| - I like the store itself and the wide array of products and knowledge so I decided to do the full make-up with a $50.00 product purchase. I usually go to MAC for this but wanted to try something different and Sephora sells many products I could try.
My three-star review is based on the make-up application I received with the $50.00 product purchase. The make-up deserves a 2-star review at best.
I asked Sephora how well trained their staff is in application and they assured me the make-up artists receive "extensive" training. I don't know what that means, but based on my application, extensive probably means, watching hours of YouTube videos.
I had an event to got to several weeks back and although my makeup artist was quite nice, she did a poor job on my make up. She did my eyebrows first without any foundation on my face and I could immediately tell by the way her hand was moving to draw the line that it wasn't going to be good. The line she drew alone my brow line was very thick and the color was inconsistent. It looked like as if she had a shaky hand while drawing it. After my eyebrows, she then applied eyeshadow, eyeliner, etc... It looked okay but not well-blended. She then applied my lashes, which actually weren't glued on all the way on one corner of my eyelid. After the eye make-up she applied foundation and some concealer. She did not apply any powder as she said the foundation she used sets itself -- um okay. I told her I liked full-coverage, but my makeup job looked medium at best.
After she was finished she did my lips which was the best applied make-up she did. When I got home, I noticed my foundation was not blended around my eye area and there was actually areas where there was no foundation whatsoever.
After this experience, I will never go to Sephora again for make-up with a product purchase. MAC make-up artists are by far superior to Sephora so I will continue to got to MAC for the $50.00 product purchase + make-up.
