Entering a B (Never too Busy to Be Beautiful) shop feels to me a bit like being back stage at a Fashion shoot.  Most people who know me understand that an environment like that tends make a simple girl like me a little nervous.  Don’t get me wrong, I have glitter eyeliner in my make-up case, but I tend to be easily intimidated in a shop filled with staff members who could all be models.

The real kicker is that I have found the staff at my local Covent Garden store to be quite approachable, friendly, and willing to help even a girl in trainers pick out tinted moisturizer.

At prices comparable to what I had been spending at Clinique in years past, I have happily purchased cosmetic products that make me feel all warm and fuzzy.  B shops, like their sister stores, are designed for your testing pleasure.  If you happen to be celebrating – or you just have occasion to be pampered – B provides a reasonably priced make-over service that includes a cocktail.  I would recommend this to someone on holiday or planning a special night out.  It would be especially nice prior to a photo shoot!
