I can't believe the literal epidemic of children that need to catch some hands 😂 I'm 27 & have three children, all girls (7,5,3) & I work so hard to keep it real & TEACH them how to carry themselves as young ladies. I don't live by the "do as I say not as I do" because that's borderline psychotic in my opinion. Do I believe in abuse? Absolutely not Do I believe in situational beat downs? .... Maybe 💀
@@keylimepxe lmfao I swear, I will never end up on a show like Maury taking about "I'm afraid of my 12 year old because they hit me blah blah blah" That's where the Situational beat down comes in 😂 Otherwise, despite the young ages of my daughters, we literally just talk to one another. I'm careful not to cross the line of where some parents are more of a friend but in a toxic way where there is no authority figure or respect. If I ask my daughters to do something & they don't want to, I ask why & I hear them out then they hear me out & once I tell them why, they have had no problem with doing whatever it is asked. I'm not a strict prude, so maybe that's why it works out along with me treating them as individuals with agency. I believe a major issue is parents playing these weird lying games with their kids & treating them like they aren't as mentally & emotionally capable as they actually are. On top of that, the weird cognitive dissonance of what I said before about the do as I say not as I do AND the blatant disrespect they dish out to the children. It's causing these kinds of issues that bleed on to the general public. It's so unfortunate. I wouldn't have dreamed of behaving the way we are seeing children of TEN behaving in stores... I honestly forsee situational violence when these children get older but it's only because their parents are setting them up for failure. Somebody at some point isn't going to put up with this behavior as they get closer to adulthood or even after they become of age. 💀
Yeah I've been in an ulta and there were these 2 girls (they both were like 8-9 years old 💀) and these little girls were making a HUGE mess in the drunk elephant section... And their mom was just on her phone and didn't care at all. These parents are just so brain dead 😥
At 10 years old I knew how to behave at a store, never ever would I have behaved this badly and if I had accidentally made a mess I would’ve asked a worker for help and apologized for said mess. My mom would have grounded me for misbehaving like this.
10 year old is old enough to go to a store alone, they are not that helpless. I agree they make a mess and all but I don't think it is because of the age, rather the way they were raised.
I work at a Crystal store and I’ve literally had to tell kids off for running around and picking up products and then rolling it on the floor while their mother stands there. I told a little girl off once for trying to put one in her mouth while her mother wasn’t looking and she just started crying and her mother didn’t do anything , I feel like parents want babies but then babies grow into kids and then they just give up and kind of go. Oh I have to actually raise it now.
And the worst part is, they say WE are the ones who don’t belong in Sephora. One time I heard a 10 year old girl with two of her friends talking about how everyone is over 35 and are too old to be using skincare. It makes me pissed, these preppy’s are extremely rude and disrespectful and think there better then everyone else, it just makes me pissed.
@@ShumiAi-l5chonestly no offense to the 10yr old preppy’s (who do that not all preppy do are rude or skincare or are rude and do skin care) they need to sit down and stop trashing on 30 yr olds who want to take care of themselves I’m ok with the skin care for yourselves at a young age but trashing on people messing up stores and hurting many people’s feelings is just wrong and disgusting to see I sorry that you had to witness that atrocity (sorry if there are spelling mistakes and grammar mistakes)
Exactly, and I coach little girls in basketball cheer to help out my church league and one of the 3rd graders came to practice after the Christmas break and told me about all the skincare she got. She doesnt even need it, her skin is fine and she is a 3rd grader!!!!!
as a younger gen z, i get terrified at these kids. my grandparents were always around, and i would never treat an adult like that 😭 i can’t even talk to my sisters friends with that amount of disrespect 😭
Most 10 year olds don't need this much skincare at all. Although, when I was their age, maybe a bit older, I had terrible acne and I didn't have any skincare other than face wash and some stuff from target. Never been to sephora.
i was litterly making magic potions from tooth paste and shampoo and i litterly used my moms cream and made the whole couch white- but these kids are litteraly putting on makeup! I dont put on makeup unless my parents tell me to if its a birthday or smth!
