden ticket? The Beauty & Candy Passport, a guide to explore interactive activations from top luxury beauty brands like YSL, Tom Ford, Givenchy, Armani, Kilian, Amouage, and more. Collect stamps at each stop to unlock exclusive treats like deluxe samples, makeup touch-ups, custom lipstick creations, and even Baklava- and Éclair-flavored ice cream (yes, really). Spend Dhs350 in-store, and you’ll receive a goodie bag plus your own passport to the sweetest journey in town.
Expect the full Dubai experience, from pop-ups and K-beauty takeovers to a meet-and-greet with Antati Skincare’s founder, Toufik, and complimentary services from Essentials Salon. Beauty enthusiasts can also join masterclasses by experts from YSL, Kilian, Guerlain, and more, all set against a candy-colored backdrop designed to inspire and educate.
Whether you’re a makeup maven, skincare stan, or just here for the sugar rush, Beauty & Candy Week is your cue to get your sweet tooth on.
