Skinlife Lisbon

Beauty boutique

""Skinlife" in Lisbon is a unique beauty & perfume boutique right in the heart of Chiado. This shop has passed my very own "mother-in-law" test..."

Skinlife is a unique beauty boutique right in the heart of Chiado. Do not come here if you are looking for your "average" mainstream perfume brand. The store only sells exclusive beauty product labels, primarily perfumes and skin products. 

The store opened in 2011 and its interior is very beautiful and nicely decorated. It's owned by 2 Dutch guys, Dennis and Patrick. The service is perfect and they really help you pick something special and unique. With their help I even passed the "mother-in-law test" and managed to offer my wife's mother something special for Christmas.

Although the brands are exclusive (I have to confess that I hardly knew any), the prices are quite acceptable.

Definitely worth a visit.
