I am a big fan of Fresh products. Its is pricey but it is well worth every penny. I came here…read morerecently when they had the special deal on facials. It was basically free as I was able to redeem the price of the service towards any products in the store. The facial itself was very relaxing. My only caveat to possible customers is that they only do a holistic facial which means they dont do extractions of facial blemishes (ie white and black heads). Overall, I would go back here again to buy Fresh products while living in London.

Have you ever noticed that once the bottle says for men, the man in your life will suddenly feel that its ok to use. They are great little gifts and things that men won't buy for themselves, but will use if you buy it for them. Fresh has great products for men and women for the care and maitiance of their face. It is never too early to start a skin care regime to ward off those wrinkles for men and women. They have candles, lotions, cleansers, makeup, and fragrances. It is a lovely light and not too smelly environment (as many scented shops tend to be).

This is a large Boots store at Westfield London that stands out within the shopping centre, it has…read morethe benefit of being open late in the evenings, generally around 10 pm, that includes the Pharmacy meaning it is useful to grab medication and essentials later in the evening. The store looks good and is fairly clean, it has a nice selection of many of the items you would expect to find in the Boots, including beauty, cosmetics, toiletries, and a selection of over the counter and prescribed medications. It also has an Opticians which is pretty handy. It would be nice if they had more staffed counters, they really seem to be pushing self-service too, not great for the elderly! 4*

Odd behaviour from the waxer, inappropriate touching when I had a bikini wax done. Unfortunately it…read morewas my first wax so i was unaware that it was irregular.

The Shoreditch Spa at 167 Brick Lane is an absolute must when you are in the area. Since 2014, this…read moreboutique spa has offered a unique blend of relaxation, professionalism, and atmosphere that makes every visit memorable. The location is perfect, in the heart of Shoreditch, and the walk through the lively and historic Brick Lane neighborhood is a delight before or after your treatment. From the moment you arrive, you are welcomed into a calm, stylish space where water and tea are offered, and only whispering voices are heard. The atmosphere immediately puts you at ease. Whether you want a social manicure or pedicure in one of the relaxing armchairs on the ground floor, complete with an entertainment tablet and even a glass of bubbly, or you prefer peace and tranquillity with a facial or massage in the quiet treatment rooms downstairs, the Shoreditch Spa caters beautifully to both experiences. I have personally enjoyed several treatments here, and I highly recommend requesting Myriam or Timandra. Timandra provided me with a manicure and pedicure using the electric foot file, and the results were flawless--my hands and feet felt renewed, cared for, and polished to perfection. On another visit, Myriam delivered an exceptional Swedish massage. She worked with precision and great depth, easing a stubborn knot in my right shoulder. As someone with double knee and hip replacements, and scar tissue, I was impressed by how attentive and on target she was, tailoring the massage to my exact needs while still ensuring full relaxation. The spa offers a wide range of treatments for both men and women, using only high-quality products such as Dermalogica, Aromatherapy Associates, and OPI. They are also proud to offer the HydraFacial experience, ensuring there is something for everyone, whether your goal is relaxation, rejuvenation, or results-driven skincare. The therapists are true professionals, trained to the highest standards, and they take the time to provide personalised treatments that feel indulgent and restorative. Pricing is in line with other quality London spas, and for the level of service and expertise you receive, it represents excellent value. The building itself is stylish and welcoming, and every detail--from booking to treatment to leaving--flows smoothly and professionally. The Shoreditch Spa is more than just a place to pamper yourself; it is a sanctuary in the heart of East London. I cannot recommend it highly enough. Book your appointment today, and when you do, ask for Myriam or Timandra to ensure an extraordinary experience.