honestly they should have a "you break it, you buy it" policy and make the parents come in and pay for the destroyed products so they can finally teach their kid some manners :/
This used to happen. A girl in my school did this once and the store called her mom (they made her sit and give the phone number) sadly kods wouldnt give the phone number today cuzz they do not responr to authorities
Frr I went for the first time to a Sephora a couple months ago with my back then 16 year old friend just so she didn't have to go alone. I was so ashamed of being there. I, too, feel like I'm too young to enter to a Sephora, and these kids enter there like it's nothing 💀
My daughter goes into Sephora with me from time to time and has been telling me all about the "Sephora kids" for a week or so now. She talks about how disrespectful, wasteful, nasty and rude that behavior is. She's 10. This kind of behavior is 100% on the parents who have apparently never learned how to tell their precious little princesses NO.
Im around the same age and I have gone into Ulta barely even have asked anyone for help and even if I do I try not to bother anyone and I am nice to the worker and I rarely even try testers since sometimes I already know what shade, and what product I’m in there for. So these kids definitely where raised to get everything they wanted
compounded by diabolical rearing. To be frank, no parent should ever expose their children to social media (and the Internet in general) in the first place, let alone give them any pieces of electronics.
FYI: while it is part of a Sephora employee’s job to keep the store neat and tidy for customers, it is not their job to clean up after YOUR CHILDREN who shouldn’t even be there to begin with. That is not something they are meant to do. That isn’t even in the job description. There shouldn’t even be an argument for this.
Lol when I @crazystupidlovething worked at Ulta this lady let her baby grab a lipstick tester and smear it all over the floor my manager had to go up to the lady and tell her like hey watch ur child look at what they did 😩😩😢 lol then my coworker had to clean up the red smeared lipstick so glad they shut the location down but hate how they did it during the pandemic LmAo 🤣 they had us waiting thinking we were gonna come back
I am 11 years old and I get all my glosses, perfumes, powders, nail polishes and hydrating face masks, moisturizers, sunscreen and mascaras from sephora. I don't use drunk elephant for one, and everything I mentioned above is my extent of makeup. Kids younger than me playing with foundation is strange because at this age, youthful skin might get hurt using those. And I use the samples properly, so yk not all kids are bad only those who never got a smack and respect for people from their parents. I actually buy stuff by saving my allowance.
I honestly think it’s a parenting issue. Admittedly, I have an 11 year old sister who I on TH-cam shorts, and yes she enjoys makeup, but she would never demand expensive products, and has never been anywhere near a Sephora. She knows better than to destroy displays or mix products together. She asked for Heelys and stuffed animals and a silk for Christmas. THAT IS NORMAL PRE TEEN BEHAVIOR. the Sephora kids are spoiled brats 🤦🏼♀️
exactly as a person around that age i like makeup skincare but i don’t mess up stuff bro. it’s defo a parenting issue even if u have a device all ur life you should know thats not right
Exactly! My girls are 10 & 12 and got one drunk elephant product to share between them for Christmas (from their aunt, not me lol) but they are taking such good care of it. They clean the outside of it and all. They were grateful just to be allowed to have it even though they absolutely don't need it. They would NEVER go into a store and destroy things like this. It's awful. Their friends wouldn't either. I don't know where these kids come from. It's absolutely the parents fault.
My younger sis (10 years of age) has terrible acne we went to Sephora to get concealer by Make up by Mario.(She’s amazing at behaving) Shewas so nice to the lady at the desk I walked away for a couple minutes the worker kept complementing her and stated many times she was so nice I’m so lucky to have her as my sister.
I'm 10 as well and the only 'makeup' I use is lip balm/lip gloss. I honestly don't know why ppl my age are crazy like this-I once went to sephora for my mum and my sister and I saw this girl(about 9/10) was literally crying for a freakin drunk elephant AND glow recipe! I swear to god this crazy shit NEEDS to stop, I apologise for the behaviour these BRATS are doing😅
i know you didnt ask, and im not saying she doesnt already clean her face cause i know very well how persistant acne can be! if you would like, something that helped me lots with my cystic acne was cleansing twice when i do it, first to get gunk off of face from the day and the second i let sit for about a minute. if she cleanses this could help her a bit! Again not trying to be mean at all, i just like trying to help others who may struggle with acne. I would also suggest cetaphil for cleanser and moisterizer as its pretty inexpensive but works sooooo well. You dont have to listen to me by any means but if it means anything you can lhk that acne doesnt define her worth or beauty, its very normal and theres so many people who will back her up.
