This means it is one of the top industries that continues to earn even during a Pandemic as more women are at home and are learning how to better care for their skin or do their makeup. Here in Jamaica, things are no different as regardless of their socio-economic background, women will always look good. If you are thinking of launching a business, your best bet is to do something Beauty related whether it’s selling highly sought after makeup products or be the person or brand supplying + distributing makeup to retail outlets like The Beauty Spot.

The Beauty Spot is the brainchild of Marlene Gray, a Beauty Mogul with over 20 years of experience in the Beauty Industry. One can say Marlene knows a thing or two about the Business of Make-up as she started as a Flight Attendant for Air Jamaica where wearing make-up was a requirement of the job — here she learned the art of applying make-up that could be seen for miles away without it being overdone. 

As life went on she became a saleswoman for a leading beauty product distributor and with her love of make-up and innate nature of selling beauty products, she soon realized she wanted more. From there, she had the grand idea to approach Maybelline where she became the sole distributor, then went on to acquire L’Oreal soon after. Through her hard work, dedication, immense faith in God and her natural charm The Beauty Spot was born and the rest as you can say is history.

The Beauty Spot was founded in 2010 with it’s principal Mrs. Marlene Gray. The brand has positioned itself as Jamaica’s leading distributor of Cosmetics for brands including but not limited to: L’Oréal Paris, Maybelline NY,  Essie, Garnier, Carol’s Daughter, Absolute NY, Himalaya, Freeman Beauty and Lactovit just to name a few.

The company’s unique point of difference which makes International drug store products accessible to Jamaicans who might not have the opportunity to travel to acquire the products themselves, has also exposed Jamaicans to better care for their skin and how to apply make-up at home. This interest coupled with the success of platforms like YouTube has influenced a shift in the way consumers purchase products has led to a few other sister brands. These brands include EC Make-up Bar and EC Nail Bar where individuals can not only purchase the products for a great cost, but can have the items applied by professionals who work at the company. If you are a make-up + beauty enthusiast, you will appreciate these brands, as they take the guest work out of the time spent to look good.

The company continues to expand since the acquisition of the other cosmetic lines and has solidified its position as the leaders in the growth and development of the Cosmetic industry.

If you have visited a Pharmacy or any retail outlet that sells cosmetics products, chances are they received those products from The Beauty Spot Ja.
