The first store for the brand, which was founded by Wende Zomnir in 1996, will be about 1000 square-feet and will feature six make-up areas, a digital video wall and an interactive photo booth.

"In some markets, there really isn’t a lot of department store opportunities, and freestanding stores play a bigger role. It is just another component of distribution we can deploy in a market,” Urban Decay CEO Tim Warner told Women's Wear Daily. The brand currently achieves 20-25% of its annual sales overseas.
