Yep. I must be crazy.
Well, at least that's what everyone thought when they walked by the line I waited patiently in.
For FOUR hours.
You heard me right.
I waiting in line for four hours for the grand opening of the NYX Mall of America store. Can you believe I waited four hours to spend my money? What were they giving away? Free makeup, a shopping spree?
Not exactly. Each person in line got a lip-shaped make up bag, and a scratch off ticket that could be worth something. I got $5 off of a $25 purchase. That's it. Part of me wanted to jet as soon as I got the gift, but I figured I would stay since I waited that long. Fifteen minutes later, I made my purchase and was soo ready to go.
All that time and I didn't manage to take one picture. My feet and legs were screaming at me so yeah, sorry there's no pictures.
While in line, I got the chance to hang out with my niece and daughter and we talked about make up and drama. You know, girl stuff.
It was fun. Well I guess it was fun. I wish my body felt the same way.
I guess I'm disappointed because there was a media event the night before that I didn't know about. Not sure why they didn't contact me. I love going to those type of things. Plus, I'm a beauty blogger so...
An-T-ways,

An-T-ways,
Here's what I purchased at the NYX Mall of America grand opening event. NYX Lip Lingerie, NYX Eye Lingerie, NYX Butter Gloss, and NYX Dark Circle Concealer.
Did I mention I stood in line for four hours?
Have you ever waited in line for something like this?
Nix mall of America had many great buys I am not sure if I would wait in line for an hour unless it was something I needed bad at a reasonable price.
ReplyDeleteWell you really wouldn't have wanted to wait four hours then lol.
DeleteGood bless you! I wish I had that kind of patience. I would have walked past a line like that like i never meant to go there in the first place. LOL. I am glad you enjoyed and got what you wanted though, in the end, that is all that really matters! :)
ReplyDeleteI did but looking back, I would have kept walking too!
DeleteGirl you have some patience! lol That's a really cute bag though.
ReplyDeleteThanks! It's cute but not that cute.
DeleteSounds like when folks line up for Jordans. That is cool though. I will have to make my way there I like their products.
ReplyDeleteI love their products too, but I really could have just went another day.
DeleteWhat a shame you waited in line all that time and was disappointed. Hope you happy with the make up at least. I'm so not the waiting in line type. LOL
ReplyDeleteSometimes I wait in line for free movies, but nothing like this.
DeleteOMG, four hours. Girl you are totally dedicated. I would need to use the bathroom, sit down and I wouldn't be fun to be around. lol
ReplyDeleteLol. Girl, I was all kinds of hangry in that line.
DeleteWowsers! You lost me at four hours lol. I've never stood in line for anything that long. I think the longest line i stood in with my kids was at Hershey Park for a new ride and we were in line nearly 2 hrs. Had I known, we would've never waited that long. lol
ReplyDeleteThis was a first for me too. If they had of told me I would have skipped it.
DeleteFour hours, lol that's a long time. I wish we had a NYX store here in Michigan.
ReplyDeleteIt is isn't it? Next time, I'm getting on that Media list fo sho!
DeleteThat's a long time, but the fellowship with the family was time well spent for you! I would love to visit the Mall of America!

ReplyDeleteI've waited in line for things, but girl, not for no 4 hours!!!! Bless your heart! That's what I call a true beauty fan. #ProductReviewParty
