An absolute hidden gem – unforgettable experience
I used a Virgin Experience gift voucher for a makeup masterclass at MG Skincare, and honestly… WOW!!! From start to finish, the whole experience was exceptional.
Before the makeup masterclass even began, Manuel talked us through skincare properly – skin types, how products work, and why. We got to try the products, and I completely fell in love with their oil facial cleanser (I never thought I’d use an oil cleanser, but the scent alone is heaven). I also bought a beautiful facial exfoliator and couldn’t be happier. The products are gorgeous, but what really stands out is the knowledge behind them.
Manuel and Sylvio are just the warmest, loveliest people. So knowledgeable, welcoming, and genuine – never cold, never salesy. You immediately feel relaxed and cared for, which makes such a difference. It honestly felt like being welcomed into someone’s home rather than a “professional” clinic.
The makeup masterclass itself was brilliant. I went with a friend who volunteered to be the model, and the makeup artist was incredible – friendly, experienced, and explaining everything step by step as she created the most beautiful smoky eye. It was informative, fun, and confidence-boosting.
MG Skincare feels like one of those rare, special places you almost want to keep secret. Based in Shad Thames near London Bridge, it’s an absolute gem. I couldn’t recommend Manuel, Sylvia, their products, or the whole experience highly enough. Thank you for such a wonderful day – I’ll definitely be back (as often as possible!).
