Environmentally conscious hair and make-up brand with 'lifestyle' stores like this one in High Holborn - where there's even a herb garden on the roof terrace. Get your cut and colour done as well as shopping for ultra-chic, ultra-hip cosmetics with colours to die for. A must-have for the cosmetics connoisseur concerned about the environment and precisely what percentage of recycled plastic their bottles of lotions come in. Ingredients are largely aromatherapy and products smell divine as a result. For a treat you can book a massage in the vaulted basement, very grounding - both spiritually and literally. Or try a session with a make-up artist; approximately £25 for half an hour or £50 for an hour and a half (the cost is redeemable against products). Friendly and helpful staff.
