On May 15, 2017, I went to this MAC store location. I made my make up appointment for 10 a.m. and to have it done before my photo shoot. I was on time and even showed up at least 10 minutes early. The employees were very slow with unlocking the store as I did not get to walk in right at 10 a.m. When I walked in, I told the girl at the counter that I had a make up appointment for 10 a.m. She went in the back to check the schedule. She came back out and said, "Are you sure that you have an appointment with us? We have 4 different locations here." She then proceeded to tell me, "We would never schedule a 10 a.m. appointment because there needs to be at least X amount of people on the floor." Then she showed me a copy of her schedule stating that they had been booked for a while and they don't have anyone listed for 10 a.m. WTF! So I looked on my recent call list and showed her the number that I dialed. I asked if this was the correct store. She said, yes. It seemed as if she had an attitude. At this point, I'm asking myself is it worth getting my make up done here? Are they going to do crappy job? Never received an apology. At this point, time is wasted and it was past 10 am. Make up was "okay" and very basic, make up artist did my make up at a slow pace. Make up artist asked me what type of look was I going for and I wanted high glam, full glam. She barely put on any foundation on my face. I thought it would have been easier to have my make up done at the MAC store before my photo shoot. I could have done my make up myself, but we were driving from Palm Springs to the photo shoot in Glendale. I wanted a fresh face before the photo shoot. I planned the make up appointment according to my photo shoot. When I called to make my make up appointment, I asked how long will it take. I was told that it would only take an hour. In this case, it was beyond the 1 hour. Customer service level: 1 Star read more

The people who work here are: A) Complete and total jerks. I didn't know such a small store could hold such copious amounts of condescension. B) Lacking in skill-set. I asked them to help me find a good, everyday lipstick that would compliment my skin tone (I'm not gifted in looking at a color in the tube and inferring how it will look on my face), and the man "helping" me could not identify the undertones in my skin nor in the lip colors, which, to me, seems like one of the most BASIC necessities of a make-up counter worker. When I told him that neither of the colors he'd chosen were anywhere close to my request , he rolled his eyes, threw up his arms, and told me "well, then, you're on your own." Completely unprofessional and extremely off-putting. read more

I came to this store to buy foundation today and I experienced the worst customer service here. Most MAC stores have been really helpful but this girl was not helpful at all. The lady who helped me continued to correct me every time I said something wrong. IOf course I don't know the name of every product, which is the exact reason why I even asked this girl for help. She had a bad attitude and talked to me like I was an idiot. Your job is to help, not to make someone to feel stupid. I will never purchase anything from this MAC store all because of this girls awful customer service. read more

I have been to many MAC stores and by far this one had the worst customer service. I'm encounter was brief but that's because the women who worked there were stuck up bitches who thought they were too good to do their job. Usually when you go to a MAC store, it's packed with people and the staff are all over the place tending to many customers. However, that was not the case here. The store was near empty, only about 5 people including me. I wanted to get some of their foundation and needed help matching my color. I looked around myself and decided to wait and see if anyone would approach me to help. No one did and one of the clown-faced girls looked right at me then turned the other way! I was so pissed that I dropped the foundation on the table and walked out. One of the other girls realized that some money was walking out of their dull store so she rushed up to me and asked in her most kiss ass voice, "oh did you need some help?" But it was too late. She was talking to the back of my ass. read more

I had never purchased any MAC products before my last visit on a busy Saturday afternoon. I explained to Richie, who was helping me, that i had never been to a MAC store because i was intimidated. I'm not great with makeup and don't know a whole lot about application and choosing the correct tone. He was so awesome. He helped me find some makeup to match my skin tone and did a demo. I felt very comfortable and i look forward to my next visit. Thanks, Richie! You rock! read more

I have a few items from MAC that are holy grail for me, I usually order online but I was at the mall today and had a couple of items I wanted to B2M, I went in looked around for a bit (already knew what I wanted) and when I was ready I looked up to see if someone could help me. I made eye contact with every single artist there and nobody asked me if I needed help, I was aware that some were working with other clients but at stores like this I think knowing how to multi-task is essential to getting more commission. Finally after about ten minutes of being ignored, I say ignored because one of the female artists literally walked in front and past me and bumped into to me a little, no excuse me, no have you been helped, nothing. Finally, I stopped one of the Male artists and kindly asked him if he could help me and he says to me "Do you need help with something because I'm working with someone" in a haughty tone. I said "yes I already know what I need" and he says "ok, but I can't help you right now" he didn't even offer to get someone else to help me or tell me if I could wait a few minutes which I would have. So I left, MAC lost themselves about a $150 sale today. Is it because I wasn't wearing pounds of makeup? Do I look too plain Jane to them? I'm more of a natural girl but I'm loyal to some of their base products, anyhow, your loss MAC, wish I would have known some names... read more

