Brendan McDowell, founder and CEO of BPerfect Cosmetics said he plans to build on the success with the same offering in the North West.

He explained: “We are absolutely buzzing to open our second store in beautiful Derry-Londonderry in just a few week’s time.

“The North West has always been huge supporters of our brand and the people have always been so welcoming and I am personally so excited that this is our next move.

“We have big plans for the store to make it ‘fully inclusive’ with colourful, glitzy, amazing interior décor which ‘pushes every boundary’ housing a range of ten top beauty brands from top make-up artists and cosmetics retailers.

“We are also launching our new product this week; our “Perfect Storm” palette – which has already gained huge online interest.

“We also want to mirror what we have done in Belfast and to work with local charities who need our support, plans are already afoot, and we look forward to making a difference where we can.

“Our Belfast store has exceeded all expectations and despite being closed for four months, our online sales have gone through the roof.

“The past 12 months have been both a challenge and also a very real opportunity for us to grow our online brand.
