CW Beauty Address Book: Bespoke Services in London

There’s one common theme for beauty trends in 2019 – that they’re not quite so common. In fact, the products you’ll be stockpiling will be entirely unique to you. Couture creations in the beauty world are not necessarily new but before they were eye-wateringly expensive. After all, even the most dedicated follower of fragrances would baulk at a £20,000 bill for a bottle of something smelly, (unless of course, you’re J-Lo). However, the latest options are thankfully much more affordable, and also quick and efficient, meaning you can meet your perfect match and leave together in around an hour or less. So, if you’re looking for a specific lipstick shade to go with that party gown? You got it. Don’t want to smell like the person sat next to you on the Tube? Then L’Eau and behold, there’s a company that will create something that’s just so you. Having trouble nailing that perfect foundation shade? Then there’s a no-brainer skin-matching service to find your specific tone and formula. Read on to find the best made-to-order beauty in London.
