The worst shopping experience I've ever had. The sales…read moreassociate -- I think her name was Judy or Jedd -- was incredibly pushy and made the entire visit uncomfortable. She followed me around the store, constantly pressuring me to make a purchase and even tried to rush me to the checkout. She repeatedly misled me about a VIP promotion, claiming I'd get a coupon I could use right away. When I asked if it applied to the lipsticks I was interested in, she said yes -- but conveniently failed to mention it was only valid on a $150 minimum purchase and limited to certain brands. After I spent time carefully picking out items, the cashier informed me the coupon couldn't even be used on most of them. It felt like the whole thing was just a tactic to boost her commission before the end of her shift. I honestly don't understand how a major store would hire someone like that -- dishonest, aggressive, and clearly not focused on customer experience.

While I typically stay away from Sasa stores here in Hong Kong as I find them chaotic and not…read morestocked with product brands and lines I am seeking, this particular location is a game-changer. So what puts the 'Supreme' in this Sasa outpost? According to their website, it's a concept store providing a comprehensive cosmetics selection in addition to beauty and styling services. What I noticed: an open layout, tons of space to roam without bumping elbows with anyone, so many more products than the regular Sasa stores, and better product availability within certain cosmetic lines. I didn't end up going home with any cosmetics (I tend to prefer department store lines), but I did find my beloved Nuxe line and at a very competitive price offering. I took home a large shower gel and a shampoo for about $225 HKD - not bad for this French line that smells sensual yet fresh (in a 'warm' kind of way) at the same time. I also have the perfume (purchased in Paris) and so many strangers stop me to inquire about my fragrance. It's a good one! I'll definitely be back when it's time to get my hands on more Nuxe goodies.

Sasa is like the Ulta of Hong Kong (if you are from America and are familiar with Ulta). THere are…read moreseveral Sasa's around Hong Kong. Their selection from store to store can vary and is not consistent based on the size of the store it seeems, so just know that. But if you are a skin care guru like myself and like to dabble in all things beauty and skin care, Sasa is a good place to spend some time and browse around. Lots of Korean, Chinese and Japanese skin care brands you cannot easily find in the US. They sell a vast variety of brands from low end like Nutrogena & Burts Bees to high end like SK-II and La Mer, and many brands in between. Skin care appears to be about 65% of their business model, with make-up lines, lotions, shampoos, etc. making up the other 35%. It is not that their prices are any less expensive necessarily, simply they have more brands and more variety in one store. Skin care can be tricky and you can get lost in a sea of serums, masks, lotions and creams if you are not knowledgable in places like this. Sasa has a website in which you can look at brands in English that appear only in another language when you are looking at the packaging in the actual store. They do appear to have a membership program that rewards you for your loyalty as well. Sasa is a good way to look at a lot of skincare

It started at Beecrazy (a website with which I had had a bad experience buying a coconut oil that turned out to be disgusting) so my expectation was low. I bought a lymphatic massage and facial déclore treatment for 56HKD. Honestly I bought it for the massage, the skin treatment was just an add-on I didn't care much about. I got there this evening, after two days of working at a fair walking and standing on high heels and I felt completely drained of energy. I just wanted to lay on bed. They asked me to fill in some info about myself and led me to the room. The masseuse, who's one of the managers, explained the point of the massage to me and warned me that it could be a little painful however it turned out to be quite pleasant. She was very professional and made every movement with a lot of CARE. That lasted for about an hour and she then introduced me to the skin therapist who examined my skin and recommended some treatment, all included within my coupon. I agreed and just trusted her for the rest of the hour of AMAZING service. Mask for the eyes, for the mouth, for the rest of the face skin, even for the hands! And omg, she even reshaped my eyebrows. What a great professional. Seriously, I had to tell her. The last part of the session I had the mask on for (I think) 20 minutes, but I was so relaxed and happy I fell asleep and dreamed! When I came out she explained to me various treatments I could follow according to my skin type and told me I could get the trial price by leaving a deposit of 100HKD. Since I didn't know when or whether I could come back, I decided not to but it's a good offer. She didn't push me to decide on the spot at all but gave me the manager card to contact her directly for appointment. Just amazing...my skin looks so nice, and I'm sooo chilled out I'll be on my way to bed very soon.

