Adore Cosmetics - High Pressure - High Price and hard to get out the door
Summer 2017, South Beach Florida. I'm at Lincoln Mall with my daughter, 13 at the time.
We are approached by sales people standing outside. The offer my Daughter a facial for free. "Dad please..." how do I say no? they apply stuff to her and promise all these wonderful results.
before you know it they are ringing up $500 in sales. but before we leave the salesman is blocking us that if we don't buy other products the ones we bought will be ineffective. I say no, he insists, I try to move past him he continues to move in front, addressing my daughter..."what you bought isn't enough..." I now demand my money back on the $500 already spent..."no refunds".
I was going to call my credit card company and file a complaint but decided it was a good lesson to my daughter about predatory sales people. She was very upset by the whole thing.
Within 6 months the items I purchased for her dried up in their little canisters.
Reason of review: predatory sales tactics.
Monetary Loss: $500.
Preferred solution: Let their tactics be exposed on every media possible.
Adore Cosmetics Cons: Aggressive-predatory sales people, Unscrupulous sales tactics, Predatory sales and no return of product.

Basically the exact same experience with my 14 year old who has the genes to acne prone skin that I have. So of course I want the best for her and to be able to prevent teach her skin care as much as possible.
They were not focused on her but my โlarge poresโ which struck a self-conscious nerve being as though I literally just had facial CO2 surgery 4 months ago! They WOULD NOT take no for answer after I repeatedly said no, I canโt, we are buying school supplies/clothes today,...
to the point they gave me โ$500โ worth of product for $100 so I took the lose and tried to run out the door only to be stopped tryin tot get me to buy MORE!!!!! What the *** I was adamant I wouldnโt spend another dime in that store!!!
