I feel suckered - need some advice

In the future I would take the pressure off that you feel the need to buy immediately. Tell the SA that you need to walk around with the product(s) on your face, see them in all different kinds of light, that you never just purchase something the first time that you have tried it. Ask for a sample to take with you. No one should feel pressured to buy something the first time they have use a product.

It's good advice to do the above anyway. Who hasn't bought a cosmetic item and then discovered in the light of day that it looks completely different. I think the lighting in department stores is terrible for making good cosmetic decisions. Peggy
