Aesop's Opera Gift Kits
The great thing about going to an Aesop store is that even if you don't buy a product, you feel more beautiful anyway. Regardless of which store you visit it's tastefully designed and has a satisfying rather than overwhelming number of products.
The latest addition to the range is a series of four opera gift kits: two uni-sex, one for women and one for men. Looking at the Right Angle staff right now it's hard to accept that we should be making any recommendations on beauty products. We're all crazy eyed, straggly haired and greasy in the lead up to Rooftop Cinema. And there are ominous undertones of an intense party season up ahead, which does not bode well for health or beauty.
But the packaging alone is enough to warrant buying these, let alone the products inside, which might just have what it takes to bring us back from the brink of physical ruin.
NB: 'The Queen of Spades' contains Remove, Fabulous Face Cleanser, Purifying Exfoliant Paste, Parsley Seed Anti-Oxidant Facial Toner, Oil Free Hydrating Serum, Fabulous Face Oil and it's $150. 'The Barber of Seville' contains Ginger Root Soap Slab, Purifying Facial Exfoliant Paste, Moroccan Neroli Shaving Serum, Oil Free Facial Hydrating Serum and it's $80.

About
TwoThousand is a subcultural guide to Sydney, published daily and fired by email weekly. It is compiled by an amorphous gaggle of Sydney writers, stylists, designers and photographers who all like huddling under that big umbrella we like to call creativity. Without editorial independence TwoThousand has nothing. All editorial you read is featured because it's worth it - not because it's paid for.
