Il Makiage Reviews Summary

The company enjoys a generally positive reputation, with many customers praising the quality and effectiveness of its products, particularly in terms of skin care and makeup performance. Quick delivery and effective customer service interactions were frequently highlighted as strengths. However, concerns emerged regarding the ordering process, particularly issues with auto-renewals and unclear promotional offers that led to unintended charges. Additionally, some customers expressed frustration over the difficulty in managing subscriptions and the perceived lack of transparency in the purchasing process. Overall, while product satisfaction is high, improvements in customer communication and order management could enhance the overall experience.

Must haves
November 9, 2022

Whether it's a light application of makeup or a full out glamorous look I know I can count on Il Makiage to look my best. All their products are amazing but their foundation and concealer are must haves in my cosmetic kit!

Covered with LOVE!
November 9, 2022

This has been a wonderful personal experience. One on one care, with communication. They want to know how I feel and if the product works! IT DOES! The foundation is flawless and the haircare (SPOILEDCHILD) is satisfying!

User Friendly Site
November 9, 2022

Its very easy to navigate thru the site. They have a variety of products to choose from. Not going to lie, the complexion test had me nervous. I wasn't sure if it would actually work but when I got it in the mail, it matched perfectly. I just ordered another bottle of foundation and concealer =, also excited to try their mascara. Looking forward to trying some of their other products as well!

Amazing!
November 9, 2022

Since I've been buying off of IL Makiage I will never go back to the other brands I've used. I've been a customer since 2020. I get amazing compliments on my makeup. I no longer have to mix my foundation to get the right tone. You girls always make sure to remind me to stock up. I get an email to see how I'm going and I get emails on new products. The freebies and discounts are the best. Love! Love! IL makiage
I've recommended this brand to all my clients and people who ask me what I use.

New attitude
November 9, 2022

Hello,
I came across the ad on Facebook and thought, self you need this. But as soon as I ordered my mind had changed, how are they going to be able to match my skin tone. So I immediately contacted customer service who replied right back an ensured me that I would not be charged during the trial period. Within a few days I received my order and let me tell you that it was a perfect match. Thank you for giving this 55+ a new attitude. Oh I tried right after I opened the package.

Y'all didn't tell me until after I purchased the product, that was FREE but only had to charge for shipping, that if I didn't return it it'd be the full $45 price! Wtf

Fabulous!
November 9, 2022

Although, I did let the company know I was not happy with my brow pencil, how it came off to quickly. The company understood and sent me a free $50 eGift card. Which I did use to buy another product. I also want to mention, I just love, love, love the foundation I will never use anything else.
Thank you

Wonderful Makeup but...
December 9, 2022

I went onto the site to purchase foundation. Have the shade I need, go to checkout and can't checkout without signing up for auto replenishment! What? If I wanted to do that it should be MY CHOICE, not the program! I love the foundation... get high compliments... but I can't check out unless I sign up for the auto program? Wrong! Fix that... now having said that: Il Makiage has superior foundation - goes on wonderfully and easily... no streaking, excellent coverage, never changes color or streaks, feels light and smooth and lasts ALL DAY LONG...

Hi Betty! So sorry you had an issue! You absolutely don’t need to sign up for auto-replenishment! To place a one time only purchase, just don’t select the auto-replenishment option in checkout.

... DON'T BE NERVOUS! I was excited to get help finding the right shade for me. I took the quiz and researched the company. I was still nervous about an online order. I signed up for the try before you buy. When I got my product I thought it was too light. It didn't smooth my skin as I wanted. I ended up returning it. This company reached out to me and helped me understand what went wrong. I took the quiz a few more times and compared the results and decided on the right color ( a different one than before) I loved the long lasting wear the first one provided and they suggested I try a primer to help smooth my skin and also to use a brush to apply( which I got for free!) I love the look a primer gives the texture of my skin and I am so excited to try my new color. They went over and above to help me and make sure I ended up with something I would love! I appreciate the amazing customer service and that they cared how I felt about their company and products. They had so many options and I believe everyone will find something they love. I recommended this to my mother( an 80 year old cosmetologist) to help her find something to cover redness and add some luminous color to her skin... she loves it! Thank you! I will continue to recommend this company and continue to try new products offered! Next on my list... eyeshadow!

Was Charged Full Price
December 8, 2022

This would have been my first time wanting to try this product but instead was charged the full price instead. I've sent an email since there was no contact number to request a full refund.
Many thanks!

Hi Casey! Let me explain what happened -- a pre-authorization was placed on your card (as stated at check-out). Not to worry, this isn't a charge! Pre-authorization is a fraud prevention method used by financial institutions to guarantee the safety of certain transactions. A pre-authorization, or a temporary hold, simply authorizes the card, the funds are still in your account and will not be transferred to us unless you choose to keep the product. We can't refund the preauthorization as the funds were never actually withdrawn from your account, but I can tell you that preauthorization will fall off / disappear (this normally happens within 4 days from the order). You will not be charged for the full price unless you keep the product(s).

Excellent customer service
November 8, 2022

I am so pleased with how above and beyond they went for me. The color I ordered was slightly to dark, and outside of the return window. But that did not stop them from sending me another shade and a bonus e-card. Absolutely amazing customer service.

A+ selection and customer service
November 8, 2022

I have ordered about 10 times from Il Makiage. I have a couple of items on a subscription too. So far I have only had positive experiences and loved my products. I did get something that was not a good color match for me and I was able to trade it out very easily for the right color. Highly recommend.

Sales Tactics
December 8, 2022

I felt pressured to purchase more than just the tester size at the last page. Couldn't get out of skip the last page which was showing an addition item for $40.00.
Not what I wanted so I just closed the site. From security standpoint that didn't feel safe to me.
