First to review? How? Wait, what? That's crazy!…read more Anyway, this is a great stop. I was helped immediately and tried various foundations and powders but ultimately landed on lipstick. The salesperson was so knowledgeable and recommended different products. I was on the fence so I looked at lipsticks. I gravitate towards certain colors and tested them. The salesperson suggested a color that seemed too light and pink but she told me to trust her. Woila I have a new lipstick! People must think they are an information desk because as people deplaned, several stopped to ask questions about immigration or where things were. The clerks were so helpful to everyone even if they weren't looking at their products. I love Mac products and highly recommend them, especially their lipstick. It's the only kind I'll ever use. It's smooth and silky and long lasting. It also doesn't have that weird taste and smell that some others have.

I forgot to get her name but the staff member who helped me out the morning of June 11 was awesome…read more. She alone is 10 stars!!! We had a frustrating cancelled flight the night before and we stayed at the Mercure in the airport. Bad news... my make up went in the checked bag. Should I suck it up and go #nomakeup/ nofilter ??? Sure if I was a better woman I would have , but I don't look like Julia Roberts and I have recently been diagnosed with rosacea ....and I am 51....and the rosacea was flaring up. I woke up early , took a crappy hotel shower with harsh products and stumbled around the terminal with a bad attitude and a red face in search of coffee when I stumbled upon MAC. Screw the coffee - this woman needs make up . Last thing I wanted to do is hang out for 5 hours in the airport with a red blustery face (and adding a cranky husband was not going to help) So wandered into Mac ( my fav) and the staff member working totally changed my morning around. She gave me a light but even coverage and made me feel like a new woman. I bought several things - Not due to a hard sell but due to her explaining what works for my skin I left the store with my head held high and a smile on my face I live on the road either in a suitcase working overseas or a camper in the US so have very little room for " fluff". With MAC I get what I need and it takes up minimum space - And it doesn't shatter when I travel like the cheap stuff . Thank you MAC personnel for making my morning and travels much much better !!!

Skins is the absolute best perfume store in Amsterdam and the place to come for high end brands…read morelike Creed, Nasomatto, By Kilian, MFK, etc. Plus, they carry an ever changing array of niche perfume lines that you would be hard pressed to find anywhere else. The staff are friendly and let you sniff to your hearts' content without hovering. There is a cosmetics/skin care area on the top floor too. Highly recommend!

They have amazing cosmetic brands such as Korres, cowshed, Mario Badescu, and others. You can check all they have on their website.

Keep in mind they do take walk in, I would suggest making an appointment to guarantee you get a spot, since they can get very busy. Keep in mind you can call or book an appointment online. I think booking an appointment online is much easier, instead of calling any of the shops. You can select the day, time, and person of your preference. At this specific location there are 3 different staff members to choose from.

I'm a young American woman of color and had an odd experience here-- I don't know if it was my age,…read moremy accent, my race, or that I didn't speak Dutch, but multiple sales representatives avoided my attempts to make eye contact, walking past me (I had a question about a product) even when they weren't assisting other customers. After this, when there were two agents assisting another customer, and when I tried to get one's attention she told me that she was busy and couldn't talk to me! The one person I finally talked to was reluctant and rude. I was originally pretty serious about a purchase but left the store quickly, feeling humiliated and small. I can't help but think that race played a factor here, since all the agents and other customers were white. Frustrating experience.

Rituals is probably my favourite brand of bath and body products right now. It's great for gifts,…read moremy everyday deodorant, hand soap and shower foam but also for wonderfully subtle fragrances for body, home and even your car! I mostly come to this store because it's so conveniently located in the station and also it's right next to the station's toilets. Which I often use because they're nice and clean. But I'm getting sidetracked and basically all you need to know is that Rituals is great for making yourself happy or anyone your giving a gift to. Rituals is happiness.

I would suggest stopping in here first, before you go blowing your money somewhere else. Shopping for black hair products in the Netherlands is no easy task but there are a few spots that do cater to kinky, frizzy, thick and fine hair. It's not America or London, but these spots are as good as it gets here. When I first came to Holland I had no clue of where to go for hair products but I am proud say that I have become more accumulated to my environment, so I have no problems finding a lot of stores. In the beginning, I blew money on bad curler irons and blow dryers, then I started finally running across stores that made more sense to me. What I like about this store is that it provides a lot of top notch hair appliances for all women and their clientele is very diverse. I was really happy with their inventory. The prices are reasonable and fair, you won't find any shady prices. Yes you will find some items a little higher in Amsterdam as oppose to the USA because of the tax difference but I definitely can tell when a shop is just being down right greedy. The customer service is very friendly and customer oriented. The answer to your question may be in here.You may find a lot of hair products possibly here and if it's not in this shop, than I would suggest to check out a few other places around the corner. However, so far this place is my favorite spot. I was really impress with this store inventory. They had some great hair products primarily for women of color but they also provide hair products for all women.

Shop carefully. There is so much stuff here, literally. Body care, insect repellent, soap, hair…read moredye, shampoo, sunglasses, reading glasses and perfumes, colognes and powders to smell better with. The prices are quite good also. If you're looking for some kind of body care product they probably have it here so if you can't find what you're looking for elsewhere check this place out. It's right on Leidsestraat so while you're looking for it make sure you don't get run over by the tram like I almost did lol. Oh and did I say they also fill prescriptions? They also have a lot of over the counter medicines like ibuprofen, analgesics, bandages, allergy medicines and many other medicinal over the counter products.

I was only looking for conditioner and everything is soooo expensive…read more It's not organized The people are mostly pretty nice But the prices and the little variety of thing to chose from are just too unacceptable I would never go there again!