Wow and I mean wow is all I can say. After being a customer for so many years I have never experienced customer service this bad that I feel I must write a negative review. I believe her name was Chris she had the really short light hair. Its beyond words how rude this person was . I mean she was not even trying to hide how disgusted she seemed while ringing up my order . She kept staring at me, raising her eyebrows with a look of pure disgust in her face. It was soooo AWFUL. I just wanted to get out of their as fast as possible. Most evil stare I can describe in the world. Anyone else that saw would have been shocked. Never again!!!! This lady was RUDE! read more

I don't understand how this place is not out of business. The one item I get here (powder foundation) lasts me a good 8 months and I use it nearly every day. Great products. Good for your face. Make your face look good. Competitive prices for similar quality products. On this visit, there were only two other customers and three associates. One of the associates asked if I needed help. I relayed what I came to buy and said that that would be all. I paid. I left. The whole process took no more than 5 minutes. What I appreciate most is that the associate did not try to sell me anything else :) read more

why are the sales associates always so fake-ishly sacrine sweet at MAC stores? this was my second encounter at a MAC store and i just wanted some blendable liquid to make me look flawless (who doesnt? so shoot me). a guy helped me and he was just sooo not there. i mean with me. or something. he just didnt know what he was talking about! and since they didnt have the liquid to match my compact he pretty much said "ok, here you go. if you dont like it you can find something on your own." i was a little disappointed it wasnt more personal. did i look like i didnt have enough money in my pocket that day? wow wow WOW. i like the makeup, actually i love the makeup... but not the people. I'll just stick to Rite-Aid... thanks. read more

I love MAC makeup, but I've never had a completely positive experience at this location. For the most part, the sales associates have good taste, but more often than not, they are either preoccupied with talking amongst themselves or unnecessarily irritated by simple questions. For example, today, a male sales associate was really sassy (this is the only appropriate word) with my sister and snapped at her when she opened a drawer to pick up her shade of concealer. What else was she supposed to do when every other employee was too busy to help her? Granted, he had great brows, but even great eyebrows don't make up for being unhelpful. read more

Went in looking for a lipstick. I saw about 3 workers that did not look busy. As I was going from table to table looking for the right shade, I noticed that no one came up to me to ask if I needed anything. I don't like it when sales people hover over, but it's nice when they check in on you and see if they can be of any assistance. Right before I was about to leave, one of them asked, but it was too late, I'd rather go to the one I usually go to in Rancho Cucamonga and give them my business. read more

I went to get my makeup done here after reading the reviews on Yelp. I thought that I just had to buy $50 worth of makeup to have them do my makeup. However, when I got there and mentioned this to one of the sales reps, she said that they didn't do that at that particular store (implying other stores did this..?). I was not going to have time to do my own makeup so I just had them do it anyway. They signed me up and it took them 30 minutes to get to me even though there were a lot of artists available at that time. They just kinda forgot about me even though I was next on the list. When a makeup artist finally attended me, I mentioned the $50 worth of products in exchange for makeup and she said that Mac stores don't do that and only the Mac stores in Nordstrom did that and it was years ago. read more

I don't know if this is a MAC Cosmetics regional thing but the employees of the MAC store in the Glendale Mall & at the Americana are some of the WORST I've EVER come across and I've been a MAC customer for over 15 years. And having just relocated from NYC, I should know about bad customer service. Walked in Glendale Mall location yesterday because I needed a few things. The store wasn't particularly busy & the girl that offered to help me was already 'over it'. (She was a Latin-looking girl that had a 20s pin-up sort of look - with heavy winged liner and her hair up with a scarf.) Her demeanor was cold and anything but helpful. She knew very little about the products she was showing me and had to go and check ingredients and product descriptions that she should know by heart. Talking to her felt like pulling teeth, like she couldn't be bothered to engage in a conversation about what she was showing me and she seemed one step away from sighing and rolling her eyes. I was so annoyed, I walked out without buying a thing. I went into the Americana store this past Thursday and bought several products. I knew exactly what I wanted and the girl helping me there was also aloof and 'going through the motions'. I chalked it up to being an isolated incident but after experiencing the same demeanor from the Glendale MAC employee I have to say it's a MAC customer service training thing. Estee Lauder, pay attention & train your employees to be helpful and engaging! If they can't be bothered to treat customers with attention & care then they shouldn't be in retail. Now I know why I'm Sephora VIB Rouge. On the whole, Sephora treats its customers WAY better. read more

Great makeup, but the customer service (or lack thereof) makes me wary of giving them my money. If you don't look wealthy, expect to be completely IGNORED even when the store is not busy and there are people just standing behind the counter. After a while I got tired of waiting for someone to help me and simply got the product I needed myself...that's when the girl flew over like a hawk and snapped, "I'll hold that BEHIND THE COUNTER for you." Rude, rude, rude! I cannot believe the management allows their employees to treat paying customers like trash. read more

