Not to long along I joined up with the Prinsess Cosmetics team. I dont think I had ever been so excited! There were rules where you had to do 2-4 photos a week of a full face makeup using their lipstick as well. I was totally fine with this. Through out the next few weeks it was like I was being asked to send photo after photo after photo for all kinds of different things which was just crazy since it was all done through facebook and I do everything from my phone so I rarely get updates on my phone from FB. I dealt with it but it was so disorganized for me.
It was like there were to many bosses, to many things going on that had not been in the contract whatsoever. I did pay $15 to cover shipping charges for lipsticks that I was supposed to be receiving. I got 2 packages total while I was with Prinsess Cosmetics. Both packages were HIGHLY disappointing to me! The first package I got was just one small pot of lip stick, in a very beautiful color might I add called "Classy". That was it. However it was in the smallest container ever to me.
With that being said I was in shock. The only person that knew about it though was my husband. The last time I was with a company that was not paying me they sent me a TON of things, large things, etc. But I was just thinking, let me stick this out, it will get better. THEN, the second package came. And I was actually kind of furious, but again being nice I did not tell anyone except for my husband. Second package came with pots that were 3/4 of the size of the first one. With like a dab of lip color.....
As you can see theres like a few drops in the 3 tiny containers and then the one I got from the first package is a full container. Now I think I may have had one or two more of those small ones come in my package but honestly they are so small that I have no idea where they are. Also in the second package came my custom shade that she made specifically for me called "Barbie Unrated". This one I was pretty excited about! Finally a full container of lipstick and it was pretty!
I loved it! Kind of. I cant say these lipsticks were really ever my favorite. I think I may just have to smooth and soft lips for these. Im not sure why but they would not stay on my lips, they would actually like slide off to just the edges of my lips making my lips look horribly cracked or something. I do love the colors though!! The colors are amazing and very pigmented.
I was then informed if we had gotten 2 packages in one month that we would not receive one for the next month. Which was even more disappointing for me when I knew I would probably end up running out of my "Barbie Unrated" lipstick. And the fact that I just felt like I spent $15 on next to nothing. I am sorry guys. I am not trying to bash Prinsess Cosmetics in anyway but the fact that I had recieved a few messages from people who would not show their faces calling me a bitch, slut, cunt, etc, for backing out of PC..... Just kind of put the icing on the cake for me. I had no problems whatsoever backing out and neither did the owner. And she even refunded my money. But this is just explaining to those who were bad mouthing me for leaving, the real true reason I wanted to leave.
There was only one other thing that played a HUGE factor in me not wanting to promote for Prinsess Cosmetics anymore. That was the simple fact that I had numerous people email me telling me they wanted to purchase my lipstick "Barbie Unrated" and they couldnt. They were telling me they couldnt find it on the website. I didnt even think of it or looking for it before that. So I went to the site and sure enough it wasnt even listed on there. None of the photos I had posted promoting it were on there.
The feelings I had after noticng this were like betrayal. Like I had done all this promoting only to find out that it wasnt even on the website for people to buy! I felt like I was being unfair to all my followers! But I was being nice again and only told my husband about it. I thought maybe she was just busy and what not and didnt want to bother her. But when I finally did ask about it She said she knew she was missing someone and put it on the website right away. Which made me super happy. But then I find out even though it was on there it wouldnt let you select my color. She then informs me that shes starting a new website cause that one wasnt working right. So I was like YAAAAAAAAAAAYYY!!!
I went to the new website and it looked awesome! It was pretty and more up to date and user friendly. Then I noticed again, my lipstick wasnt on there. So I gave it a few days or week or something cause I knew they had asked for more photos to post on the website so I had sent more. And still, everyone elses lipstick was listed on there.... and mine wasnt. It just out right pissed me off, but again I never said anything to anyone. I dont like to be mean to people or stir anything up with others.
A few days later she messaged all us girls and said there were some personal problems going on in her life and she would be taking a break from her company for a few months. And asked us if we wanted to stay or leave. I chose to leave. She was fine with it. I was fine with it, and again she refunded almost all my money. So I thought this was great, wished her the best of luck and we were all moving on. So again. I am not bashing the company. I just felt like I was promoting them and not getting much in return. And this may sound bad but Ive done quite a bit of promoting (mostly with modeling) and I have never felt that way about any of it. So I am sorry to the girls of Prinsess Cosmetics if this offends any of you. But I am defending myself due to the hateful/hurtful messages that I received from someone that apparently knows all about Prinsess Cosmetics.
