Realms of You by Glossier

‘Realms of You’ pop-up is inspired by the fact that ‘Glossier You’ famously smells different on everyone. The pop-up guides visitors through a unique multi-sensory experience where they have a chance to sense the fragrance through all five senses.

Glossier’s creative team takes inspiration from ASMR videos that explore how visuals and sounds affect the body and the senses.

In the first room visitors learn more about ‘You’ fragrance and have a chance to try the perfume, the roller ball, the hand cream and the perfume solid which is basically wax-based travel-friendly perfume you can apply to your skin with your finger.

The next room is a dreamy ASMR video experience. Here you will see ASMR video clips with satisfying sounds.

Inside the next room you will find yourself in an Alice in Wonderland-inspired world with moody red lights and small booths with (real life) hands waiting for you. Choose a booth, sit down, and shake the gloved hand peeking through the red velvet curtain to start your journey.

Each booth hosts different personalities – from playful to romantic – portrayed through the red-gloved hands, meaning they provide a unique experience to each visitors.

Once the performance has ended, visitors can purchase exclusive Glossier products from the ‘Ultimate Sensory’ collection, including candle, roller ball, hand balm, eau de perfume, and limited-edition merch, such as beauty bag, mini Glossier microphone or red Glossier pepper grinder.

The experience ends with a distorted red hallway with a selfie mirror and this is where visitors can collect their orders.

Jongga Flavourverse

Take your tastebuds on a wild journey at Jongga Flavourverse immersive pop-up exhibition where you can discover why Jongga Kimchi can be found in every kitchen in South Korea.

The pop-up came into being after a research by Jongga that revealed that 80% of British people consider themselves as ‘adventurous’ when it comes to food, and over 50% said they want to travel more to experience more authentic foods.

Cost-of-living-crisis, however, prevents many from being able to travel, so Jongga decided to bring Seoul to London to give visitors the chance to experience the authentic tastes of South Korea.

The exhibition, that runs from 16 Sep – 8 Oct 2023, is completely free, secure a time slot on Evetbrite. Walk-ins welcome on a first come first serve basis.

NOTE: The pop-up is closed on Mondays!

The experience will take at least 25 minutes, during which you’ll explore different rooms, each offering immersive experiences, take fun selfies, taste Kimchi-infused cocktails and food while getting the chance to play games and win limited-edition merch.

Jongga teamed up with three London restaurants: Seoul Bird, Bad Boy Pizza Society and Darby’s, each taking up a week of residence and serving up indulgent bites using Jongga Kimchi. Expect creamy mac & cheese, Bibim-inspired Kimchi pizza slices, Kimchi slaw buns and more.

If you cannot visit the pop-up, don’t worry! Each restaurant keeps the new dishes on their menu for 20 days after the pop-up ends.

Seoul Bird: 25 Sept – 14 Oct

Bad Boy Pizza Society: 2 Oct – 22 Oct
