Beauty News: London

Glossier London pop-up

Glossier’s newest temporary retail experience, aka the Glossier London pop-up, is opening at 13 Floral Street, Covent Garden and is going to be inspired by the great British social club.

Think an explosion of floral fabrics on the walls, floors and doors, hidden entranceways and secret passages.

There’s also a co-ordinating flower-powered umbrella (the news of our terrible British weather reaches far and wide!).

Plus, Glossier will donate £5 to the Young Women’s Trust, a charity that fights for gender equality and helps struggling young women gain confidence and find work.

There’s also a ‘ Glossier London skyline’ a full-scale scale installation (cameras at the ready) plus all of their iconic and cult beauty products to play with – colour match for the ‘Stretch’ concealer, sniff test the ‘You’ and depart with fluffy ‘Boy Brows’! Yes please!

Glossier London will open its doors on Wednesday 20th November at 10:00 AM and runs through until Sunday, February 9th 2020.
