This edition of Shop Talk will be about a relatively new store that has me basically mesmerized - enough to have me going back to spend money twice in one week. My gripe with Jamaica is that we have such a small selection of beauty products that is rarely consistent and even more rarely up to date. Thankfully, someone heard my plea and opened "The Beauty Spot" a quaint little store located on Brompton Avenue (behind Spartan Gym).
They basically have everything - brushes to skin care to makeup to nail polish. Their feature brand is Maybelline but they also sell Mac, Urban Decay, Nars, Sleek, Inglot, Milani, Too Faced, Iman, Mary Kay, OCC, BH Cosmetics and many more. If you are searching for new products on the market this is where you can find it.
I picked up a couple nail polishes, a duo fibre blush brush, replaced my black kohl liner and picked up a coloured liquid liner. I got a complimentary makeup bag with an attached mirror inside and I am super happy with the quality and the presentation of the products.
A couple things I am lusting after that are there are the Urban Decay Naked palette, a couple shadows from Inglot, the OCC lip tars (*squeal*), a Nars blush and a Brush set. I'm sure that list will have additions pretty soon because they add new stock pretty often.
The customer service at the Beauty Spot is unrivaled. When you walk in you are greeted with a smile and a warm welcome, parking is secure and unlike a certain store the sales clerk doesn't remind you of a pushy car salesman. I wasn't at all intimidated by her but it felt like I was chatting with a girlfriend about makeup. She asked me what I liked and what I had tried, she even took a few suggestions I had for products as well as told me what she had tried out and what worked for her. Perfect balance of knowledgeable and open to learning more.
They open Monday to Saturday and are located in Suite #2 of the Spartan Wellness Centre at 1 Brompton Road Kingston 5. You can call them at 63105507/288-2194. I am not affiliated with them nor am I sponsored by them I am just a big fan because I like what they're doing and I want to support them.
You can follow them on Facebook here. They are having a contest to search for the next Maybelline make up artist to be selected right out of our little island. Get excited! lol. But for real, pass by and check it out. You won't be disappointed.
They were nice enough to let me snap some quick pictures. Check them out below.
Till later,
