I haven't bought from Glossier in a long time but I really did love their toner and balm cleanser so I knew I had to check them out. As soon as I entered I was greeted right away, the sales associate had told me of their promotions and since it was after Christmas there were a lot of great deals. I wandered around and ended up choosing a lip balm, I wish I could buy the perfume but it was too large and wouldn't be able to bring it back in my carry on. After I let the sales associate know which item I wanted to purchase, I paid for it with her and was told to wait while my order was being prepped. The store itself is decorated pretty minimally not including the boulders with the whimsical mushrooms, the seating is also perfect for non shoppers where I left my husband. I don't believe there are many physical stores throughout the country so I was excited to get to check them out.

Cute store with lots of potential (dangerous in the pocket )…read more My friends and I had a lot of fun looking at everything, since they were so cute and very useful too. My friend got me this mango hand cream and lip gloss. The rest of our friends bought something else according to their needs. They pretty much have anything you need for facial needs. The place just gives you a good vibe when you enter in and see what they sell. It is very open and very bright that it makes you want to keep looking what else they got. Although it's smaller shop compare to Sephora or other brand store, but it makes a great impact. The lady was very helpful and made sure we got everything we needed, plus a free sample . Will be back again to try other things.

We were given a brief explanation of their fragrances and the staff helped me narrow down a particular scent. After a few testers, I landed at Santal 33. This was my favorite scent and decided to purchase a sample. There were also hand soaps, oils, hand creams, candles, and lotions. I tried out a few of the lotion samples and decided to also bring home a bottle of the orange. The price is on the higher end, however with the selections of the scents, it was worth it. I will be returning to get a 1.7oz bottle of the Santal 33.

I appreciate the quick action once they got my email. Christian, the Concierge, delivered and was super helpful!

I don't think this is necessary the store's fault but they should account for situations like this right? Not really to this Asian store no. Took this product back to the store hoping for a refund or exchange, was told blatantly by a male staff there that "the terms are written clearly on the recipe, you open it you can't return/exchange". Well, how would I know if your products are potentially flawed/expired/harmful to the human bodies, if I don't ever use it in the first place? What kind of logic is that? I can toss away 15 bucks to the trash sure that's fine, but rest assured that I will let everyone know how horribly you treat your customers. Do not buy from this store.

It was truly impossible to get helpful help. I wanted advice on color/product recommendations, and the gal I had straight up said she can't help unless I sign up for a make-up tutorial/lesson. I have been shopping at Sephora for years, maybe decades, and never had that happen. I ended up walking out with nothing, and went over to Nordstrom where someone helped me pick out some new products.

What I purchased was a body spray from the Phlur brand. This particular brand produces a wide variety of body mists. The particular variety that I tried was what is called the Mood Ring. And it's a very appropriate name for the wide ranges or dimensions if you will on the fragrance I had with this particular item. It had floral, fruity (perhaps) and a pleasant earthiness to it . To tell you the truth I didn't know what I thought about at first as I was getting accustomed to the fragrance. But in the end I liked it and the complexity that was involved with this body spray. In a way I kind of felt a little like a hippie with this scent...which comes full circle again to the name...Mood Ring.

I feel that because of your actions in this matter you gave back to me, and allowed me to receive the respect that I deserve. If it wasn't for the three of you, I would have still been trying to figure out exactly the best way to correct a horrible situation.

I can't recommend Dr. Shvidler and the team at the Seattle facial plastic surgery center enough!…read moreFrom my initial consultation to surgery day to post op it was a great experience. Dr. Shvidler is calm, kind, and patient. You can tell he really cares about his patients and their outcomes. He intently listens and takes into account your goals and wishes while still being realistic about what to expect. I did A LOT of research ahead of my septorhinoplasty and I felt confident Dr. Shvidler would be the best fit for my case. My new nose looks amazing! In addition to fixing my deviated septum, I made it clear I wanted natural results when it came to the cosmetic aspect with the goal of making my nose look more symmetrical -- Dr. Shvidler absolutely delivered. I would recommend him to anyone.

And while under I figured I could do some rhinoplasty to correct the shape of my nose. I looked at a few places, nervous because I've never had surgery before. After meeting Dr Schvindler, I knew this was the place. For me, I didn't want some sterile Beverly Hills plastic surgeon, I wanted a compassionate, warm place and a doctor who helps Vets, teaches, and specializes on face. So after a few months the day finally arrived! I had a 6am appointment and nervous, no idea how much pain I'll be in afterward, and thought about backing out. But I press forward, comforted by the amazing anesthesiologist whom made me laugh and stayed with me the whole time. After getting on the table, I fell asleep without even noticing I was about to and woke up basically on my way home. My wife putting me to bed I didn't feel tired and in fact felt energetic. The most profound thing is that I didn't even take the strong pain killers at any time afterwards. I felt no pain at any stage ever. Sure the first day is like a really bad cold, and you are super stuffy but each day gets better and in a week you are back to normal. After the first day the gel in your nose disintegrates. Nothing else goes in there. So a month later writing this, yes it will take a while for swelling subside but an amazing experience. I am so thankful for Dr S. If you are on the fence even, book an appointment and come here. I can't believe I suffered so many years with a crooked nose. Night and day
