Invu

cheap shit products you can find at the flea market owned by some Korean lady and overpriced for the quality. I’ve been to the flea market long enough to know what kind of products they carry. my uncle use to own a wholesale shop in Santa rosa and they also sell products you’ll see at the flea market. even the jewelry is low quality, easy to break. you want high quality and decent price? target or walgreens.

WARNING — STAY AWAY FROM THIS SCAMMER AND ANTI-​VIETNAMESE SHOP!!!
OMG!!! The owner here will scam you. I bought a necklace here that has a 20% off tag and when I brought it to the counter, the yappy owner here only took off 10%. I noticed it after I paid for the item and looked at the receipt. I asked her why is it 10% when on the label it says 20% off? She said I give you only 10% off. I was like WTF???
Not to mentioned, she asked me what country I’m from and I told her that I’m Vietnamese. She said, «I’m sorry honey, I don’t like Vietnamese. They are small people, loud, noisy and ughhh, I don’t know».

Good selection of ladies accessories. My wife likes to come here sometimes to by Korean costume jewelry (necklace and earrings) to match her Indian suits and saris. Prices seem to have risen over the years.

When I got my confirmation email to attend the Unilocal Molto Italiano Masquerade Partaaay, the search was on for the right outfit. I initially thought of renting a costume but ended up just using my black dress and some accessories to put together. So my list looked like this:
1. Mask — to cover my face… d’oh?
2. Tutu — to make my dress puffy
3. Satin gloves– to hide my old ugly nail polish
4. Black Stockings — to cover my cellulite! bwahahaa
I ended up getting the first 2 in this store. They do have different styles of Tutu. A short and long one. The long one was priced at $ 29.99 but the lady told me that she will give me 30% off of it. The masks has varying prices as well depending on how intricate the design is and how many chicken they killed for the feathers they used on it??? :P It can go from $ 16.99 — $ 29.99 and they take 20% off.
We purchased 2 masks and a tutu and only got 20% off and not 30% as what was promised. The lady said the person who helped us is new and doesn’t know that they can only go up to 20. We didn’t argue anymore and just paid for it. They have all kinds of hair accessories including Tiaras and wigs.
3 days after, we found out that Party City has different kinds of mask and tutu as well and waaaayyy CHEAPER than what this store sells. *smacks forehead*
PS
ALL SALES ARE FINAL HERE!

I went to the great mall. and stumbled upon INVU. the store had a pretty good selection of Products was impressed with the sales lady. her name is Esther. she was very helpful. HyeIm I think is the manager. she and Esther made shopping experience a pleasure. I will be going back to there store when i need to purchase other items… Michael J.

Some accessories there caught my eyes easily and they were cheap, also on 20% discount at the time. On the other hand it could mean the tradeoff with quality.
I bought a bracelet with two leather lines clipped on both ends, it looked all fine with the tag — probably the defect was covered by the tag. Upon my first attempt to wear it, just after taking it off from the tag and detach the ends, the end of one line broke off from the clip end.
I was not aware of the return policy at that time so I called and found out it was all final sale. It was a few bucks of loss, not a big deal, but it was dangerous for their items to look fine but broken inside.

I came here after visiting «Amuse» across the way. Originally went to Amuse because one review on Unilocal said they had colored lenses… but as of today, they did not… Luckily I spotted «INVU» on my way out of Amuse disappointed.
Walked in and saw some nice wigs along the wall, and passed by some cute wooden earrings for $ 1.99 — swooped me 2 pairs of those! Also saw some NYX products… I didn’t buy any since I just spent like $ 40 on NYX stuff from Amuse.
At the register I saw a glass (maybe plastic?) case filled with boxes of colored lenses… They had regular colored lenses and circle lenses… in every color possible… for $ 15 a pair. Score :)
I swooped a pair of «Golden Honey» (the Korean lady said it was popular), and a pair of the blue circle lenses, The blue ones suck… I’m asian, with «dark brown» eyes (black lol) — she said they would show up, but I just look like an alien with extremely BLACK eyes… You can only see the blue when I’m in natural sunlight. The golden honey’s, however, look sexy as hell… so yeah, minus 1 star for selling me lenses that she guaranteed would show, but didn’t.

This was a great experience, they were very helpful and knowledgeable. They did not make us buy a wig cap and we found a perfect wig which matches my wife’s hair perfectly. Very good service and we bought the one that looked perfect on her. The human hair wig is just so much like my wife’s own hair, it is unreal.
Parking was a pain but the great mall is always busy. The location is near Old Navy.

If you feel like Forever 21 is robbing you of jewelry. This place is the next best thing for you’re fashion jewelry fix. I like really like the staff of this place more then willing to help you out. I wish they can fine tune the taste in jewelry also. Be more current on it. Then they would get an extra star. They also sell hair goods and some accessories as well. This place does not bug me one bit.

