The London Beauty Shopping Guide Part II: Space NK



Space NK apothecary has been around since 1993 but I am very embarrassed to say that I have only properly started shopping (or should I say exploring?) in there since I began this beauty blog which was back in April this year.  Getting to know Space NK also means that I have established a serious 'Wish List', I dream of one day I'll slowly buy out ALL the products from the shop - that's me dream-talking!

Let me tell you ladies and gentlemen, there is no turning back once you entered Space NK!  Seriously it has swiftly climbed up to my top favourite places to shop for beauty products.

The sizes of Space NK shops vary but they stock more or less the same range of products, from skincare to beauty products, from west to east.  Space NK sources the most special and unique brands of all beauty products.  It has taught me into brands which I wasn't as familiar with before such as hourglass, Kevyn Aucoin, Chantecaille and By Terry; the list goes on......  If you can find them in Space NK you are almost guaranteed they are good and worth a try.  Space NK has also made me become more interested in beauty products.

I am not paid by Space NK to write this blog, I geniuely think that Space NK is a shop not to be missed.

These days you will definitely find me wandering into a Space NK shop almost every time when I go shopping.  It's a dangerous zone but I'm willing to surrender.  It is a self-indulgence experience more than anything else - better than eating chocolate I think.

Space NK, to me can become the most significant representative of beauty specialist in the UK and I think there is no doubt about that.  You are guaranteed to find a product that would wow and suit you when you visit Space NK.  

There is just something about it that I cannot resist.

Not only have I sorted out my identity as a beauty blogger, I have also gained another identity as a loyal Space NK customer/ fan with getting myself an 'N.dulge' card.  A point-reward system, every time when you spend in Space NK, either shops or online you gain one point for every £1 you spend.  Once you have accumulated 100 points you are rewarded with £5 to spend instantly.  You can call it a trap but I see it in a totally different way - it's a reward for loyal fans like us to explore in Space NK the next time when we shop there.


Did you also know about Spa NK?  Spa NK offers a range of body, facial, manicure and pedicure treatments at their store in Notting Hill.  This will definitely make it to one of my wish list items!

Are you a fan of Space NK already?  Perhaps next time when you visit London, you should immerse into Space NK to get a feel of what I'm talking about!

There are 64 Space NK stores in the UK and 21 Space NK apothecaries in the US - 6 free-standing and 15 shop-within-shops in selected Bloomingdale's.  They also offer international deliveries to European Countries and the Rest of the World. (Source of data from Space NK website).
