Beauty Mart, the ultimate shopping experience

A few weeks back, I visited the latest craze to hit Harvey Nichols - their Beauty Mart. Of course, we all know their long established glamorous beauty floor that hits you as soon as you enter their doors, but this is something completely new.

A few floors up and you come across lots of make up. Not your Chanels, nor your Clinques, but a menagerie of really quite good makes, with plenty of testers to try there and then. I really fell in love with the fun element of this little pop up shop - after chatting to the very helpful assistant for some time, she encouraged me to try some of the nail varnishes, open up tester bottles and just generally really enjoy the make up boutique. It felt like someones make up collection rather than a shop, and this personal element made the afternoon care-free and all about discoveries of great new brands. Another big plus of the shop is the fact that the prices are incredibly reasonable, so one can have the 'Harvey Nicks' experience, without the Harvey Nicks expenditure. Do go and visit  - and make the most of shopping for make up!
