Ebeauty ~ #Review

A new company called Ebeauty.
It is another company under Rogers Communication Inc.
During the month of October they were offering free shipping when you purchase more than $25.
Then in November it was free shipping with no minimum, then later with an added bonus they offer an additional 15% discount.
That was when I decided to purchase from the site.
There were some issues before I received everything.
Unfortunately, they ended up charging me additional 2 cents for no reason.  Very odd.  For 2 cents, I will let it go.
First issue was that I was suppose to received a gift with purchase of any product by Nuxe.
I had to call and complain.
Then I was missing my free bag.  I was suppose to receive a free bag because I spent more than $75+.
Finally when I did receive the free bag, I was a bit disappointed - it is a poor quality bag.
Not worth it.
When other beauty product offers free bags, it is 10X better than what I received.
I will be giving the bag away during Christmas like a gift bag.

I purchased:
Murad - facial cleaner

The infamous Beauty Blender with the cleaner

Nuxe hand cream

The free gift with purchase


The free bag because I spent over $75 (cheepo bag - not worth it)
Murad - face wash: it makes my skin really dry so I will only use it occasionally when I have break outs.
Nuxe - hand cream: it is OK.  It had a strange smell but not terrible.  I will still use it since it cost me $17.  With that price tag on a hand lotion I assume it will smell nicer.
Beauty Blender: Still have not tried it yet.  Will try it this weekend - to get ready for a party.  There is alot of youtube demo how to use it.

Overall:
Experience with my first order - 2/5
Customer Service - 4/5
Products received - 4/5
Free gifts - 1/5

Would I purchase again from this site - I doubt it
Would I recommend this? - Unlikely - over charge me by 2 cents, free gift bag was cheap, shipping took forever  (approx 2 weeks).
When I called customer service I did get to speak to a right away.  I didn't have to wait very long and the reps were somewhat helpful.
Unless they have a crazy clearance/sale I might try them again.

Shopping time...

We did some beauty products shopping the other day at Vaughan Mills.
I headed over to StyleSense and bought myself Bliss: fabulous foaming face wash, Kumaara Luminescent Primer, and Opi: Little Romantics set (limited edition).
I have realized that one of the nail polish is not suppose to be in the set.
I am suppose to get a clear top coat nail polish but it came with a red one...
It is OK...I like it.
I know I didnt find that the Bliss Foaming face wash works for me but I was willing to give it another chance.  Maybe if I use it more often...
I always wanted to own some OPI nail polish so I could not resist.
They are my first OPI and I love it.
My nail polish collections is now growing.
StyleSense is another sister store of Winners/HomeSense/Marshall's.
I found they have a good selections on makeup and creams...I think I might be purchasing from them more often.





The 4th nail polish is wrong...should be a clear top coat

One coat
