I totally agree with what you say about the experience being a lot more fun if MAs were more enthusiastic, I could have gotten a major haul today, with the stuff I tried on like swimming, humid, stars n'rockets and maybe a brush or two, but I just didn't feel like it. I really think the atmosphere, the whole vibe you get, is so important, and today I really didn't get good vibes. What I also don't understand is that there's some sort of applications process to work for MAC, and so why aren't there more talented artists that are like, say, Son_Risa, but in the UK? I actually have a good idea, which is to look at the MAs makeup, see if I like it, and then ask my question. Funnily enough, majority of MAs I saw today wore neutral colours, one wore glitter eyeliner, but nothing special. Darn, that should have been a sign already, but I guess I didn't think about it then. Well, as I said earlier, I'm going to go to the mac at hof in bank, try harvey nicks and convent garden again, and post a part two. And if I have mediocre experiences again, I think I'm going to have to visit the USA sometime soon