Of course it's mainly the parents, and influencers causing this. However I'm also quite disappointed in Sephora in the states. Why isn't the store saying "No. You can't do that"? Why isn't security in the malls throwing these children out for vandalism? Why aren't the stores locking these (expensive) products and testers behind cabinets until these children learn how to behave?!
So glad that Sephora isn't in my country after hearing this. I've never seen stuff like this happen when I go into a store that has make up and skin care products for testing.
I genuinely don't understand WHY that isn't whats happening - I can not fathom how the company isn't enabling policies to not allow them in without an adult. I might be a little crazy, but in this regard I swear its not my insanity, I remember stores used to do those kinds of policies ALL the time and it's never been deemed illegal or a violation/discrimination against anyone. There's a shop by my mom's house that to this day has policies that large purses aren't even allowed inside the store and have to be left at the register if you want to shop.
My sister used to work at Sephora and Ulta. The stories she would tell us when she would come home were crazy. One kid destroyed a $300 display including the makeup on it and also broke perfume testers too. These kids need to be stopped. Edit: thanks for the likes!
This is vandalism. Especially the candles. My granddaughter is 10 and I am trying to keep her on track for acting 10. I would never allow a 10-year old in a store alone and I would never let her destroy things like this. Never ever would I allow her to speak to an adult - or any person-that way. She likes make up but we don't allow her to wear it. She can use lip balm and her mom paints her nails at times. She got a Dr Teal's bath set for Christmas. She's happy with it. It's enough.
I was just looking at those candles the other day and almost choked on my coffee when I saw the price tag! 😯 I can't imagine acting that way at any age... I'm really, really scared to see what type of adults they will be 🤢😵😢
That sounds perfect. I don't think kids should be on social media at all. I can't believe how many parents allow their kids to be use tik tok and instagram with zero parental supervision...
@@CrustyUggThe thing is, those apps are all 13+ but ANYONE can make an account still! Same with TH-cam. The amount of kids I’ve seen on here, back-chatting adults while going “I’m 10 and I can do what I want” is nuts! It makes them big targets for predators too. I always wonder where the parents are
Im 15 and i enjoy going to sephora. Ive already made this effort before but im gonna make an even bigger effort to be nice to sephora employees because they go through so much atp, these kids have no idea how expensive makeup and skincare is to both make and purchase
I went into Sephora with my mom today, and the workers looked freaking miserable. I am in my mid-teens, and I couldn't fathom the amount of trouble I would be in if I acted like them.
I think Claire's should use this opportunity to market towards this demographic, adding in skincare thats more age appropriate such as a basic moisturizer with a cute fruity label on it for the scent. More clear and glitter glosses, and body sprays that appeal to this age group with fruity names, pretty colors and busy labels. Sephora is supposed to be for an older demographic and it's crazy to think two years ago I never saw a child unless it was someone's kid waiting annoyed around their mother to get out of shop. Times are changing but I don't think they need to put the parents through hell for a 50 dollar product they don't understand fully or that their mother can't even justify the price to buy for themselves. A cheaper, cuter more age appropriate alternative at Sanrio or Claires should be their go to.
actually im 80% sure claires has tried to do this but kids dont want to buy things from claires because its not "trendy or cool" they want the real things like they see on tiktok
I wouldn't put any type of make-up or lotions on my body from Claire's at all.The FDA had the make-ups,lotions etc tested,and it was found they all had Asbestos in the products.Claire's still hasn't bothered to remove these items nor bothered to address this health issue.Kid's shouldn't be wearing make-up to begin with.Keep to lotions,and skincare to get rid of acne.Make-up is the last thing kids should be thinking about.
