Guava & Gold
After a successful career as a barrister for over 25 years, Clare Price set out to fulfil a dream by launching Guava & Gold just over a year ago. Her goal was to create an elegant capsule collection of cruelty-free bath and body products which would provide customers with an everyday sanctuary. The whole range takes customers from mundane reality to the most exotic corners of the world, through the use of luxuriously scented blends of distinctive fruit and flowers, including delicious guava and cherimoya, fragrant pink magnolia, white floral facets of tuberose, sweet vanilla orchid and enchanting orange and plum blossom.
Guava & Gold is proud to be a British- born brand which has worked with a leading international fine fragrance house to create unique, exquisite perfumes and has then blended those with gorgeously scented natural oils and vibrant colours to build a sensory experience in a bottle. Its products encourage you to live in the present and enjoy the moment, a philosophy that its customers buy into with confidence, trust and belief.
Hero product: Coco & Cherimoya shampoo, £22 , and conditioner, £22
Sports HAI
The best products always begin with a lightbulb moment. Grace de Alvaro’s came as she took part in her first ever triathlon. As she peeled off her wetsuit in the bike transition station, she realised that her make-up, carefully applied that morning, was now smudged and irritating her skin. She felt strong and empowered – but she looked like a drowned rat.
Grace set about producing a range of hard- working, multi-tasking products that would be fit for purpose as well as offering the highest quality. The Sports HAI capsule sports collection now includes an eye shadow and liner, a mascara that is resistant to water, chlorine and sea salt, a combined moisturiser and balm stick, a 2-in-1 lip transformer, a ‘Glow & Go’ bronzer and a nourishing hair cleanser. Everything is designed to be applied quickly and withstand rigorous activity.
Amanda Harrington London
Amanda Harrington London was built on the premise that healthy skin tans best with its skilful formulation: where cosmeceutical skincare meets sunless tan. Challenging previous conceptions around ‘tacky tanning’ and unrealistic, orange results, the brand has launched to rave reviews for its modern, natural approach to tanning. It is designed to work with all skin tones and diversities, enhancing the skin’s natural tone for a realistic glow all year round. ‘I love the boost in confidence that a tan can give,’ says founder, Amanda Harrington.
Hero product: New Skin Body Advanced Glycolic Body Scrub, £22
Salon 64
Powered by an incredible team of talented and inventive hair stylists, Salon 64 is a beauty destination and social space nestled in the heart of Soho. The space was inspired by the social salons where women gathered, chatted and debated in the 17th and 18th centuries – its founder, Ricky Walters, thought it was high time the concept was revived.
At the front of the salon is the coffee bar where clients can watch the world go by over a flat white or use the jewellery box mirrors to touch up their hair and make-up before an event or meeting.
Towards the back and downstairs, fire pits run through the centre of a sleekly customised marble unit incorporating lift-up work stations with mirrors and charge points. This is also where hair is cut, coloured and styled. The very private wash areas, meanwhile, are concealed behind wooden doors, with one entry for the client and a second for the stylist. For total privacy, however, clients are invited to book their own deluxe treatment room.
Hero product: Blow dry, from £55
Charlotte Tilbury
British make-up artist Charlotte Tilbury MBE, one of the most influential makeup artists of her generation, launched her eponymous makeup line in 2013, and the rest is history.

Boundary-breaking brand firsts so far have included the augmented reality ‘Magic Mirror’ to the first ever Virtual Reality perfume experience starring Kate Moss. Her products represent the ultimate in British glamour.

His company received Queen Alexandra’s Royal Warrant one year after his death in 1902. Over the ensuing 145 years, Penhaligon’s received two more Royal Warrants – one from HRH The Duke of Edinburgh (1956) and another from HRH The Prince of Wales (1988).

DR Harris
In the year 1790, Europe was ablaze with revolutionary fervour. In Paris, the revolutionaries, having overthrown the old order, were launching a brave new world of liberté, égalité, fraternité. In London, two cousins, Henry Harris, a surgeon, and Daniel Rotely Harris, a pharmacist, set up shop on the corner of St James’s Street and King Street. They dispensed medicines and blended toilet waters, English flower extracts and colognes for the gentry of St James’s, products whose matchless scents far outlived the rhetoric, fire and brimstone of the French Revolution. D.R. Harris may have been on St James’s Street in London for over 225 years but it is always looking to the wider world and the future for inspiration.
