L'Oreal International voluminous lash paradise mascara

I purchased the voluminous lash paradise mascara about 3 weeks ago and it has now gone thick and goopy i am very disappointed as I never spend that much on mascara but had a special night planned and decided to spend the extra money I always buy loreal products but the past few purchases had made me second guess if I should continue with your products

L'Oreal International l’oréal excellence cream

The permanent color cream tube had a leak. This caused the color to spill into the box and onto my bathroom cabinet. The bottom of the box is covered in the dye aswell as the tube opening. This is the only hair color product I use. All my other experiences have been with no complaints. I would like a replacement since I was not able to use the one I bought.

L'Oreal International preference hair color - light brown

Hello,

I am writing to let you know that I usually use L'Oreal Excellence creme for my hair coloring needs, but since they were out of my color at Target, I decided to use the Preference brand instead. Preference did not cover the grey in my roots, and I followed directions exactly. I am really disappointed because I will now have to re-color and it's hard on my hair to do it again.

On the other hand, the conditioner in the Preference brand is MUCH better than the conditioner in the Excellence box. I hate the smell of the Excellence conditioner so much that I usually just throw it away.

PS I also recently tried the L'Oreal telescopic mascara and it is AMAZING!

I would like a refund of my $9 or a coupon for L'Oreal Excellence Creme hair color. Thank you.

Sincerely,
Rebecca Woychick

Subject: Re: Your conversation with LorealParis: [protected]

Good Afternoon Nick,

Thank you for getting back to me.

I am not very happy with the outcome really, the one pensil that is really worn down is that way because I tried several times to sharpen it but was not able to successfully sharpen it with any sharpener... hence I bought the second one, then realised that I was having the same problem.

I have several different cosmetic pensils, such as eye liner & lip pensils and don't have the same problem with any of them?

I use a lot of L'Oreal products facial cleansing wipes, eye cream, day and night moisturising cream, Preference hair colour etc, jone of which are cheap... but now I feel that I have been ripped off by L'Oreal and I will be very reluctant to use or recommend your products in the future... Very disappointed with your Customer Service to a loyal customer.

Regards
Mary Allen

L'Oreal International l'oréal men expert hydra energetic magnetic charcoal cleanser

I decided to switch to this product from my old face cleanser even though I had no issues with the other brand. Ever since I have been applying this to my face, I have been getting acne and I have never had acne problems using my old product. I would like a full refund of my purchase as I don't think I will be able to return it to Walmart where I purchased it originally since it is already open.

L'Oreal International hydra genius//oily skin daily moisturizer

I purchased a moisturizer from a local drugstore about a month or two ago and i liked it, it works great but the last time i went to use it, i pushed down on the pump and its broken. I tried taking off the cap and fixing it but i can't get it to work. Im disappointed in it breaking and that i can't use it, i was hesitant to buy it at first because of the pricing. I would like to get a new one, but i do not want to pay for a new bottle, i still have plenty of product left, i just can't use it.

L'Oreal International colorista

I purchased the pastel blue colorista and applied correctly on Wednesday 22nd November. The results were far from pastel blue but a bright green. I have used the colorista remover and used several home treatments such as deep cleansing shampoos and bleach baths, nothing is removing the green. I am extremely angry as now I'm going to have to pay a hefty hairdressers bill and will need my hair cutting due to the bleach I've had to put on it. The box stated that it is 'wash in wash out' approx 15 washes. There is no sign that this green shifting anywhere.
I'd appreciate it i could hear back from you as soon as possible.
I look forward to your responce,
Chloe

L'Oreal International l'oreal true match mineral powder

I have been using this product for a few years now as it lasts about 3 months and gives me the perfect coverage I need. It's really handy to take out with you on the move as it came with a brush applicator and it was really easy to get the powder on the brush.

The packaging has now changed and it's really ruined it for me. I'm still using the brush from the the pot that has just run out, as it's the only thing that fits. I can't get any powder on the brush because of the strange mesh feature now instead of the holes. This now adds a lot of time onto my morning routine because of the struggle of getting enough powder out. I'm so disappointed in this new product and may have to consider changing brands moving forward and find an easier to use powder.

I'm not necessarily looking for something to resolve this. Maybe just bring back the old packaging as a lot of people have the same views.

L'Oreal International I have offered a service to one of your employees, but he's refusing to pay

I was contacted a few weeks ago by a L'Oréal Belgique employee (Ysaline De Cocq) asking me some music advice for a private event they were organising. I took the time to get more information, think about three artists that could fit the event, get in touch with them, ask their availability and get back to L'Oreal with some proposals.

I have clearly mentioned since the beginning that I would have charged a 10% booking fee (and have written prove of this).

The person who contacted me had the great idea to never reply to my email, get in touch directly with the artist (aka bypassing me), and sound totally surprised/disappointed when I sent her the invoice for the booking fee. Of course, she's never took the time to reply to me again.