When I was 16, I kept my promise to get very good grades in high school that year, so my father, as a gift, came with me to a little tattoo store to do a supervised little side nose piercing I wanted as a present, which he payed for. At the same time, I was still playing evry weekend hide-and-seek with my friends in the streets and parks, buying pokemon cards, jumping the rope,... My family used to have a PC at home which I rarely used, I preferred to read books like Harry Potter and comic magazines like Witch, drawing manga, or playing with the game boy. I'm 32 now and... WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON? Young people please, you don't need to "grow fast", just enjoy the different stages of life. There's time for everything in life, trust me, don't screw your childhood because it'll never come back. And trust me too when I tell you that at 16, 17 even 19 you're still mentally a child in many ways. 😢😢😢 Everything is so sad my god...
I am 18 and went to Sephora for the first time after getting my drivers license and was excited to buy *mascara* . The fact that 10 YEAR OLDS are going in to buy things like ‘retinol’ is absolutely insane… Parents truly need to do better for the sake of *everyone*
Wait, seriously? At 10, the only skincare they should want is Lip Smackers or Burt's Bees. 13 for Hard Candy and L.A. Colors. Sephora is for people who make their own $ to buy it. (Edit: I forgot about face wash and sunscreen. I don't use sunscreen and I use face wash as a part of my bathtime routine so I didn't consider it as a part of the skincare routine.)
Well, to be fair, I didn't do makeup when I was 13 beyond chapstick and nail polish. But at 35, I still haven't stepped foot into a Sephora to make a mess. I didn't know kids in NYC could get jobs that young besides babysitting and walking dogs...
imo 13 year olds from my experience arint this barbaric its prob mostly 12 at 10 but i do agree and if i have a child and they turn like 13 i am only givin them like a face wash/ cleanser a moisturizer and a sunscreen thats it and there should def be like a money cap cause i aint giving 50 dollars for you to buy a single moisturizer lol
I never thought I'd say this but Sephora really needs a fucking age limit. Make it to where if you're 13 or under you need an adult with you. I feel so sorry for these employees and customers. 😭
I agree with you girl Sephora needs to put a goddamn age limit because these kids are just crazy and also if I did that at a store, my mom would beat the shit out of me when I come home
@@oboebuddy15maybe around 16ish? Does that sound fair? I'm only asking because although I wasn't interested in makeup at 16 (still not at 27 💀) I know that many are & I don't believe in the whole "no responsibility for your actions until 18" because that seems to be causing a lot of cognitive dissonance for many people to decipher right from wrong & pushing the boundaries so far then hiding behind being a minor. I'm not saying minors should be responsible for things like the horrendous se**ual crimes that involve adults & stuff, but that shouldn't spill over in to EVERY single thing holding absolutely no responsibility.
I’m a teen that is not obsessed with this stuff and I feel so bad for all these people. I also hate the reputation some of these kids are giving us. I have also been bullied by these random 10-11 year olds and they are younger than me… but INTIMIDATING. I am so sorry to all these people having to deal with this. (Btw I also used to make potions using outside stuff and I spend SO much time outside) I really only go to the mall when I’m with friends or when I get money and I never go into Sephora or any stores like it. Once again I am so sorry for my generation…
You don’t have to apologize for other people’s actions! Of course big topics like this get generalized, but we know not everyone will behave like this. I definitely agree there’s some scary kids; I’m 22 and my 10y/o sister has literally made me cry and feel completely worn down 😅
@@WafflesssFalling Seriously, I’m 12 and I go into the Sephora at my local mall sometimes with my sister, I do sometimes look for skincare because I struggle with acne. It makes us so upset when we see girls who are younger than us with perfect skin looking at skincare. We hate it because we might not be allowed to go into Sephora anymore because we’re kids and those 8yr olds just had to ruin it for everyone.
honestly same, im ashamed of gen alpha and im one of them too! i kind of need sephora and ulta bc of my dry skin, i feel like i would be less looked at in ulta ig
Same. Although I got called 'special needs' for not knowing what even half of any of the products are. (Me: I'm sorry it's not my fault I have two mental conditions and I didn't even know what skincare even was until now. Them: Well that still makes you old and you're 'special')
@@SanrioLover766 Wouldn't be happening if people learnt how to control their children, none of this shit is okay. Like I do believe people should go to a shop they want to (unless it is stated as 18+ due to adult content), but if someone is acting like this, people are going to want change and will do that in any way.
