Doesn't it irk you?
I was walking past this pushcart selling mineral makeup; and
this Chinese salesgirl approached me to try. I was telling her I
just wanted to look, nothing else and thanks alot.
She kept telling me, 'come try the makeup, no obligations to
buy'. So I was like, Okay, just foundation.
Just as she was about to apply the makeup for me, her Indian
colleague came from somewhere (presumingly the loo) and took over.
She added eyeshadow and lipstick although I said 'just foundation'.
And the thing was, my bag was on my lap all the while and she
liberally dusted the powdered mineral makeup for me, letting all
the excess makeup drop onto my beautiful black bag. I had to send
it for washing after that.
After applying, I said thanks and made to walk off but she kept
hounding me to buy. I said, sure, but I want to see how effective
it is for me as I have extremely oily face and bad skin (which she
can tell from a glance), and requested a brochure. At first she
said there was a brochure whilst she was hounding me to buy. Then
when I kept refusing nicely she turned mean and her facial
expression totally changed. She said, no brochure.
I was 'WTF' and very pissed off. I did tell her her colleague
said I had no obligations to buy. And she blamed me by saying I
didn't tell her. Was there a need to tell her? No.
That pushcard is purecolors at Junction 8 basement. The mineral
makeup is pricey, and some of the service personnel (not all I
think) are bad.
Just sharing my experience, not telling you guys to boycott that
brand..
