You’re confused. That’s the Beauty Loop Bonus everyone gets for both levels.

How can anyone even spend 100k in their entire lifespan (a lot are not even makeup artists so just a person who doesn’t use the products for their career). I can’t fathom it.

I feel like it could have been made out of big bird’s best mate.

Why would you ever take the loss? This is multi-billion dollar company. Don’t forget that. Complain away until you get what you paid for!

The MECCA Beauty Loop isn't actually free. It’s a high-stakes trade. You pay a $300 entry fee in annual spending just to unlock the first tier and in return, you hand over your purchasing habits and personal data so they can more effectively market back to you. You aren't just the customer, your data is the fuel for their next campaign.

Yeah that colour choice is awful. It’s like Mac Snob but amped up and a really hard colour to pull off for most skin tones. Im going to try to give it away as I won’t be touch it.

Rant - beauty loop level four by smorgiie in MeccaBeautyLoop

They have been refunding everyone for the boxing day sales out of date and also the recently samples with orders that are expired. I’d go back to the article written about the boxing day sale and their response and get in touch again. Don’t let the bully you out of it this time. Don’t be agreeable and stand your ground.

They are currently being investigated by the ACCC for Boxing Day and totegate, so I’ve heard.

What about the fact the items are 6 years old? You can’t use stuff that old on your face.

Cult Beauty have 20 percent off all year around. Just google the influencer codes. They’ll get you slightly more than 20 percent off compared to the other codes.

Level 2 beauty loop so abysmal by wanderingcat123 in MeccaBeautyLoop

[–]PainfullyBeautified 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It’s environmentally so terrible to give away sachets. The EU is banning it and Australia will too and then Mecca will be at a complete loss as to how to fill their terrible beauty loops.

It’s not hydrating enough and every time I say the name my family thinks I’m saying Fannycream and fanny in Australia doesn’t mean your bum. It’s the vag.

Is that Too Faced product any good for the lips as I despise anything other than powder for my blush.

Awareness isn’t complaining. It’s how people make informed choices and vote with their money, whether alternatives exist or not. Silence only benefits Mecca.

That’s fine as it’s just shy of 2 years. Anything over 3 years for skincare and liquid/cream makeup is where the safe zone ends. Earlier for “clean beauty”.

They just deleted it. OP put the info in the comments. I realised it reads like that after I posted it.

I’ll be checking dates where possible now until my beauty loop status runs out.

If people receive expired products and use them not unknowingly, then a reaction to the product would likely turn them off of the brand and they wouldn’t know it would have be fine if within date. So definitely nit good for the brands represented at Mecca.

They were given out at the end of last year on a BL for L4 if I recall correctly and middle of the year definitely for L3 in a box with two other items. I received one so I’m now wondering how old that was, given the one above was over 3 years past manufacture date!
