About Dermstore
Dermstore is an American online retailer of prestige skincare, which THG bought on 2 February 2021 and runs as the US arm of its beauty business. In 2025 it partnered with the payments company Flex so that customers could pay with Health Savings Account and Flexible Spending Account funds, which THG says made it one of the first major US beauty sites to accept them. THG credits the new payment methods with its improving sales through the second half of 2025.
