After following up via email, they claimed they no longer sell the product and asked for a link and my receipt. Despite providing everything, they stopped responding altogether.

Let me first start by saying that I have been a faithful MAC user for almost 30 years. I was in…read moreIreland on vacation and needed to replenish my stock. NICOLA is the one that was at the front desk. I waited for almost 10 minutes without being greeted. She told me they were short staffed and asked if I wouldn't mind "calling back." (Coming back later.) I told her I was on vacation and on a tight schedule and I needed to just grab a couple things and she turned around and just left. After ANOTHER 10 minutes, she returned and asked what I needed. I needed a purple eyeliner and she pulls one out and after I said, "that is gorgeous, I will take it!" She replies, "oh, we are all out of this." Confused, and wondering why she would show it to me in the first place if it wasn't for sale, I said, "Ok, I will buy the sample off of you." She replied she wasn't allowed to sell the sample, because it wasn't counted in as inventory. I went for another product, also of which they were out of. She was so terrible and tried to rush me out of there so quickly, I literally left in tears. If you are looking for a place to get pampered or simply replenish your stock, this is not it. I would highly suggest going to Dior in the same mall (Brown Thomas,) or ANY other makeup counter. Anything would have been more accommodating than this. If I ever return to Dublin, I will NEVER return to this MAC store. Nicola was just awful.

I love MAC as a brand and their concealer (Select Cover-Up NW35) is the holy grail for my dark…read morecircles which I've been using for a good few years now. I also like the MAC lipsticks, not as much as the Bobbie Brown ones but they I find that they have a better selection of colours and more youthful shades. I've tried the blushes and eye shadows before but didn't find much difference between them and the cheaper drug store brands. I've also used the Studio Select foundation which was pretty good but a bit too heavy. Overall though, the only thing I buy from MAC is the concealer and lipsticks. With regards to this branch, it's always so packed and it always takes ages to get someone to help you. I didn't find the staff very helpful anyway, so I usually just choose things on my own without asking. There is just so many types of foundations and concealers that sometimes it can be so confusing, so it would be great if the staff were a little bit more helpful. However, there has been numerous times where my shade or the colour I wanted was sold out. I'd say it's best to avoid the busy weekends, especially Saturday afternoons where it's jam packed! But this is probably the only counter where it's safe to browse without being attacked my sales assistants! My two star reduction is for 1. Staff not very helpful and kind of slow, 2. Out of stock too often.

The best salon to get your hair colour and hair treatments done (they have a good variety to choose…read morefrom). Not only it is very cozy and chilled atmosphere in the salon from the moment you step in, all the staff here are so friendly and welcoming. I haven't had such a good balayage in years, especially struggled finding good colorists in Dublin. After multiple disappointing experiences, I am so glad I found this place. You never feel rushed for another client, like it happens in many salons, be ready to spend 6-7 hrs in the salon if you need color and treatment but at the end it is so worth it! And those massage chairs while they wash and massage your head, feel like heaven

Wow, I am in love with this place!…read more I had my hair and makeup done for a vintage modelling gig on Sunday, and had mentioned to a few friends before hand how I hate letting other people do either for me, but I am well and truly over that after LOVING how I looked leaving. They specialise in vintage looks, anything from the 20s-70s, and my hair was a real highlight for mean intricate 40s roll and up-do, and something I fear I will never be able to recreate for myself. I am afraid I don't know their prices but if you don't have to sell a kidney to afford a trip in here on a special occasion I would consider it worth it!

This was my first time here and I went on the weight of Noel being there. He's only been with them…read morea few weeks but he is thrilled and I'm just happy that I found him again - finding a stylist that gets your inability to do anything with hair and then tailor that accordingly into something good is really a gift. Very spacious inside and everyone is extremely friendly in a genuine way. All the staff seem to get on so well. Noel said that they teach classes there and I believe that you can get makeup classes too. My hair wash was so relaxing and everyone made me feel very spoilt which is something that you have to make time out for yourself every month! Highly recommend here if you want a great cut and of course a great laugh if you ask for Noel.

Shortly after they hung my coat, I was whisked downstairs where my hair was assessed and fawned over by the head teacher & 5 students - intense! During the 2 1/2 hours it took for my hair to be finished (to be expected from a student cut - the last time I got a student cut at another place it took 4 hours!), the teacher was quite watchful and willing to step in at places, which put me at ease. In the end, I left with a really lovely cut & every intention of returning again. Good vibes.

Are we in America or Ireland?!…read more On first entering LA College of Creative Arts I was pretty impressed at how well finished and sleek the entire building looked, gleaming stairs, rooms filled with state of the art iMacs and glass walls everywhere really made me feel like I was in Los Angeles and not just off Grafton Street in Dublin! I did not actually attend the college to do a course or to sit a class, I was there to paint a mural in their reception area so was able to view the place with slightly different eyes. Everyone I encountered met me with a friendly hello and a smile, all the students seemed to be enjoying themselves hugely despite the blistering 28 degree sunshine outside! As I painted the mural there were a few special effects makeup filled faced poking out of doorways to see what was going on. I was very impressed with the work from the students and was briefly filled in by the Head of Education, Marie-Therese, about the broad range of courses on offer at the college. It was a pleasure to work with the guys from LA College of Creative Arts and I am already looking for a reason to go back and say hi!

I opted for the Essential Manicure, which covers everything a US mani normally comes with - massage, cuticle care, file, polish and shine. I couldn't quite find the shade I wanted and kept saying, "A slightly redder, lighter oxblood" so Lien pulled out a few shades and tested a few on my nails. She also suggested making our own shade by doing a red base with a darker top... And she nailed it! (Heh) I would have never thought of it and it sounds silly to get so excited but I've just never had anyone nail this color before! (Yay all the puns!) I love my nails and will definitely come back to see Lien again before I leave. :)