Same here! I wasn't even there for myself it was for my sister, I just followed her around and looked at a couple things. Would sometimes let her swatch things she liked the look of on my hand or arm.
I wasn’t even wearing makeup until I was 13/14 and then it was just concealer, eyebrow tint and eyeliner 😭 now all these teens and tweens are walking around, dolled up like adults! I just have to wonder if their parents aren’t explaining the issues with that to kids. I’m so glad that when I was a kid, I acted like it because I can’t help but think that kids now are so in a rush to become adults, they’re losing their childhoods.
same, im 13 and my country doesnt have sephora. I would love to have sephora, because i actually want to buy stuff. But instead these ten year olds and under are being stupid and ruining testers taking it as it doesnt matter. they dont even need half these products, so i dont get why they are ruining sephora for any other kids/teens who actually want to buy stuff and respect the staff/testers.
as a 14-year-old, I cannot BELIEVE the audacity that people around my age have. Was it not instilled at a young age that if you're going to a shop, you DON'T DESTROY THINGS??? WHO RAISED THESE PEOPLE???
I used to work at Sephora. They really do drop their kids off knowing they're going to cause chaos. There was an instance when a bunch of 11-13 yr old boys and girls came in and starting PAINTING THEIR FACE with makeup. They were mostly white with dark brown makeup on... I was having none of it. I told them to clean it off and to leave, respectfully. I told them this was a place of business and not a playground. All of my coworkers thanked me, but I was just doing what I thought was right.
Don't apologize. It's these parents that are at fault 100%. However, I appreciate that you're mature enough to be respectful and know right from wrong.
What Sephora has to do is scare them Treat them like elite customers - and everything they touch, you put it on a bill.. before they leave you hand the bill to them. When they say they have no money, then you go.. oooo nooo “ pull out the ‘ if you don’t pay you’re goin got jail for 10 year😂‘.. if mommmy can’t pay, she goes to jail for 10 years. MAKE the parents pay. Guarantee you they wont do it.
It’s crazy how different kids will turn out based on how the parent takes care of them,I can’t imagine my 10yr old sister going into Sephora and doing this.
Kids should not be allowed in Sephora without their parents. This has to be enforced by the store. Not sure if they can do that though. Hopefully this is a phase and it will not last very long!
@@CCCubeCandy No, that's probably too extreme, most people don't get a government issued id until they're in their late teens or early adulthood. The employees should just be advised to ask where the kid's parents are if any enter the store.
They absolutely can do that. Mattress stores often have signs saying they don’t allow anyone under 18 to shop alone 🤷🏽♀️ bc who wants dirty wild kids jumping on a mattress?
I'm 12, and I can't believe the audacity of these 4th and 5th graders. The only time I've been in a sephora is when I went with my mom, maybe twice. The skincare smoothies, and especially the mixing with the fingers, are making me gag. I also blame the parents. This is utterly appalling and disgusting.
I agree 100%. I'm 14 and whenever I go into a sephora im always super respectful and am so careful not to be burden. its so disgusting and I see the 10 year olds who go into stores like sephora, Lululemon, etc (spoiled kids) with no respect for anything around them in my town. these children think they own the world and its truly ridiculous.
SO. REAL. im twelve and the first and only time ive been to sephora was like a few months ago and i saw so many people and then i got overwhelmed and left😭😭 i was in there for 5 minutes and im never going back…😭
I experienced this last summer. I’m in my early 30s. Went into a Sephora with a friend who was visiting from another country, and it was PACKED with kids (probably because it was summer vacation). I had no idea what was going on, but my friend was looking for a new foundation and I wanted to show her Fenty because she’d never seen it in person, so decided to go ahead and look for it through the sea of children. Almost all the testers were gone (now I see why), and we couldn’t get someone to help us figure out her shade the 20 mins we tried because they were too busy dealing with actual 11-year-olds. Eventually we went to the perfume section (the only child free space) and the employee there recommended we go to the Sephora in the super high end mall in my city because it would be more chill. We left and my friend went the next day (I was at work) and said it was a much better experience. Not only are these kids making a mess out of the store, but they can cause said stores to lose paying customers with their antics.
