Arbat Prestige

I merely wanted a mascara. Well, such is average ... and I rarely use and it dries up at least half a tube. Why pay too much did not want to, but also to buy "the dawn of the Moscow" or something like that - too. In store advertising "Arbat Prestige" I stumbled often, and prices in the magazine were so attractive that when finally one of the stores opened in our town, I decided to just go there and head for the new purchase.

First impression - I was frightened. The huge half-empty rooms with an incredible amount of cosmetics clouded my mind. It was then that I realized how fortunate that I do not use it all. Work up between the stalls and watching the goods, I decided to still stick to the girls a saleswoman, who did not notice me. Apparently, buying something customers have been in this store such a luxury, that they had not hoped to see someone from them during his life, so one painted nails (I just have a question - not whether the goods from the store), and other hobbies chatted.

I had to interrupt their conversation and run into a hostile glance. It was the second time when I regretted that I came to this store (not yet passed after the fright before "sports stadium with cosmetics"). In fur boutiques met me much friendlier, even though their client I do not much like. Explaining the girl that I need a good, but not very expensive ink, I went after her. I was certainly glad that I did not impose on the way perfume, lipstick or eye shadow, but when I brought to the stand, where only some, and there were three types of mascara, I was certainly surprised by it. This is the surprise I expressed aloud. What was a logical response: "You wanted cheaper, it is cheap. Excellent, but what happened to quality? But I'm a girl does not scandalous, why did not specify - silently sgrebla proposed and returned to the cashier.

After I paid off and Inspired by "successful" buy back home, "wings" had to be removed and put on the shelf - the disappointment knew no bounds. Mascara with markdowns to expire, so it is already dried slightly and moderately dangerous for my sensitive eyes, I usually throw. But then she was already half empty. Quiet rejoice that did not take the varnish, which would be unlikely to complete, according to the sellers painted nails, I saved sgrebla check and returned to the store.

To say that I took the ink - is meaningless. "Cosmetics back we do not accept" - and point. And the fact that it is outstanding - no one cares. For the sake of interest I went to the other end of town, where there was a second point of the store. There, even before you pay, tried to find fault about barred goods. In response I heard: "do not like it - do not take." Try to find non-expired ink, still found a couple of "cheap" bottle, of course, for a higher price. With a sigh, took one of them, zarekshis then go to the "Arbat Prestige".

But perhaps I did exaggerate. Despite the fact that defective and expired goods found in this store very often, but "Sov" attitude sellers - almost the norm (pay them so little that it? "Then it would probably in another store departed ...), Arbat Prestige "- truly one of the most inexpensive cosmetics shops in our city. And if you know exactly what you need, or vice versa, you can not decide, and you just need a great choice - something that is just where you should send their heels. But before you give money for the selected item - carefully read the label (if you can find it) and expiry date. But after that still can not hope to get a real branded cosmetics from France or Italy. For it is better to go to specialized shops.

In fact, a chain of stores "Arbat Prestige" can be called a substitute for the Soviet market vendor who sold cosmetics at points or resounding in its offices. Slightly higher quality, a little higher price, and while we no longer pay for better service, and for the opportunity to feel more successful due to the fact that the market is not looking for the cheapest lipstick and would like a buy real quality cosmetics in a huge shopping center . Maybe this is not so, and someone was lucky in this store more?