I'd like to know if this is something that your company approves.

I'd also like to take this opportunity to remind you that every aspect of music and arts in general (booking, promotion, art direction, composition, production, performance, publishing, etc.) requires time/money and it's unacceptable to expect to have it for free.

L'Oreal International lash paradise mascara

I've used Mascara for over 40 years, recently bought a time of this type because I was told it's the Mascara that replaced Reach Out by Loreal. It's awful it comes out of the tube all clumpy. When I try to use it, I have to twirl it on a tissue to wipe off the excess. I can't take it back, because I didn't save the receipt. How do I go about getting a refund. This may sound silly but I'm living on a fixed income, so I can't afford to throw money away on something I can't use

Wherever you purchased the product will be who you want to pursue for a refund. Unfortunately since you threw away your receipt, they probably cannot do anything for you, however they may offer you a store credit. It's important to save receipts when you're trying a new product. Without a receipt, a business has no evidence that you purchased it from them, purchased it at all, purchased it recently, etc.

L'Oreal International garnier skinactive moisture bomb tissue mask

I was super excited to use one of the garnier face masks-moistre bomb tissue masks, a few hours later I got a huge irritation arround my eyes. I can barely open my let eye, it is swollowed.

I really hope it will fade soon as I can not go to work looking like this, and hope it will not become worse.

Please see the attached photos.

I would like to hear if loreal has some kind of sugestion before this goes viral in the social media.

Best regards,

L'Oreal International l’oreal kids sweet pear tangle tamer

I have two young twin Children aged four who suffer from sever thick knotty bushy hair, especially after bath time . They would cry their eyes out every time I got the comb out and I didn't know where to turn too. I went into my local boots and came across your product and thought this was the answer to all my prayers . I then persisted to read the bottle where it said "no tears ! No knots !" And I strongly believed it . I went home and the next day it was bath time . Soon after bath time I showed them this and they were very excited as I would spend hours on end trying to brush their hair. I followed the instructions ie. I towelled dried their hair, and then sprayed a considerable amount in. I then got the comb out and started to brush and soon after I realised to my horror that the hair was in fact, unchanged. Soon after, the tears started and me and my 14 year old were beyond angry and outraged. As the tears started, so did mine. I hope ye take the time to read this for the good of your company and I will not take further actions if you provide something for me in response to my time writing this .

Not all products work for all people. You could try taking it back to the store of purchase if you still have your receipt for a refund or replacement. Also besides complaining more, there isn't really any further action you can take.

L'Oreal International excellence creme

To whom it may concern,
Dear Sir/Madam,

I'm writing to inform you about damaging of my hair colour and asking for a compensation for this.

Currently I live in Kingdom of Cambodia and today I have bought your product Exellence cream Hair Colour. I am blond, so I took a pack with number 7.01 Cool Blonde. After using it according to the instruction and washing it away I found that my hair became DARK BROWN instead of promised blond.

My husband is witness as he helped me to colour it and bought it together with me.
I am asking for the compensation in amount of 250$ as I will have to go to expensive salon to fix my hair colour. This kind of colouring will cost me 200$, and 50$ for treatment of my hair after it.

Looking forward for your answer.
Best regards,
Iana Sheremetova.

L'Oreal International shampoo and conditioner

Hie,
I am from India, there is a huge scam of people selling L'Oréal products with INR 100 /-to 300/- saying it original product.
It's include Shampoo, conditioner etc.
All I am concern with L'Oréal products as I am genuine user of your products. But people like these are ruining the brand name of L'Oréal.
Request you to kindly look into it at your earliest as the duplicate products under L'Oréal name will affect someone and ruin the brand.

Address - BMC Market, Opposite Aneeta Oil & Soap, Borivali West, Mumbai 400092, Maharashtra, India.

L'Oreal International true match foundation

Very unimpressed with the quality of the bottle to the true match foundation. I recently purchased at the drakes circus store in Boots after reading some fantastic reviews online. The actual pump seemed to break meaning that none of the liquid can pump through the top of the bottle. Now I have managed to snap the top off so I can scoop the liquid out and use it but it's an absolute mess, cannot travel with it and has ruined the entire experience of it. Not sure if you've had similar complaints by was just very annoyed by the whole thing.

L'Oreal International feria r48

I have dark brown hair so I purchased this product because my hair color is listed and I wanted the color that was the proposed result. I followed the directions completely. My hair is just a little darker but only red if it's directly in bright light. I expected it to be a little different from the picture but it's far different. I trusted the brand or else I would've been less shocked. Now I will have to color my hair again, with a different product, obviously, to get the red I wanted. I should've known when my daughter's hair didn't get anywhere near the color a few weeks ago. I thought it may have been old product or something. My best guess now is it just doesn't work. I'm very disappointed.