@@SpiritsofMercy Yes it goes to the company, but there's still specific sales targets stores have to reach coz nobody wants to pay for a store that's only copping losses and not making any profit. So they might end up closing the store causing employees to lose their jobs, customers having to travel further etc. Also, it diverts those kids to another store that they're just going to destroy too.
as an 11 year old, i apologize on behalf of my species. what they are doing is just plain rude, they have no respect for the employees time and effort..
Sephora can easily stop this by making a store policy no one under 16 without a guardian. What I'm most shocked by is parents leaving 10yr olds in a mall ALL ALONE! WHERE ARE THE PARENTS?!?! They know there's creeps everywhere right? So many kids go missing n they just drop them off at the mall? What if there's a shooter? And ur not there to protect them? I dunno my daughter is 11 n yes she loves to play with my makeup n skin Care. But I will say she does treat it with respect. She loves to try my face masks n stuff. N I don't mind because she acts right. And I would NEVER leave her alone in the mall no way. But that's just me. The kids act like that because the parents aren't being parents. I bet you they all have parents who are their "friends" n probably never punish them. I'm friends with my daughter but I'm her mother first. Come on PARENTS step up n be a real parent. If I ever found out my daughter went in a store and was acting like an animal she'd be in so much trouble.
I know! And as a teenager myself reading this I totally agree, when I was their age I certainly wouldn’t be allowed to go alone, let alone the bad parenting these kids have on them.
Recently an 11 y/o got dropped off at a mall by her mom, ALONE and got violently SAed by a man. I don't know why parents these days think that their braindead ipad kids are capable of independence.
Thanks Sephora kids for getting some store products completely locked, they're some stores that have essentially everything under the glass cage that we all hate because of them.
Rightttt like stores can’t trust adults not to steal anymore…now they can’t trust children to have public decency and manners. Makes me not wanna go outside anymore.
honestly I think before we blame the kids we should look at why they are acting like this and at least put some blame on their parents for not teaching their kids manners.
At the store I work at, we started putting only 1 or 2 products out for certain brands and keeping the rest behind the register or in the back room because we kept finding completely empty displays minutes after we filled them... and when the cameras would get checked, it would be middle or high schoolers shoving all the products in their bags. This was basically a daily occurrence for a long time before we got better security and started tracking them down and getting them charged with theft, but it still happens a lot. It's also sad because we get a lot of paying customers thinking we're out of stock and asking where the products all are. But if we put them all out, they would be stolen by kids by the end of the day and we WOULD be out of stock. We made that mistake before.
@@ari.worsley Yes.... and no. I can remember being 10 (30 now) and never would I have *EVER* done what some of these wild ass children are doing now. The audacity they have, not just in stores, but really anywhere in public. They act like actual heathens. Yes, it *is* on parents to a point, because no matter how good a parent you can be, no matter how much you drill proper etiquette and morals into your kid's head, your child will act how they wish outside of your watch. Especially pre-teens. All those hormones and new societal pressures they endure while trying to figure themselves out. Some of my own friends at the time were a testament to that since some of them would act out when we were on our own when I knew damn well their parents were present in their lives (not including usual pre-teen/teen angst of "ugh my parents suck"). Hell, one friend that was well-behaved in public was actually abused to hell and back at home because she loved HP, and her mother literally beat her with a bible and called her a witch! You would think she would have been one to act out! I don't know what could actually even begin to fix this problem of Gen Alpha/Young Gen Z kids acting like it's Lord of the Flies out here beyond banning TikTok as a platform and keeping them off of social media. It's like a virus rotting their little impressionable brains. Let's not even get into the volatile political climate they are growing up in. Honestly, if I was a kid now, I can't say for sure if I wouldn't have turned out just the same with all of everything going on.
