Store front

Worst experience ever.... Walked in needed a cushion foundation and my boyfriend had asked the worker if there were any others besides the few in the front. She laughed in his face and said "we don't sell foundation" then followed us as we walked out of the store.

Eye lashes yaaaaay!!!!!!!

Hunting for fake eyelashes? This reminds me of beauty supply stores in tokyo. Large selection of cheap to moderate priced items. Japantown beauty suppy store was closed so I drove here to look for Japanese products. Wall to wall packed with stuff. Soooo much beauty products to buy. Like Walgreens beauty section but every inch packed.

Cute store with even cuter employees. Every inch of this place is brightly colored and screams hello kitty. They offer plenty of beauty products from Japan. Prices are high. You can find some of the products cheaper elsewhere. The employees do a great job keeping the store organized and neat. They were helpful and friendly. I was also given free samples in my check out bag, thanks! If you're in the area and looking for beauty products from Japan, this is a nice place to check out.

The attitude of their cashier is terrible. I felt bad every time I shop there. The cashier is impolite and mean that they looks like they don't get paid for their job. And they literally just stood there after I paid. She didn't even say Thank You to me and she literally just started to chatting with her friend which is another girl working there after charged me. I'm surprised with the cashier didn't even say goodbye or thanks to their costumers instead chatting with friend during working. Horrible attitudes

Can you try on makeup (like at Sephora)?

There are testers for a few.

With no intention of getting anything, I always managed to break my wallet here while waiting for Din Tai Fung.

My friend recently went to this store and experienced a misleading promotion and the store is still…read morerefusing to honor its own printed advertisement. Their Black Friday flyer clearly said "Purchase $59 - Get Free Lucky Box." There were no conditions listed, no "after discount," no "single transaction," nothing. But after purchasing $59 worth of items (before their 20% sale), the staff suddenly invented new conditions on the spot -- none of which appear in the advertisement. When asked where these terms were printed, they couldn't point to anything and said "it was obvious." Under California's false advertising law (Bus. & Prof. Code §17500), you cannot enforce undisclosed conditions on a promotional offer. When my friend brought this up, the staff became defensive, refused to provide anything in writing, and insisted the manager "could only discuss it in person or over the phone," which is extremely suspicious behavior for what should be a simple, straightforward promotion. The entire interaction feels dishonest. Instead of correcting the issue, they stalled, evaded, and repeatedly refused written communication. This should tells you everything you need to know. If a store can't honor its own flyer as printed, that's a serious problem. Shoppers deserve transparency, not bait-and-switch tactics. I hope people avoid this location until they learn how to advertise honestly and treat customers with basic professionalism.

I was mainly concerned about my angry elevens and the nurse was able to assess any other areas that may need freezing. I ended up getting injected in between my eyebrows and forehead and the process was pretty painless! It feels like a small pinch and took only 5 mins after the consultation. Even if you dont think you need it, botox is preventative! In the next couple days I could no longer squint and deepen the winkles. I'm so happy with the results and I know you will be too enjoy. venus cosmetic med spa 5928 Temple City Blvd, Temple City, CA 91780

She wasn't able to explain/understand one of the promotions in her desk about if we leave a review in Yelp , we either get 10 % off or a free item... I left it as that . I paid for 60 units of xeomin however they only used 4 syringes. Usually in other places they use 6 syringes of 10 units each . Also the syringes were ready when I entered the room . I didn't like that. I like to see the bottles and when they are filling the syringe. Lastly , this is the first time that they lay me down completely in the bed when they are injecting the product in other places , they always ask you to sit ( not lay ) . Today is the second day , hopefully soon I can update .

While I appreciate that the pricing here is competitive, I came here for a consultation and was not…read moreimpressed by their service or bedside manner. First, the phone call to make the appointment was easy. They were polite and efficient both with booking the initial consult and with rescheduling when I needed. However, once I got to the actual appointment, I didn't enjoy their service. I arrived for my appointment at 2pm, and at the front desk was a security officer instead of a receptionist. He seemed confused by my presence and told me that everyone was out to lunch. I was confused and he told me to talk to one of the nurses, but she looked annoyed at me and told me to keep waiting in the lobby -- when I asked if they were on their lunch, she said no and to be patient. Finally, I was seen by the consultant. The consultant was very no-nonsense and didn't seem to have the patience to answer my questions. When I asked her about my concerns re: skin fat burning, she would brush them off by saying "Well, just use a different laser then". Okay, but...she didn't answer my questions or really explain the pros and cons of each laser? Ultimately, I will choose a different location. There are other places with similar pricing where you will feel valued and treated like a patient.

I had a disappointing experience at Ulta. The cashier, Stephanie, was not very helpful and made me…read morefeel uncomfortable. When I had questions about using the app and my rewards, she looked at me as if I should already know how everything works. As a 50-year-old woman, I don't always feel confident navigating technology, and a little patience would have gone a long way. I had the app open and showed her my coupons, but she didn't offer to apply them. I had to insist on using both my points and my coupons. Throughout the transaction, she seemed irritated and unhappy to assist me. I enjoy shopping at Ulta and appreciate the rewards program, but customer service should feel welcoming and supportive, especially when customers need a little help.

I Didn't like it and planned to return it. I opened the blush and it was empty! There was a blush container but there was no product in it. My guess is someone did a switch at the store. I considered returning them tomorrow, but given the bizarre situation, I went to the Monrovia store closer to home. Both Sabrina (cashier) and Stephanie the "manager" refused to refund me. I showed my receipt which was dated today within the hour. I live closer to Ulta Monrovia so I came to them. They were snide and refused to help. Despite Ulta's policy being a refund in 30 days or exchange in 60 days. I left and called the Eastland store. Alexis helped me over the phone. They Confirmed my receipt info and put me on hold to call the Monrovia store. After Alexis' call, I was able to walk back into the Monrovia store and get my refund as was originally my right to do. As I walked in the "manager" Stephanie passed me. She made no apology for the misunderstanding or even acknowledged me--rude. 1. Always check your product before l leaving the store. 2. Don't go to the Monrovia location. As a side note, I also returned the lipstick/pencil combo. NEVER did Sabrina or the manager open it to see if it was intact or even in the box! Had I not said anything about the blush being empty, they probably would have not checked that box either. Horrible business practice and even worse customer service!
