Scarlett Johansson’s Skincare Brand The Outset Shuts Down After 4 Years: ‘An Incredible Journey’

The brand said existing orders will be fulfilled, but online ordering has stopped as products remain available through Nordstrom, Revolve and Goop.

  • On Monday, September 28, skincare brand The Outset announced it is winding down operations, with co-founders Scarlett Johansson and Kate Foster confirming that online ordering has ended.
  • Johansson and Foster launched the brand in 2022 to provide a 'white t-shirt' of skincare, aiming to deliver a 'clear, approachable approach to beauty.'
  • With approximately 9,000 brands vying for consumer attention, the line struggled to distinguish itself within a saturated market that includes established competitors like Rihanna's Fenty Beauty.
  • While online shopping at theoutset.com ended, the brand confirmed all existing orders will be processed, though loyal customers expressed disappointment on social media.
  • This closure follows a trend of celebrity-founded beauty brands shuttering over the past year, as Gwen Stefani's Gxve Beauty and Drew Barrymore's Flower Beauty also ceased trading.
