I don't usually purchase many cosmetics i.e. make-up items like foundation but I do love things like lipstick and nail varnish- and Beauty Queen Cosmetics offers a range of beauty products and hair products. I normally go to Beauty Queen on Soho Road for lipstick and nail polish, especially as they sell brands like Sleek which has only just started appearing in a couple of the mainstream cosmetic shops. For black women, it's sometimes really difficult to get beauty products for your skin or lipsticks that stand out on your complexion. This store is always pretty busy; it's the only one on Soho Road. One slight criticism I would say is that sometimes the staff can be a little too in your face, trying to get you to buy products. I wish sometimes they'd just give you some time to have a look in peace and then you'd have a better idea of what you want. When I went in the store last week, I ended up walking out and didn't buy anything because I felt too pressured.

If you're looking for hair pieces, these guys have the largest range of colours I have come across…read moreso you're likely to find a match to your shade. It's virtually impossible to buy hair removal wax tubs from the High Street stores but I found it here for just £5! And they have a choice between lavender, aloe vera and pink wax. I also found that St Ives face scrub (which is the guru of my skincare regime!) is a lot cheaper here than elsewhere. They have a random selection of cheap cosmetics that tend to be in retro shades - Pat Butcher from Eastenders comes to mind! Although some of their eye-shadows and nail varnishes are interesting because bright colours are trending. Oddly enough, towards the back of the shop there is a post office so you can get your postal needs as well as grooming products under one roof!

The number of hair extensions, wigs and gels here is extraordinary. This is more of a ladies shop however there are some hair products in here specifically for men. There are also deodorants you can purchase and the prices of products I have to say are definitely affordable. If you are looking for variety in hair extensions and wigs, this is the place to visit in my view. Although this is a big shop, the passageways here are very narrow and there were times where I struggled to get past fellow customers. Considering this is a shop that specialises in cosmetics and is targeted at predominately females, I was surprised to see the majority of staff working here are male. But despite this they do know their stuff. Customer service is second to none and they will help you out.
