BEAUTY product chain Bodycare is set to shut all its stores for good this weekend - including the one in Irvine's Rivergate.
Administrators said the company was "no longer viable to continue".
Bodycare went into administration earlier this month. The decision to close all 56 remaining stories across the UK was announced on Monday, with the loss of another 444 jobs.
A spokesperson for the administrators said the company would "continue to provide all support to those impacted".

Nick Holloway, joint administrator, said they would "continue to explore options for the company's assets, including the Bodycare brand, and will provide further updates in due course".
The collapse of the firm was blamed on a shortage of stock and the cost of running high street stores.
More than a thousand people had already lost their jobs since the retailer went into administration on September 5.
Bodycare was founded in Lancashire in 1970.
The stores were famed for their bright lighting and window displays. They offered warehouse-style display shelves packed with goods such as lip balm, perfume, false nails and foot cream.
