@heartsmyface @Kim888 It seems like it got trampled major... who knows what happened.. but the poor eyeshadow palette.. lol. toasted for sure. 

Yeah, it would suck major if the customer service was being grouchy.. but honestly, they have been so sweet about it. If the 3rd ones a fail, then I might have to make my way to the store to purchase it instead of having it sent to me. 

[Kim888]

That’s exactly what it looks like! Looks it it got stuck in a door - that sucks 😞

[Tamara76]

Heartbreaking!   @kromance

Ugh - Did you see this, @ElleElleG? 😥

[ElleElleG]

Yikes! I had not seen this, thanks for the tag @Tamara76 !!

I completely understand your frustrations @kromance last week I received 3 packages and each one contained a damaged eyeshadow palette 😣.  It makes me second guess ordering powder products as I'm not sure if the issue is with the lack of interior protection or mishandling during the shipping process.

[kromance]

I agree with you @ElleElleG. It was mostly the handling process of the package. Just terrible. When the delivery guy handed it to me, I gasped out loud!  wtf is this??? lol... 

I'm just relieved that my hourglass ambient highlighting palette made it in one piece last week... especially had been worried about that one because the powders are so incredibly soft.  When I was on the phone with customer service, I made the rep put in a note for extra packaging material and an extra sticker on the side that said HANDLE WITH CARE.  . . Now we wait... 

[Beadshopgirl]

I think I found the people who handled your package @kromance.

Dang, that’s pretty bad! Sorry you haven’t had luck getting one that’s been fully in tact. Hopefully the replacement to your replacement will be packaged better! ❤️

When your order arrives broken, so you return it & reorder... And the second arrives broken as well *sigh*

[gonerogue]

Aw, that stinks! What did you order? Any way you can get the item in store so that you won’t have to deal with shipping?

[ohheyitscindyk]

@gonerogue Sorry I just saw this! It was the Colourpop Highlighter Trio, I've never tried their highlighters before & now that they're sold at Sephora, I thought this was a good time to finally do so. I can't get it in store, so I'll have to reorder a second time, but I haven't decided if I will or not. I'm afraid they'll arrive broken again lol. But third time's the charm, right?

[gonerogue]

@ohheyitscindyk Well.... I guess it won’t hurt to try a third time lol but that sucks! I didn’t know the colourpop highlights were so sensitive. Sending you good vibes so you can get a non-damaged package this time! 👌🏻

[ohheyitscindyk]

@gonerogue Me neither! I don't think I've ever had to reorder something a second time before. That's true, I guess it couldn't hurt. Haha thanks!

Oh no! That really is the worst @ohheyitscindyk! 😞

That you can’t book a reservation for lessons at Sephora because you don’t live near the locations that do the lessons 😡

When you are tweezing/ cleaning up your eyebrows and you tweeze that 1 hair thinking it will make your brows perfect but instead it messes them up and you have to fix them. ugh

[Melissa136]

Couldn't agree more! Right now, my issue is that the hairs that need to be plucked are sharp(?) and thick, but I can't get a good grip on them so they break! Ingrown brow hairs are a pain!

[veronika23]

Aw man that is the worst! 😞

[Kim888]

That is the worst!!! It’s always like I bet if I pluck this one hair it’ll look great - but no instead here’s a random bald patch

[Lazybeautybeast]

Yep! it happened to me last weekend. Luckily, it wasn't too bad. Thank god for brow pencils/products!

[Samtian]

When you don't fully read what you are using...I was recently on a trip and grabbed a bunch of samples to use. One was...oh man I am drawing a blank on the brand. But anyways it was a face wipe that said glow on it. I naturally assumed it meant that beautiful fresh dewy faced glow. So I use it, I don't use it where my glasses go or close to my hair line because I don't want to wash stuff out of my hair lol...I read the back it says wash hands after...ok weird but whatever.

....the next day...I look in the mirror...the "glow" was SELF TANNER!!! And since I didnt use it everywhere it was so sad and pathetic of me. Thankfully my wig, hat, and glasses covered the pale parts up lol. 

[heartsmyface]

Hahaha, i’m Sorry but that’s kinda hilarious!  

I’ve put soap on my hands in stores as hand cream before.   My brain can’t compute there being testers for soap in stores and automatically assumes everything is a gel or moisturizing cream:D @Samtian
