Don’t Be Afraid To Say No!
I know the makeup counters in the big department stores are sometimes more of an intimidation factor than anything else. I want to let you know that it is completely okay to say no thanks to those never ending artists that are dying for you to sit down and let them do your makeup. However, many times this experience can be wonderful and useful. I know that when I was with Trish McEvoy many of my clients became my friends because of the incredible encounter that we experienced together. I always made sure that my clients only bought what they really needed or really wanted. Most of the time artists don’t have the same mindset that I did so keep your eyes open for those who don’t listen to what your needs are. When you come in just for one lipstick and walk out with 20 different products that you really don’t need this is a sign that you were tricked. A lot of the time we feel that if we sit down with an artist that we must buy everything he/she puts on our face. Well I am here to tell you that you don’t have to go broke just because you feel that you can’t say no. It is perfectly fine to sit down with an artist and just buy what you need to buy. Once you feel comfortable with that artist and feel a connection then feel free to try other products. Sometimes this might be initially buying a few things and seeing how helpful that artist is and then coming back to see them at a later date to try more. Because any artist at any makeup counter has a selling goal for that day and sometimes they just want to sell, sell, sell. So stand up for yourself and don’t be afraid to say no.
