Lookfantastic will bring a two-day Christmas gifting pop-up to Soho on 29 and 30 September, continuing its run of London beauty events.

The World of Unexpected Gifting will take over Vinyl Factory on Marshall Street, with spaces dedicated to skincare, fragrance, makeup and haircare.

Lookfantastic says its wider range includes more than 22,000 products across more than 660 brands. For the pop-up, it has assembled curated edits designed to help visitors find presents beyond their Christmas lists.

Clarins, which recently launched on Lookfantastic, will feature in The Skin Library, where visitors can receive expert-led skincare recommendations. The Scent Train will present an edit of classic and newer fragrances for shoppers looking beyond familiar favourites.

At The Bakery, Nars will offer personalised festive eye looks, alongside its holiday collection and latest launches. Visitors can also purchase a beauty meal deal, including an iced coffee, a Reemie’s mini bite and a Nars sample.

Elsewhere, The Hair Studio will offer dry styling from Kérastase and ghd, alongside product advice. Appointments will be available on a first-come, first-served basis, subject to availability.

Visitors can also create a £15 box at the LF Iconic Beauty Pick ’n’ Mix, choosing six minis from a selection of nine. Meanwhile, the first 100 guests to spend at least £50 on the day will receive an exclusive beauty gift.

The event continues Lookfantastic’s run of themed pop-ups in London. The retailer previously launched The Fresh Cycle, a laundrette-themed customer experience held on 3 September as part of its AW26 New Season campaign.

It also hosted a What the SPF?! pop-up in May, focused on sun protection and featuring products from a range of brands, including Beauty of Joseon, Clinique, La Roche-Posay and Heliocare.

The pop-ups sit alongside Lookfantastic’s standalone stores in Altrincham and Bristol. Its first store opened in Altrincham in 2024, followed by a Bristol site at Cabot Circus in February 2026, designed around product discovery and expert services.
