The salon lady that was going to help me out on lashes has 4" nails and couldn't get them to stay…read more When I got up to look at them they were already half way off so I tried to push it back on to my lid-and it fell off. I told her they weren't staying to which she said, "they won't if you keep touching them." They were not placed anywhere near my lash line and never did stick. I think having long dirty nails near the lash line was a bad move and it definitely made it hard to complete the lash process.

This particular Sephora store is fine as long as you know they have exactly what you need. They…read moredon't carry as much of a selection as most other Sephora stores. I've gotten attitude from one employee when I simply asked for her to help me find a product I'd seen at another Sephora. This site didn't carry it, so I was met with defensiveness. The main issue I've noticed is rude employees. Most of the staff seem nice and helpful, but interestingly I've been treated poorly 8 out of the 10 times I've been to this store (this is why I thought I'd finally leave a review). Before my birthday month an employee informed me I could receive my birthday gift anytime of the year. I went to get my birthday gift and was told it was too late. I explained what another staff had told me and was basically told too bad. Typically with customer service, and something so minkr, you just give the customer the benefit so they keep coming back. Nope. Not with this employee. After all the weird service I've gotten here I doubt I'll shop here. I'll go to Des Moines or online. I only give it 1 star because of the nice young lady who I chatted with that helped with my eyeliner and for the gal who's helped me in the past and was nice.
