An Italian beauty brand will open a new store at the Metrocentre this autumn.

Beauty and make-up firm Kiko Milano will open a new store in the shopping centre’s Red Mall this year.

The store will feature an extensive range of makeup, skincare, suncare, and haircare products, along with personalised beauty consultation services.

Paul Devin from Kiko Milano said: “As we continue our ambitious growth plans, bringing our brand to Metrocentre is one of the most exciting pillars of our strategy.

“With such an iconic shopping destination that has a great beauty offering, we cannot wait to bring our high quality Italian designed and made products to the consumers of the North East.”

Beauty lovers will have even more choice from this autumn with Sephora also opening in September.

Ben Cox from Metrocentre added: “This latest signing reaffirms Metrocentre’s status as the premier shopping destination in the North East.
