Mashpee, MA Artworx Beauty, a luxury clean beauty studio and boutique, celebrated its grand opening in Mashpee Commons with a ribbon-cutting ceremony held in partnership with the Mashpee Chamber of Commerce.

Owned by local industry expert Kristin McKenzie, Artworx Beauty brings over 20 years of bridal expertise to its first physical retail location. Known for her signature “natural, Cape Cod” makeup style, McKenzie has expanded the Artworx name — a brand with nearly 40 years of heritage — into a curated space designed for both special event preparation and everyday beauty needs.

“Opening this boutique in Mashpee Commons allows us to bring a new level of clean, high-performance beauty to the Cape,” said McKenzie, owner of Artworx Beauty. “Our focus is on elevated, natural beauty. We’ve hand-selected brands that prioritize ingredient integrity without sacrificing the professional results our clients expect.”

Krysten Kelliher, marketing director at Mashpee Commons, noted that the addition of Artworx Beauty aligns perfectly with the destination’s commitment to unique, high-quality retail experiences.

“We are thrilled to welcome Kristin and the Artworx Beauty team to the Commons,” said Kelliher. “Their focus on clean, luxury beauty fills a unique niche in our community. It’s a wonderful addition for our local residents and visitors alike who are looking for personalized, expert-led services and high-end products that you simply can’t find anywhere else on the Cape.”

Artworx Beauty serves as a destination for skincare and cosmetics, carrying several luxury clean beauty lines that are exclusively available on the Cape at this location. Featured brands include: RMS Beauty, Jillian Dempsey, Fitglow Beauty, Embryolisse, Skyn Iceland, CurrentBody, and Saint Jane.

Beyond its retail offerings, the studio serves as a hub for professional artistry. While McKenzie and her team will continue to provide on-location bridal makeup for weddings, the new studio will host in-house bridal consultations, personalized makeup sessions for all ages and workshops.

In addition to cosmetics, the shop features professional makeup brushes, tools, and a curated selection of luxury gifts and candles.
