    What better way to maximise your lunch break than with a luxury express beauty treatment?

    We totally get how hard it can be to eat your lunch in peace without the constant ding of emails popping up. The new ‘Selfridges says WORK IT!’ campaign promotes an improved work-life balance, and with its pop-up event at the Selfridges Beauty Hall in London Oxford Street, you have an excuse to get away from your desk and reclaim your lunch break. The best thing about it? You’ll go from looking office geek to chic all in under an hour. The office hottie might even notice that full-power pout you’re suddenly sporting.

    The Big Beauty Lunch Breaks, running from 30th April between 12-3pm every Thursday, offers express beauty experiences from some of our favourite brands, such as Charlotte Tilbury, Sisley, Chanel, Illamasqua, Clinique and a bunch more. With many of the drop-in treatments being under 15-minutes, you’ll have time to spare to go on a little shopping spree after (hey, that’s enough to convince us).

    You’ll be spoilt for choice when it comes to treatments, from Kiehls’ stress-reducing treatment, to a boardroom-to-bar YSL 5-minute Flash Makeover. There’s something for everyone. You’ll go back to your desk feeling refreshed, revitalised and revamped.

    We know lunch breaks can’t all be about beauty treatments (if only), and with all the distraction from the buzz of the Beauty Hall, we still need to find time to eat. Don’t worry; Selfridges have it all thought out – you can take away a complimentary healthy lunch box to indulge in at your desk*.

    Be sure to get yourselves down there quickly – it’s only running for 6 weeks! Follow the campaign @selfridges #SelfridgesXWorkIt
