Live reporting from the John Lewis event - Very hot in here, intense violin music. Very busy. Neom stand has a ring toss game and are promoting 2 new summery scents, I like the grapefruit one. Music has changed, thank the lord. I'm now at the Dermalogica stand waiting to play another game, one of those claw/grabber games you get in arcades and piers. I am not good at these games, so leaving empty handed unsurprisingly. Really is sweltering down here. Played another game mixing up microfoliant stuff, this feels a bit bizarre, I'm not sure what I thought this event was anyway. but this seems to be very game oriented. Now I'm at chantecaille waiting for a spin to win game. Won a makeover in store 🙄 No thanks! Was hoping for the free gift. 😂 Actually sad about that one, I love Chantecaille. There's another spin to win thing at Charlotte Tilbury. Quick stop at the Killian Paris bar for a mini cocktail, called Good Girl Gone Bad. It's delicious, and they've given me a mini Angel's share sample. Best part is the ice cube in the drink. Now in the queue for the CT Spin to win, looks like it's rigged because no one has lost. Ah, the prize is another makeover in store. Not my thing. Quick demo of a Dyson hair thing, now I'm at the Aveda stand - another ring toss. John Lewis make you work for your samples. I don't think I can bothered to queue again tbh. Although they have a little camera thing at aveda to point at your scalp, maybe it can tell me why my hair is so rubbish. Hmm, according to aveda my hair is fine. The scalp photo was ick, has triggered trypophobia. Anyway, it's all over, lots of queuing, no time to get the free drink but everyone is getting their goodie bag as they go so that's really the best bit. Spoilers for anyone going - A quick scan and there's a trinny lip to cheek, benefit mini mascara, neon magnesium body butter mini, full size Clarins body scrub, tiny ceo Sunday Riley cream, chantecaille lip product in a sadly grim shade (probably lovely if you have warm skin tone and pale-ish lips), laura Mercier eye shadow stick, dr jart sheet mask, rodial sheet mask, mini Guerlain florabloom, sculpted by Aimee cloud cream mini and a Dyson hairbrush. A nice bag, not much in there I'll actually use though
