Lotte Storewide Sale

Overview

One of the redeeming aspects of spending time in an airport is the lure of duty-free shopping. But given how rushed the airport experience can often be, there's not always time to browse the aisles when you've got one eye on the time. Sydney shoppers can take the stress out of the experience at the impressive CBD outpost of Lotte, the second-largest duty-free retailer in the world, where travellers can shop and browse at their leisure while taking advantage of the duty-free offers.

Located on the corner of Pitt and Market streets, in the heart of Sydney's retail precinct, the three-level boutique is home to an array of brands never before seen in Australian travel retail. There's international favourites such as Pola, Vida Glow, Cosme Decorte, Grown Alchemist and Le Labo available alongside other much-loved beauty brands like Estée Lauder, Shiseido, SK-II, Gucci Beauty, Jo Malone and more.

This Thursday, September 8, Lotte's flagship Sydney store will offer 20% off storewide (although duty free limits do apply and the offer excludes Omega, La Prairie, Qeelin). Plus, if you sign up to Lotte's email distribution list, you'll go into the draw to win a luxe door prize that includes products from SK-II, Le Labo, Pola, Sulwhasoo and Vida Glow. The only catch? You'll need an international flight ticket to purchase the international brands, but don't need one to purchase products by Australian brands.

Come for the bargains but stay for the world-class retail experience. The three-storey space, the work of leading Australian interior design company Bates Smart, features a concierge, a cellar door (pictured above) and state-of-the-art technology that ensures a seamless shopping experience — and one you won't have to cut short to catch a flight.

The Lotte Storewide Sale takes place from 10am to 9pm on Thursday, September 8. For more information, head to the website.