This place is like a little costume accessory store. They have a wallfull of tights/​leggings/​fishnets in colors that look like they belong at the costume shop, such as fishnets with bows at the top, kneehigh chainlink socks, and neon and white striped socks. Of course, there’s also the standard black tight, but I’d buy it elsewhere for cheaper. They also have wallfulls of hair clips, necklaces, and other plastic items. I like how they have ties though, but they’re pretty expensive – $ 9 for a solid colored one. They’ve also got makeup from imported brands and pens and whatnot. I only come here for the cool tights and the occasional fun piece of jewelry.

I will never go to this place EVER again and would recommend you don’t either! I wanted to try on wigs, and in order to do so they made me buy a wig cap, which I did with no problem. After I tried on a few, and took pictures so I can get an idea of how I look with it on, then some worker turned to me and said I couldn’t take pictures, however there was no sign posting that and i even informed her of that.
After being told not to take pictures, another worker assumed I was only trying on wigs for color purposes and asked my sister (whom was buying something at the time) if that was true and if so, I couldn’t try them on!
I confronted the lady and told her that I might buy a wig if I like it, but it shouldnt matter because I did as they said earlier and purchased the wig cap as they requested.
After that, I asked her to try on another wig and they said I couldn’t now because the particular wig was for a manaquine. Funny how the story changes.
They are full of crap because they were assuming I wasn’t buying anything so now they weren’t going to help me! I asked fit a business card and the managers name and she said she couldn’t give it to me!!! Ok, awful place with rude Workers!!!
They just want you to buy something and are not helpful in anyway, shape or form!!!

This place is located across from Amuse (which is also another accessories store). Nice store with lots of accessories. I only shop here when I can’t find what I want at Amuse because this place charges more for the same/​similar items that Amuse has.

This place saved me trip to the local drugstore. I was looking for false eyelashes on Halloween and Daiso didn’t care any! This place had them – strangely enough after a shady lady said they sold out. The other lady at the counter pointed me in the right direction. They had several types to choose from! They also had the glue for $ 2 that was super cheap.
I eyed the tutus in the window and asked shady lady about taking a look at it. She said I could look at it from the window, and she would only take it out if I was going to buy it. Hella shady! No tutu this time, but they have great deals here if you’re in a hurry. I also got fishnet stockings here for really cheap. maybe $ 3 – 6? That’s eyelashes, eyelash glue and stockings all in one stop. I’ve also bought the sticky bras here that are $ 7-​$ 12. They have wigs and other random items like Hello Kitty correction tape. Just watch out for the shady lady.

The Korean lady working here was nice. She saw I was grabbing a bunch of NYX lipsticks and she came and gave me a little shopping basket. Perhaps it’s because she didn’t want to have to worry about me stealing any lipstick, or perhaps (as I’d like to think of it) she was just being kind! After all she did smile at me when giving it to me. This place rocks because they have NYX products which is really hard to find at any store (aside from ULTA). And the BEST thing is that they have some wrapped from warehouse items. And if some items aren’t enclosed in tight plastic with perforated edges the owner puts tape around the lipstick to prevent anyone from opening it. (Although I don’t buy open or taped lipstick, it’s a nice gesture. I only buy straight from the website or with the sealed plastic with perforated edges.) The only things I could complain about it their selection is sooo small. They had no pink or red lipsticks. Seems like they need to stock up because they only had one shade of eyeshadow trio pallets and only spilled pigments there for .99 cents. They are cheaper than Amuse from across the hall, but they don’t have nearly the selection. I also wish they’d have sales because at ULTA you could get BOGO sales.

This is a great little shop located in the Great Mall. If you’re looking for some great accessories you should come here. This store offers array of different things. From wigs, hair accessories, bracelets, earrings, color contacts, & purses. I can go on and on and on. Come check it out.

I like coming here to check out Asian Bling… they have some nice accessories that you dont see other places. The last time I got this cute phone charm with glass slippers and big pearls on them. I have also come here to get hair accessories and NYX makeup. It’s definitely geared toward middle school to high school girls but I like the variety it provides.

this place totally entertained me. it’s packed with cheap beauty products, and a bunch of stuff i’ve never seen anywhere else. it’s across the hall from amuse, and i expected it to be similar in selection, but it’s much better. some of the jewelry i’d actually wear.
like jennifer said, it’s like claires, but a bit more asian, and a lot skankier.
they have hella wigs, rubber bra-​padding, booty-​girdles and padded undies to give you a fake ass. fishnet gloves, coin purses, tons of jewelry. colored contacts (no prescription) are 20 $, 40 $ for white, black or neon colored.

If you were ever a fan of Claire’s when you were younger you will feel right at home in Invu. This store is packed with jewelry and hair accessories, some cute others not so much. I’m not going to lie there is a lot of tacky crap in here, your job is to sift through it to find the cute stuff. Prices are pretty reasonable I bought a few hair pins for about $ 2-​$ 3 each, and some cute headbands too. My find of the day were the Hello Kitty emergency tins filled with HK band-​aids.
