((this review is only for the Clinque Counter))
The last time I bought Clinque was when I was in high school and just for the gift with purchase, which is still pretty cool.only a $25 purchase (usually just one item)
The girl there (blonde, ponytail, sorry I forgot your name!) was super friendly and patient and a good sales lady. Not pushy, but helped me decide. I came there to buy a toner and mascara, but walked out with much more. She also gave me 2 Gifts (I guess, since I spent at least 4 times the minimum amount) and tons of gifts that I don't need to go back until the stuff I bought runs out.