Great people specially to Chris who helped me a lot in choosing the right tone for skin discoloration. Also, to a very friendly Jessica I loved your yellow hair and Nicole in showing me right stroke in doing my eyebrows. It was that moment that I felt being cared about, such an awesome feeling. Thank you so much! I highly recommend your place because all the people were so well trained, very accommodating and so professional. read more

First time in MAC, ever - wonderful experience. I had a 90 minute makeover with Nina & she was excellent! She really went above and beyond teaching me different techniques. I left feeling beautiful & excited about my new purchases. read more

I have been wearing MAC for about 11 years now. I have always received amazing service and amazing product... until I entered this store. I wasn't even greeted when I entered the store, so I shopped a few other stores and came back... THREE TIMES! I was never greeted. Not once. I will never return to this department store. I actually purchased the items I was looking for from a different vendor. I haven't decided if I will switch to the new brand or not. It just goes to show how much business you can lose by one (or three) times of bad/no service. read more

I buy makeup oh...every five years or so, and my five years was up. I went to the MAC counter at Nordstrom ready to drop some cash. It was completely dead so I figured I'd get good service, especially at Nordstrom. I picked out a lipstick and the sales girl rang it up immediately before I had a chance to look at anything else. I was surprised she didn't take time to ask if I needed anything else, she seemed like she was in a hurry. So I had to stop her and ask about eyeliners. I picked out a black one. She rang it up again, immediately....umm...I wasn't done yet...obviously she wasn't interested in my sale so I paid for those 2 items then went to the MAC store in the mall and spent another $100 (the employees there actually wanted to help me) read more

come here if you enjoy trying to get an employees attention(and fail) just to be ignored! they cant even spit out a 'ill be with you in a minute' or anything for that matter. all i had come for was what shouldve been an in and out purchase (just needed to replace my powder and concealer that i ran out of) turned into leaving the store empty handed and displeased. although this is the nearest location i end up going elsewhere due to the service. read more

Jessica MADE my Halloween! Love her so much, her work speaks for itself. See for yourself! read more

MAC Cosmetics - Cosmetics & Beauty Supply Near Me - Glendale, California

Very poor customer service.. was planning on spending all of my bonus check there but had my wife & I wait 45min for the sales rep to finish stocking the shelves when there was practically no one there!!! read more

Their makeup artists expertise and customer service are the best. I love that they help different causes. They are bold with color and have innovative products. read more

I'm not a huge MAC fan. Their makeup is a bit heavy for me but I do like their lip gloss and some eye shadows. The makeup artists are usually really nice and helpful. They have always helped me find what I'm looking for or suggest gift ideas if I'm buying for a friend. There's always girls getting their makeup done which looks fun...except I'm too scared I'll walk out looking like a drag queen. read more

Every time I have tried to buy something at this MAC store, I get ignored. I usually shop with no makeup on, but they should view me as a blank canvas, not ignore me because I'm not done up like a drag queen. I've stopped even trying to give them my money, now I just go to the MAC counter at Nordstrom. They are actually nice, friendly and very helpful. I would rather them get the commission then the snotty bitches at the actual MAC Store. read more

I have had a love hate relationship with MAC face makeup as it irritates my skin... But I have to say that the store always draws me in with the music, the lights and the hundreds of items I can experiment with before buying a product. I arrived to this MAC store about 30 minutes before closing, and I have to say that staff still continued to be helpful even when I got there so late. Carolina helped me, and I am so glad she did because she showed me the subculture lip liner, a nude based lip liner which ultimately helped my lip stick to stay on my lips. Definitely will recommend this MAC store to my friends. read more

I've reviewed another MAC store on Yelp, so I'm not going to wax too lyrical about this particular branch. They have the usual gargantuan selection of product, and when I dragged my MAC-virgin friend in there to choose some fun new eyeshadow colors, one guy in particular who worked there was incredibly helpful and stuck with us as we looked through the spectrum of shades giving pretty solid advice. I was impressed. :) read more

Friday 642 PM , I walked into this store. My presence was not acknowledged AT ALL. not a hi.. not an excuse me.. not a screw you.. nothing until 652 when in frustration i waited in the checkout lane ..not to check out, but to ask for help since i was being ignored. So a young man with blonde hair and hella tats helped me out. I knew exactly what I wanted to get and I was out 3 minutes later. He was polite and even suggested a better shade of gloss than I had originally tested. He's th reason for a two instead of a one star read more

I have been visiting this location since this great MUA Sandra Tamez help me pick up some great eyeshadow palette, lipsticks, she is a very nice and helpful great customer service and very knowledgeable!! read more

