April 28, 2026 – SHEIN, the global online fashion and lifestyle retailer, is expanding its marketplace ecosystem in the Middle East, reinforcing its commitment to helping partners scale, reach new audiences, and accelerate digital growth across the region. This commitment reflects SHEIN’s broader strategy to strengthen its regional presence by supporting local and international brands with new tools, marketing opportunities, and high‑impact digital formats.

On April 29, SHEIN will debut “SHEIN Magic Vanity”, a variety‑show style livestream that combines dramatic beauty makeovers with exclusive flash‑sale moments. Produced in collaboration with Chalhoub Group, beauty distributors Wesam and Multiplex and official brand partners including Maybelline and Misslyn, the program marks SHEIN MENA’s first large‑scale live beauty activation. The livestream will feature influencer makeup artists performing real‑time transformations on everyday fans, with exclusive deals and limited‑time bundles available throughout the broadcast. The event will stream simultaneously on TikTok and the SHEIN App, creating a dual‑platform experience designed to maximize reach and engagement.

Through SHEIN Magic Vanity, regional partners gain access to a powerful combination of visibility, engagement, and conversion. The livestream format enables brands to build stronger relevance with Gen Z and Millennial consumers, who increasingly rely on real‑time content for product discovery and purchasing decisions. The show’s interactive nature encourages higher digital engagement, while the flash‑sale mechanics create immediate sales opportunities. By integrating public social platforms with SHEIN’s private ecosystem, the event offers brands a scalable way to strengthen their long‑term presence in one of the region’s fastest‑growing e‑commerce markets.

Mohamad Dannaoui, Senior Manager and E-Tailer at Chalhoub Group, shared insights on the company’s cooperation experience with SHEIN in the Middle East e-commerce landscape, “This partnership aligns perfectly with our vision to expand our digital footprint, strengthen our e-commerce presence, and ensure our brands are available for customers wherever they want to shop. Advanced logistics and local infrastructure in the GCC, where SHEIN is heavily investing, enable localized fulfillment and faster delivery timelines.”

Mohammad Dwaikat, Country General Manager of SHEIN Middle East, highlighted the company’s continued support for local brands, “Our mission is to empower local merchants and brands with the resources and opportunities needed to thrive in the dynamic Middle Eastern market. Through strategic alliances and a focus on localized collaboration, we are dedicated to advancing the region’s digital transformation and sustainable growth.”

SHEIN’s partnership ecosystem is built on two core collaboration models that give brands multiple pathways to grow. The Marketplace Model allows third‑party sellers to open their own stores on the platform with free setup, traffic support, dedicated customer service, and ongoing training, which reduces operational burden and expands their online reach. The Retail Model complements this by allowing SHEIN to directly procure products from brands and distribute them across its global markets, offering seamless transactions, amplified visibility, and access to major marketing campaigns. Together, these models create a flexible, scalable foundation for brands at every stage of growth.

Looking ahead, SHEIN will continue introducing new digital features and collaboration opportunities to support business growth throughout 2026. The company remains committed to empowering regional merchants with the tools, visibility, and resources needed to thrive in a rapidly evolving digital landscape.
