Rodeo Cosmetics review: no-refund policy is not valid

This company does business under a variety of different names, including Rodeo Cosmetics and Adore Cosmetics. They are located at 332 N Rodeo Drive. I am posting to help others who may be scammed and not realize their legal right to return the product.

As others have posted, they lure you in from the street and apply a product that does puff up wrinkles while you sit in the chair. You may look amazing at first - but it is temporary. Then they engage in classic scam tactics, claiming they will offer you a huge discount from the original incredibly high prices because they like you, or believe that you have friends you can refer to the store. They start the pricing in the thousands and come down dramatically if you resist at first. They may show you someone else's receipt (supposedly) to explain that they have made so much today from another customer, they can afford to give you a special discount. They mention celebrities who supposedly use their products. They tell you your skin is beautiful, they like you, etc. - all part of the scam.

After you buy, they stamp your receipt FINAL SALE. If you see this post within 7 days of purchase, before you use the product, and you are in California, please Google the California consumer law regarding refunds. Having that stamp on the receipt is not enough. They are required to have clear notice of a no-refund policy at the cash register, on the front door, or on the products - and at least when I was in the store there were no such notices. On this basis, I took my products back, requested a refund, and the manager gave me a refund. I have a feeling they do not do this easily in every case, but if you know your rights, it is worth trying.