This store has turned me into a MAC loyalist! I can't think of another store where I've been so regularly treated with personal attention and friendliness. Ben M. and Patty V. are great people and very talented makeup artists. I look forward to coming in when there's a new collection or to get my makeup done. I always know I'll be in good hands and will have a great time getting fabulous from really experienced, professional and FUN people! You two are great! read more

All these stars go to Chris. She made my trip to this very busy store worthwhile. She showed me the best smoky eye option for ME, personally. She was friendly, efficient, and good at what she does. If you are going to venture into MAC land, make sure you ask for Chris -you'll be glad you did!!!! read more

I LOVE MAC i mean i buy online and in store and at other locations like nordstroms, ccos and such, but this location i hate. I was even introducing a friend to MAC and I told the sales girl she was new t;o the line... You would think thats a goodf way to upselll right? theu Sales associate was so uninterested in what my friend wanted...Everytime i come here I dont even feel interested in buying. I went to nordtroms down on the other side of the mall, and the MAC counter there was so much more friendlier.. and helpful..go to nordies instead of this place if you hvae to go to one in glendale. read more

I find the setup really really nice and I don't feel pressured to buy the products. But I will say 8 out of 10 employees seem to be super nice and very helpful. But I did encounter one female associate who seemed nice but really seemed to not want to help me (maybe she thought I wasn't going to buy anything). I came and said hey can you help me, she responded with a bit of attitude, what do you need help with. I asked her what natural lipstick color she recommended for me and gave me her suggestions and handed them to me but didn't help apply or disinfect like others have. I ended up buying (2 lipsticks and a lipliner) and I still insisted to have one of the lipsticks purchased under her for credit when being brought up because I really appreciated her suggestion, but still her demeanor was off putting. There was also a guy (on a different day) who didn't seem to have much customer service when I asked for his help on a blush. And when I asked for his help he said oh you want to try on the product? I thought you needed a sample. I'm like whoa whats up with that do I look homeless coming in or something? Also just overall getting help from an associate seemed a bit hard to me. I kept telling one associate again on another day (what can I say I decided to purchase several MAC Products as a Christmas Present to myself over $150 worth now ebay and at their store) Which by the way I have encountered fake MAC products on ebay but their foundation on ebay I have found some are real. I told the associate it was fine to go help the other clients because she kept bouncing back and forth with other people when I asked her help with eyeshadow. They don't offer brushes the employees have that and I really would have like there help so I could blend the colors correctly. After three visits to this location even after the first visit, I immediately tried looking for another MAC cosmetics store, but found the reviews at Burbank weren't that great either. Yikes. So I would just suggest to observe who you would like help from by their demeanor when they help other clients because honestly it is a hit or mis with customer service. read more

They are very helpful but take into consideration that all the sales people here have a sales quota. So they will suggest other things that you might want to buy. Before I go here I already have my list from looking at the MAC Website. So don't feel pressured if they ask if you need anything else. It's their job to ask that. Just politely say no. My favorite sales associate here is Sabrina. She is a sweetheart. I'm a professional makeup artist so I go here at least once a month to replenish my kit. They don't bite. hehe! read more

Dropped by on 6/30/17. I just have to say how wonderful Eula Hwang is! She is the ultimate makeup/skincare person for anyone interested. She helped me out with my makeup routine. She was very patient with me but serious about the topic of makeup. Eula gave me the ultimate MAC experience. Thanks, Eula! I was very blessed to cross paths with you. read more

Worst MAC store I have ever stepped into. There was a girl w/ blonde cornrows that was so rude and snotty. I can't even deal. I have only gone there the times that I have because it is convenient while I'm at the galleria. However, I won't step foot in there again and take a short drive over to Pasadena where ladies are so helpful and sweet! read more

Usually I head to one of the department stores to buy my MAC cosmetics to avoid this store which usually is always busy and so that I am able to ask for assistance if I'm looking for something new. I went in to buy some makeup essentials I needed and Raquel was beyond helpful. Usually I don't like ask for assistance beyond what I need at this store but since it was slow i asked. She was more than happy to show me other products and was super courteous and didn't make me feel she was rushing me along. She made my experience a pleasant one. When I have shopped here during its busier times everyone is always professional and I've had consistent positive customer service experience. read more

I came into MAC yesterday to buy some false eyelashes and Cris not only helped me pick out the perfect pair, she put them on me too! She took the time to answer all of my beauty questions and was kind, friendly, knowledgeable and super pro. I will definitely be coming back to the MAC store! read more

I actually love this store... I had my makeup done here for my wedding day, and got just what I had asked for if not more... I recieved many compliments that day and made sure that they knew who was responsible for my beautiful makeup and smile that day... The artists are very helpful and I have never left without what I needed or feeling overwhelmed or intimidated like some others have stated.. read more

Marissa was very nice and helpful she went above and beyond to help us out with our makeup questions and products will definitely come back to visit her whenever I'm in the Glendale area. read more
