London's Best Spas, Salons, and Shops (Chosen by Those in the Know)

"London girls definitely have their own aesthetic, preferring matte, highly pigmented lips, smoky eyes, luminous skin, and nail art. 

London girls love music. They always dress up and make a special effort with their makeup when going to a gig. I love catching some music at the Bush Empire or the Roundhouse in Camden. 

London is full of inspiration, but my favorite way to find inspiration is going out! I love watching girls spilling out of the pubs on a Friday eve in Soho — John Snow or Experimental Cocktail Club are great little finds. In East London, I like George & Dragon."
