Dulcet & Bella Makeup Bar

I was excited to learn about this cool offer from Groupon, when a friend of mine invited me to a makeup party here. For about $ 25 + tip we would receive a facial or eyelash extension, makeover, snacks, drinks and a goody bag. When we walked into this place we were slightly confused about how they would fit us all into this tiny space of sinks and counter space.
We waited outside (literally because it was too small) for about 25 minutes when my friend knocked on the glass to ask about us coming
they were looking at a beauty magazine they said it would be just one moment. FInally we were able to come in to start the makeovers! Soon after our first friend received a facial we were greeted by the «assistant» who came in with bottles of white wine (wahoo!) and Harris Teeter cupcakes. Then it went all downhill from here.
I have to say that the ladies running the show were extremely sweet, friendly and entertaining. Unfortunately though after our first friend received her new makeover we were all a little hesitant to be the next in the chair. Every girl’s makeup was overly caked on with little thought into our different skintone colors. The night turned from excitement to a four hour joke (that is how long it took us to get through this mistaken night).
I started to feel bad after the third girl when directly from the makeup chair to the bathroom to wash off the makeup that was just applied. I am not quite sure if these ladies really thought we looked good or were just trying to make it through the long night.
I’m going to wrap-​it-​up by saying that after my makeover I couldn’t even pretend to smile and look satisfied I had to let the lady know that it was just way too much and of course she was very nice to take some of it off. Oh I forgot… we did not receive a goody bag at the end of the night… it was probably for the best.
WIthout reservation I would highly recommend not putting forth any money to this place for a makeup or facial unless it is a donation for pure comedic entertainment.
