A WOMAN STEALS MAKEUP, PAYS FOR TOILET PAPER. Stealing beauty products, selling at a flea market. Rudy Giuliani's Daughter , Miss USA, Shannon Marketic , were both arrested for stealing beauty products they could afford why do it? Think it does not matter? Think if everyone does it, it must be okay. I would prefer however if you have to steal, do it outright so you can be caught rather than be stealing and leaving your product, tainted silently on the shelves for the unsuspected customer expecting they are buying a new product. SOME products like nail polish does not have seals, you cant tell if it was compromised or not, but if its been on your dirty feet, I don't want it.
LADIES, NO, IT IS NOT OKAY, YOU ARE DOING MORE THAN STEALING WHEN YOU GO TO THE STORE AND "TRY ON" AN ENTIRE MANICURE OF NAIL POLISH IN THE STORE. IT IS STEALING.
When Retail Stores offer items for sample, there are specially designated bottles set out marked "sample" that you may try from. You are stealing when you "sample" items that are not marked sample, but its way more than that. I have seen women and girls, 'sampling" nail polish, mascara, and lipstick in the stores. Stop it already! Its tacky, cheap, and unhygienic, no one wants your skin flecks, dna, germs, and toe jam in their beauty products, that they THINK they are buying NEW and have never been used.
Now I never dreamed I would need to be writing about this, but I have seen this now a half dozen times recently, and the stories are disgusting. Ladies, we deserve the best, so buy it, and insist others, who are trying to steal it, stop!!!
- Target Stores: 6:00 p.m on a weeknight. I am in the hair coloring aisle, where 4 teenage girls are huddled around blocking the aisle, using the open shelf area to polish their nails. They brought their own "rag, and used a bottle of nail polish remover to remove the polish on their nails and select a new color. Yes they did this all, while BLOCKING the access to the products I came to buy. I asked them to move, but they ignored my request until I pulled out my cell phone and started preparing to snap a few pictures. The last girl, around 18, left fluorescent yellow nail polish on the shelf, the nail polish remover bottle, and had not gotten it all cleaned up, so she picked it all up and moved over to the makeup aisle to finish the work. I rounded up security, where they were picking out their makeup colors to complete the look. I pointed the 4 girls out to the security guard and went on my way. THEN called the store manager, FURIOUS that paying customers were being so impeded by stealing customers.
- Target Store: 10:00 p.m. on a weeknight. Its late and I need to get some cleaning products. The 30 something year old woman had set up her own little spa in the Target store, she was talking with her family on the phone, sitting on the low clear shelf at target where the high end anti-aging products are housed. She took sandals off and was replacing the old nail polish on her toenails with a fresh coat of bright pink nail polish. I watched incredulously as I walked AROUND her feet hanging out in the aisle, so I can finish shopping. ICK I thought. OMG I have been buying nail polish that possibly has been put on someone's dirty feet. IF I dont want this I must say something. On the next aisle over a night worker is stocking the shelf. I said, "Um there is a woman talking on the phone, blocking the aisle, and painting her dirty toenails with new polish" "Nothing I can do he said, happens all the time, we cant really make them stop".
- ULTA: A Teenager with a Twenty something girl, both in micromini skirts and platform shoes brushes back her hair and gives herself a complete makeover, broke the seal on eyeliner, rimmed her eyes, applied mascara, lipstick and eyeshadow.
OTHER REASONS BESIDES THE FACT ITS THEFT TO USE SOMETHING NOT LABELED SAMPLE: Makeup is NOT like a used car that can be cleaned and used!
- People have every reason to expect the new product they are purchasing hasn't been worn.
- It is unhygienic to use a product and return it to the shelf.
- You could be spreading OR receiving sickness, germs, pink eye, hepatitis A, cold sores
- Unclean feet have OTHER germs on them that could be spread when put on the hands of unsuspecting owners.
- People want to buy things in the store you are stealing from, and you are in the way.
- People don't want to buy the things you opened and closed back up like its nothing.
