Earth Hairdressing & AOFM


Wednesday. 'Hump Day'. The day that is far enough into the week that everyone is stressed, yet not far enough for people to be realistically looking forward to the weekend. Last Wednesday I found the perfect solution to this mid-week stress at Earth Hairdressing's makeover event with the Academy of Freelance Makeup (AOFM). Selected press were invited to Earth's Oxford Circus salon to sample their new make-over service with assistance from students at AOFM. The results were then photographed by professional makeover photographer Takazumi Uemura.

Makeup was applied by both students of AOFM and Earth's talented staff

The makeover includes hair consultation and styling

This new service, lasting 90 minutes and costing from £50, includes: hair consultation and styling; professional makeup application; a photo-shoot and review of the photos.

While I was there, I decided to have a good look around upstairs and found the lavishly decorated and luxurious VIP room which would certainly turn an already fantastic time at Earth into something even better, along with the room used for Earth's new waxing service.

Earth's makeovers are a great way to treat yourself and de-stress or why not go along with a few friends for make the most of the experience.

Shawish Jewellery Event - 'The World's First Diamond Ring'



Last week I was invited to the launch event of 'The World's First Diamond Ring' by Shawish Jewellery. The event, hosted by the fabulous Forward PR at Grosvenor Place's Il Bottaccio, was one not to be missed, with over 350 members of the press, buyers, and VIPs turning up for a presentation on the concept and also a charity auction.

The patented concept is that the entire ring shall be carved out of a diamond - a world first! - and at 150 carats it shall cost about £43 million!

Also on show were many of Shawish's other great designs for people to browse.

Shawish of Geneva kindly donated two pieces from their collection to a charity auction to raise money for the North Africa Development Foundation. The first piece up for auction was a pink gold bracelet valued at £1400. After the winning bidder backed out the first time, the bracelet finally went for £1150.
