@moxiepancakes  are you in Canada?

[txcatx]

Oh, I had no idea the rewards work differently in Canada! Just saw your post on another thread.

The $25/20/15 Sephora codes that were sent this morning? I was able to add a promo code.

[patronbleu]

Are you in the US? In the US they work like gift cards and you can add a deluxe perk too. In canada, you can't to my knowledge.

I haven't had a pimple on my face for so long ... 5 yrs, 10 yrs.. I can't recall. The day I need to go take my passport picture, bam, a giant zit showed up on my cheek. Sigh!

[veronika23]

@blackkitty2014  ugh sorry. 😞 It's always like that isn't it.

First time visiting the Peeves lounge but need to vent, so here it goes...

Saw the ABH reward and googled swatches to see what it looks like &came across this image

Yes....the color on the right is:

I can't possibly be the only that finds this incredibly offensive & insensitive.  ARGHHHH!!!  

I mean, who's the jerk that thought this would be a cool name over at JS Cos?  Like...seriously!?!?

[Libellules]

JS is the worst. Period.

@ZombieMetroAnt

He is the worst. 😞

I completely lost respect for him after the whole KVD drama, but i was never too fond of him to begin with. There is nothing witty or edgy about violence.

@ZombieMetroAnt

A year or more ago I had remarked on this on BT.  It seems "trying too hard" and desperate to be cool and edgy, when you are not.

There was a member here (that worked in a shelter - Xchanel or something) who even wrote to the owner about how unwise this name was.  Especially since women were the customer base,  and so many have had such difficult pasts.

Apparently she got a foul response back.  

This is all so distasteful and obnoxious, I need a shower now.

[mishanyc]

I was just thinking he tries too hard to be edgy and controversial.  There's a ton of companies out there who value what their consumers have to say that's why I spend my money elsewhere.

Spoiler

I'm glad it was discussed before! This really pi**ed me off.  It's a serious matter that still plagues our society today.

I felt bad after posting because I thought the subject was perhaps a bit too dark for our awesome board, but conversation is good.  

Thanks for your response!!

[prettyinpa]

Eeew, how sick. You wonder how someone like that can wake up in the AM and face themselves?

[Samtian]

@prettyinpa Have you seen all the stuff he has? He has no problem waking up, he doesn't face himself. I don't think he has a soul. 

[unfungirl]

@Samtian yes! my thoughts exactly. there's no way he has a soul based on the way he treats people. i boycotted his brand and never looked back, but i can't help being disgusted by him anyway.

[prettyinpa]

@Samtian- I don't check out his site or pay any attention to him. If no one pays attention to him, hopefully he will disappear like a vampire in sunlight!

[Seymore3]

Not an appropriate name for a lipstick in my opinion, who would think this was ok.

[angel7594]

I agree @ZombieMetroAnt, that shade name is definitely offensive. 😞
