Meet The Beauty Shopping Destination We Love

Korean beauty is huge right now – and for gentle-yet-effective skincare, Westfield London has you covered. Both Moida and Pureseoul are K-beauty havens, where you can bag viral hits like COSRX’s Snail Mucin Essence and Biodance’s Bio-Collagen Real Deep Masks, as well as cutting-edge Medicube gadgets and Beauty Of Joseon’s rice-powered sunscreens. Alternatively, you can’t beat Aesop for a spot of self-care. Whether you’re after nourishing oils or soothing fragrances, these products are guaranteed to bring a sense of calm into your daily rituals. Then there’s Sephora and Boots – home to a multitude of high-street hero brands, so you stock up on all your favourites. 

Westfield London should be your first port of call if your make-up bag is due a refresh. It’s home to some excellent standalone stores like Charlotte Tilbury and M·A·C, both of which are loved by professional artists. Not only can you shop the best quality formulas, but the pros are actually on hand to help you find which shades and formulas are right for you. If you’re looking to treat yourself, head to Space NK, where you can pick up all the hits – think Rare Beauty blushes, Hourglass palettes and new Lisa Eldridge drops. Or, for an affordable option, we really rate Kiko. Known for its rich pigments and playful approach, this is one store to have on your radar when you’re in the mood to experiment. 

Known for its attention to detail, Ukrainian salon So. Shell is perfect for a tip-to-toe treat. Here, you can book in for gels, extensions and even an express manicure if you’re short on time. Now that summer is under way, a restorative pedicure is so needed. Choose from an ever-growing collection of colours, including our current obsession – butter yellow. 

Whether you’re after a glossy blow-dry, seeking a colour refresh or in the mood for a dramatic chop, you’re in safe hands with heritage hair salon TONI&GUY. The salon is open every day, so you can even squeeze in an appointment before or after work. Settle in and let your stylist work their magic – there’s no better feeling than a good hair day. 

Brows frame the face, and if you want yours to look picture-perfect, professional shaping makes all the difference. Blink Brow Bar is our go-to spot and somehow the experts make it a relaxing experience with their deft, precise technique and skin-soothing products. If you have a little extra time on your hands, add on the brow pinching massage – it melts away any tension and leaves you feeling renewed.
