Founded in 1991, Space NK first opened its doors in Covent Garden in 1993, selling fresh smoothies, independent fashion labels and hard-to-find beauty treasures from emerging international brands such as Diptyque, By Terry and NARS. Word soon spread, and more stores offering the very best in beauty opened across the UK and Ireland. Today there are 72 stores and a further 29 in the US. Space NK also launched 8 stores in China in 2018 and there are more on the horizon.
