I should have a punch card! They also have wonderful perfumes and oils- a few of my favorite scents include sandalwood, palo santo, coconut, and patchouli.

This location is home to several black/brown and LGBTQ+ creative business owners with over 25 local brands represented. I stopped by on Small Business Saturday and I really appreciated the efforts they are taking to provide a safe in-person shopping experience. They ask that you wear a mask and clean your hands upon entry (they have a sanitation station at the main entrance). They also have 'touchless shopping' signs throughout to remind shoppers to look with their eyes unless they're serious about purchasing an item. The represented brands range from clothing apparel to accessories and jewelry. They also have holistic care brands along with candles and other fragrances. If you're looking to support local, then you need to make a visit to the Bronzeville Collective!

They have everything from crystal candles, gemstones, apparel, and lots of handcrafted jewelry. The atmosphere is funky, eclectic and oh so welcoming. Be ready to be stopped upon entering and nicely asked to use some hand-sanitizer. We weren't ready for that but had zero qualms about the request. There is also signage around the store calling for "touchless shopping" and everyone is quick to help upon request. It also looked like there were several orders waiting to be picked up, curb-side style. Might be worth looking into if you still aren't a fan of shopping in a brick and mortar just yet. Side note/bonus - a lot of the retailers in this space are local small businesses of color AND this shop is located directly across the America's Black Holocaust Museum.

I think my experience at Sephora is always very dependent on the associate who helps me. Last week,…read moreStephanie helped me out, and mad shout out to her! I had a whole list of products I needed to test out for color for the upcoming VIB sale and personal haul. Stephanie never acted annoyed, but was friendly, attentive and terrific through the whole process. We had some issues coming up with a color match for foundation. The products that I wanted to try out were not in the store, and the color iq/match on the Sephora system was throwing out some really weird colors for my skin. In the end, we had to try a different brand foundation to try and see if that would be color matched to another product, but the app just didn't want to work. I may just have to purchase the foundation in different colors and return what doesn't work. Meanwhile, lighting inside the Sephora seems to be very nice and bright, but somehow throws everything off. Stephanie knew the best spot in the store where we could check, and we did find a shade that worked. Unfortunately, after coming home and looking in natural light, the color was off slightly. After trying some of the other items on my list, when an item wasn't to my liking or it didn't have a color that I liked, Stephanie was very good at suggesting other brands (other than Benefit, which I've been steered to many, many times in the past), ones that I actually liked upon trying. But she wasn't pushy and the suggestions only came once she saw I was disappointed with the ones I was working with already. So even though Sephora didn't have the items I really wanted on stock (what happens when you research on YouTube and want all the items on beauty influencers' go get list), I was happy to have gotten to try most of the colors and figuring out what does and doesn't work for me. Then I went to look at some skincare products. Now, makeup I usually need help with. Skincare, I don't. I have very finicky skin, which likes to do its own thing. I also use prescription creams that don't work with a lot of exfoliating products out there. I've also tried SO MANY skin care products because of all the problems I have. So I'm good left alone in the skincare section, looking at the ingredients and doing the "feel" test on my own. So when associates approach me and ask if they can help, I thank them and tell them I'm really ok. Personal pet peeves: 1. when an associate steers me away from a brand I'm looking at and directs me to another brand. 2. when I try the other brand and don't like, but the associate tells me it's great anyway 3. when the associate knows less about makeup than me (believe me, I don't know much, and what I learned is from YouTube) but acts like they know what's best for my skin There was this one associate who wanted to be really pushy though, and pretty much made me come with her to check out a Drunk Elephant product while I was looking at some of the newer products on the Dermalogica line. Wanting to be polite, and hope I was wrong and would get a great recommendation, I did give the product she wanted me to try a try. But when I told her that the mask felt more like moisturizer, she looked dubiously at me and said, "well, you can lather more on. I only gave you a little bit to try". Um. No. Anyway, not sure why she wanted to push that product on me so much. But after I told her I prefer the texture of Summer Friday's JetLag, she looked blank and had no idea what product I was talking about. That told me she didn't really know much about the products she was selling. I thanked her and went on to my own research. But the experience doesn't sit right with me somehow.