And It is a walking distance from Holiday Inn Express where I am staying. My daughter wanted some of the No Sebum Mineral Powder. (I came early and I have to wait for the store to open). I was glad that they have what I was looking for. There is a 15% discount if you buy 7pcs. So that's what I did. The salesperson is welcoming. She greeted me with a smile and asked what I was looking. The downside is that the store is tiny. Probably 4 - 5 customers can fit at times. If more than that, it will be so stuffy and crowded.

They do not have any other stores, just this one. With it being in this location, makes it very popular for those crossing the border trying to get deals. There are indeed deals to be had here. The store can get crowded at times because it is rather small and cozy. If you would like to visit, suggest early in the morning when the crowds have not arrived yet. You will have more room to shop while dealing with less crowds. What makes it so attractive. You should pay a visit and go find out yourself. Who doesn't like a bargain!

If you want cheap toiletry or personal care items- you can go wrong at the Lung Shing Dispensary…read more You might be left wondering why of all the personal care/ dispensaries in Tsim Sha Tsui, all with their own flashing neon lights and welcoming staff; that everyone will decide that they would like to stand out in the heat and queue up inside this antiquated shop. The answer is quite simple: its cheap. Everything you find in here will be cheaper than anywhere you can find in TST or for that matter- Hong Kong. You will not get any friendly service or a nice shopping environment to let you choose what you want; its a smash and grab situation where you head in there and just take anything you see as if you were breaking in. The constant number of tourists both inside and outside the shop will also remind you that its not only locals that come here, many come across the border specifically to stock up on these items and there is nowhere else they would choose but this place. This shop is a sight to be seen in a sense, I think a lot of people from abroad will find it interesting how hoards of people are piling into this little shop and literally climbing over each other for some soap. Forget about paying by credit card by the way- its cash only and that's the way it is.

The store in Causeway is very similar to the other stores they have so I will just stick to the product review. This brand is from Greece, it is actually much cheaper buying in Greece, but it's expected to be a little bit more expensive here right? Anyway, the Greek have beautiful lands, especially futile for cultivating organic products. I normally use the lip balm, shampoo, conditioner and masks from here. The store in Causeway is great, because it's convenient and the shop attendants are helpful in suggesting what is good for your skin type. My skin is on the dry side, so the shop attendant recommended a few masks for me to use, including the royal jelly, propolis, and pomegranate. One package can last me two nights, which makes it really reasonable to buy compared to some other masks. After using the royal jelly mask, i felt like my skin was glowing for a few days after using it. I love the feeling you get when you wash your face off and feel your face for the first time! The eye masks are also great, they are ultra moisturising and soft. I accidentally got some into my eye while washing the mask off, in the beginning, i felt my eyes a little blurry but after a few moments, it was fine, didn't sting at all. I highly recommend this brand and this shop location too. The shop attendants were professional and knew what they were talking about.

I love the stuff, despite the fact it is obviously targeting much younger audience, it's for the most part, pink in packaging so as a middle age woman, you'd think it's not good for you, wrong. Here is what I suggest you should purchase at this fabulous little pink house. 1. Eyebrow pencils. Soft tip, very easy to use, never have to sharpen. 2. Mineral powder. Way better than any U.S. brands. Perfect for Asian skin tone. 3. Eyeliners. Go nuts. There are so many shades. So soft and so pretty. This is a smaller outfit, the Tokyo ones have much more selection, and you can certainly see there is a difference in terms what people in HK are looking for, judging by what they have on offer, but this is pretty neat little store. Buy the cosmetics, replenish your backup supplies, while waiting for your number to be called at the nearby restaurant. A winner. Totally underrated cosmetic brand perfect for our skin tone.
