    Mecca Maxima, the monster version of Mecca Cosmetica, has opened in Carindale and I couldn't be…read moremore delighted. The store brings a range of hip and brilliant cosmetics and skin care products like Kit, Stila, Smashbox, NARS, Mario Badescu and Too Faced to the 'burbs, so I no longer have to make a trek into the city (or shop online without the opportunity to cover my hand in testers) to get my killer make-up fix. I dropped in to Mecca for the first time recently when I decided to be indulgently lazy and see if I could get my face done up for an event that night. I didn't have a booking, but they managed to squeeze me in. Apart from the girl who reacted with a bit of a "1-2-3 NOT ME" attitude when I asked about a makeover, the girls at Mecca Maxima Carindale are all really friendly and personable - a couple of them kept coming over to check up on my "work in progress", and I was given a bottle of delicious Schweppes Agrum to drink while I was in the chair. When I'd first entered the store I was greeted warmly by one girl in particular, and I complimented her awesome eyebrows. She ended up being my make-up artist, so I was more than happy with how my eyebrows turned out! We had a great time and she did an excellent job with my insane eyeshadow. The deal with in-store makeovers is that you then have to spend a minimum of $90 on any product/s. I was more than happy to do that, picking up a couple of the products that Emily had used on me - if anyone sees me out and about in the next few weeks, I'll probably be wearing a Stila sparkle liquid eyeliner because I just about lost my mind over how brilliant they are. So I guess the deal works in reverse, too - if you go into Mecca Maxima and spend over $90, do yourself a favour and see if they can fit you in for a makeover while you're there! Or if you have plans to do a bit of spending, call ahead and book in to get done over while you're in there. It was a heap of fun, I felt like a bombshell all night, and I have some shiny new products that I know do a good job.

    I've got mixed feelings for this place--I've come here three times for my three lobe piercings and…read morehave had a different experience each time. The first time was good, though I was seven so don't really remember much, just that everyone was quite friendly. My second time was not so great--the lady who pierced me had to redot my ears several times and they still ended up being uneven. Also the gun got stuck in my ear on an angle so she had to fiddle with it and pull it out; it was painful and my ears were also throbbing for hours after. My third time was amazing though--the lady was clean and professional, friendly, and only had to dot my ears once. When she pierced it was nice and clean; straight and just a quick in-and-out, and she somehow managed to align it to make the muck-up of the second piercing look good. No pain during or after the piercing either. Something consistent with this company though is the good customer service--the staff build a great relationship with the customers; they are always really nice to you and do their best to make sure you feel good and comfortable.

    A piercer there named alex absolutely FUCKED UP my piercing. She pierced my second ear piercings…read moreway too close to my firsts to the point where i cant even wear studs in both holes without them literally sitting on top of each other and by the way this BULLSHIT was NOT worth $30 for the piercing WITH A GUN plus another $10 for the shittest studs i could have ever been given which literally grinded into my skin causing it to bleed. In conclusion this was the worst piercing experience ive ever had and please just go to a professional and pay $80 instead of risking infection for a shitty and fucked up piercing.

    TINY MAKEUP. ALL THE TINY MAKEUP. After finding myself caught in the Mecca Maxima airport vortex…read morewhile waiting for a filght I've convinced myself you could leave all your cosmetics at home and find yourself a travel face just from the mini products the new airport (Virgin terminal) Mecca Maxima. Why go full-size when we all know we never use up mascara or hit pan on the Hourglass full-size ambient lighting powder you got after watching a YouTube beauty guru sing glowingly about. But in all seriousness, the addition of Mecca at the domestic airport is a grand thing. Should you have forgotten any of your skincare / cosmetic accoutrement or if you've just gotten up at 4am for the first flight out and need a little pick me up, you know where to make a beeline for as soon as you clear security.

    I was waiting with a friend to board a flight last week and ended up binge spending here - but I…read morecouldn't not do it because not only is their product range quite impressive despite the moderate sized store, the lady who helped me was one of the most knowledgable and friendly people I'd had a shopping experience with in months. She was incredibly patient and helped me find a new mascara and compact foundation, and didn't push the limits of the budget I had given. Which was great because although I could have been easily persuaded, the rest of my pay period thanked me for not spending what I could have! She was able to tell me the details of everyone who tests on animals, who is certified cruelty free, the legal information regarding those labels and of course the other little facts regarding the lines that are not tested on animals except for their sale in China, which was really refreshing to hear. My previous experiences with Mecca stores hadn't ever been the best and I wish I remembered the name of my helper because she needs a raise. Thanks x100!

    Sure: Mecca has some hot competition on their toes with as ephors opening in Sydney this December,…read morebut for now, this is as good as it gets for us cosmetic loving dames and gents in Brisbane. Of course there's always that other shop, open 24/7 a.k.a the World Wide Web but you'll be pleased and/or surprised to note Mecca have recently dropped their prices quite heftily to fall in line with US prices. And they've always been generous with samples. As a dame with sensitive and often reactive skin, the ability to really test a product, be it makeup or skin care, before I buy is appreciated. Pair this with customer service from the staff that 9 times out if 10 goes above and beyond and it's a bricks and mortar store I'm more than happy to give my Monopoly money (read: paycheck) to. As Fleur pointed out the staff don't pounce straight away. They will ask but I've always found them to be respectful of my space once I say I'm just looking. Similarly, if you do need a hand they'll be ready! If you are to visit either of the Mecca's in the Mall, this is my pick. There's just a little more range than the Queens Plaza store.

    I went into the store a few weeks ago to do a makeup tutorial. It was my first time doing one and I…read moredidn't really quite know what to expect. I was helped by a lady named Mindy and at first, the tutorial was quite good and engaging. But later on, when I was struggling with my eyeliner, she snatched the brush out of my hand and started mocking me, proceeding to tell me that I was doing it wrong in a very frustrated and annoyed tone. I thought the point of the tutorial was to learn more about makeup and get a better feel for some of the products I don't have much experience with. I spent the rest of the time feeling embarrassed and stupid, especially after continuing her rude behaviour. It made me want to leave and ruined an experience I received as a gift and was relatively excited about. I was disappointed because friends who had done tutorials at other Mecca stores had been telling me how great tutorials were but that was really undermined by my experience.
