Welcome to the MECCA Newsroom
The MECCA Newsroom is where we share what’s new – from announcements and creative collaborations to statements about our people, purpose, and progress.
For nearly 30 years, MECCA has existed to embolden through beauty – to help people look, feel and be their best – and that commitment extends beyond our stores and brands to the communities, culture, and causes that inspire us every day.
