Ever had a bad experience on MUA???

Well, I'll warn you ahead of time that this blog is somewhat of a rant.

Now, don't get me wrong, I do understand that MUA (or fully known as "Make Up Alley") is a place that just allows people to post the make up that they don't want, and request an exchange with someone that has something you do want, at your own risk. I understand. But what I can't understand is why people pretend to be nice and promise to send you products, just so that they can steal your stuff and then *POOF* vanish. <-That right there, was my very first experience on MUA. I sent this person called "Monique" a brand new MAC Honey Salve and a brand new MAC Funtabulous Dazzleglass. My two back-ups are now gone, and I am so torn about that.

I would go on there daily, and message her/him (could be a him, right? IDK) saying that I sent the package out and it should arrive soon. She/he would say the same thing. Soon after, she/he DELETED THE ACCOUNT without even saying anything to me!

The worst part is how I found out about it, which is very amusing now that it has passed... Someone thought that I was "Monique" and thus was threatening to report me, blah, blah, blah. That really got me fired up, because not only was I cheated upon, but now threatened and accused by someone else...

*Breathes in deep and Exhales*

Of course, I cried. I don't work well under that kind of pressure. Though luckily, my youtube account is what actually saved me, haha. I told that person to basically ask me on YT, if they were so persistent on believing I was someone else. =) So TY YT!!

A little later I got my first token from someone else, which I got excited about! *Dorky moment* =D Now others can actually see that I'm trustworthy, and that I don't do that kind of crap to others.

So here is my new permanent rule: I will never exchange a product to person that doesn't have any positive feedback. It just seems safer that way. I advise all you lovely people to do the same!

Now comes my question to you: Has this or something like it, ever happened to you before?

I'd like to know about it. It feels good to just rant sometimes.

My mom got me this awesome color. =)

Today my mom knew I was having a bad day, so she got me this awesome nail polish to cheer me up. The color is called 'Turned Up Turquoise' and it's a Neon color. This is my first time using China Glaze nail polish, so I'll let you guys know what I think. I've always used OPI.

I must admit that I was a little bit freaked out when the polish went matte on my fingernail. I didn't know that the Neon colors do that. Even now I don't understand why it would, but that's ok. I just put some clear polish on top, and that did the trick to make them nice and shiny! So here is the picture. It's a fabulous color, so I thought I'd share. =)
