“The job is, in many cases, the second one a girl has after working in a fast-food chain, and the wage scale reflects that short step up the career ladder. The frenetic pace of the drive-thru is still there, as are the constellations of acne breakouts (due, I guess, to a promiscuous level of cosmetic experimentation). The polyester smocks and Madonna headsets are there, but now they are a fashionable black; instead of cleaning fry vats, the girls are armed with tool belts and oil-dissolving cleansers.” – Cintra Wilson, on the in-house makeup artists at Sephora, in the New York Times.

funniest thing about that article? the bit about security. i’ve stolen more stuff from the soho sephora than anywhere else-despite the gun-toting security. sephora is, hands down, the absolute easiest place to boost stuff.

that quote is mean spirited.

I was at a sephora recently, and I asked three girls for help finding a bronzer. I have never felt so UNHELPED. They all recommended the same one, so i bought it. The color did not complement my pale skin in the least. I definitely have some bitterness towards those girls now, which is why I laughed particularly hard after reading it.

mean spirited indeed. the sephora i shop in has absolutely no high school students and the staff is attentive, knowledgeable, and helpful. maybe the writer is just an awful witch who the staff didnt want to help!

The writer seems to have a vendetta. This doesn’t reflect the shopping experiences I’ve had at any Sephora. Seriously, fast food employees? I think it’s wrong to directly attack employees in that manner.

I don’t understand the writer’s scorn for Sephora. I also don’t understand how the subhead says it’s a new store in Soho? Huh? Haven’t I been shopping there for ages already?