This isn’t completely the kids fault. Parents should ofc be monitoring what there kids or doing (or some other adult). Parents should also monitor what they watch on tiktok/ other social media. Another reason why tiktok is for 13+
I am 14 years of age almost 15, and I’ve always been embarrassed to go into ANY makeup store. I honestly don’t even have desire to wear makeup either nor have I ever asked for it in my life. It’s so sad seeing these kids obsessed with makeup.
I honestly and truly agree with there being an age restriction at Sephora or any makeup store. You want to fool around and act like a child? You are getting treated like one and you now need an adult. It’s funny how kids demand to be treated like an adult but do stuff like this. 🤦♀️
there are people who have hobbies and paint with it, are respectful, need it for acting or movies and people who like it- maybe stop fucking putting all gen a’s ina box and stop stereotyping.
I work in a toy shop and this is exactly what kids are like in stores, that’s exactly the mess they leave - but it’s a toy shop, so that’s to be expected, it’s part of our day to tidy up after them. But this is not a toy shop, it’s a makeup store, so the standards are entirely different and honestly it’s bloody disgraceful Parents absolutely need to be more responsible for their children if this is how they behave
Just because it's a toy shop doesn't give the kids the right to destroy a place of business...kids know right from wrong, and some parents act like their kids can never be told no and never have to clean up.
As a 16-year-old. This is definitely a parenting issue and personally my parents will never let me talk to them that way or do stupid stuff like this and I wouldn’t ever see myself doing stupid stuff like this and the fact that they’re just getting away with it is crazy.
110% a parenting issue. I could never have imagined acting like that at 10, my mom always made sure to teach me empathy and to understand that my actions affect other people.
@featherytoad3713 No one cares about proper punctuation it's literally the internet. It's not an English essay it's really not as deep as you think it is.
I have to blame the parents. There's serious problems with the way kids have been raised. And the parents should be financially responsible for the destruction.
this is a new generation of horribly self conscious children. kids should never have to "beautify" themselves or worry at all about their appearances beyond being hygienic. i cant imagine the effects this new wave of overconsumption will cause.
People are already saying on TikTok, that they will have to learn the hard way. If they won't take no for an answer from parents or Sephora employees when it comes to ingredients like retinol and glycolic acid, they will just have to experience their face burning and skin peeling to get humbled and realize they shouldn't use them so young.
I worked at ulta this last holiday season and shout out to the young girl around 12 years old who was extremely patient kind and respectful to me and my time. I enjoyed helping her find her blush so much she was refreshing compared to the usual stuff you see. Her mom was also really kind and I saw them off work at the mall a few weeks later and wished them happy holidays. Hope they’re doing well. Shoutout to the good parents who teach their kids kindness and respect for people who work in customer service. We all love you 🙏🏼
❤️❤️❤️ there's a lot of crazy kids out there and bad parents, but there's even more good people who teach their kiddos right. I was obsessed with makeup around that age too but was always taught to be kind and not use a tester. Everyone was so nice!
This is disgusting not to mention the amount of other fires that Sephora employees are expected to put out. As a former cast member, I can tell you that between making sure Everyone gets helped, keeping inventory in stock in the holidays, keeping an eye out for theft, and making sure testers are clean and sanitized every day… Wild packs of children on top of that is INSANE
A lot of the people who work at Sephora are licensed makeup artists who make above minimum wage, and who have their own clientele on the side. They are *_PROFESSIONALS_* and they make the money of a professional. They are not expecting to babysit brats, and have that interfere with their licensed work (because it is nowhere in their job description to be a babysitter). What they *_DO_* expect is to come to work and deal with customers who have decorum and class, who won't tear the place down and have their mini-me in tow, helping destroy the place. We are there to do what a person with a PROFESSIONAL LICENSE does; not to be your babysitter! Go be entitled somewhere else!@@tinnavigdisgunnlaugsdottir9499
I’m not an adult, I’m not even a teenager and looking at this happening it’s just genuinely disgusting. I feel so sorry for the poor employees who have to clean up all that mess-
10 years old and just being dropped off at the mall??? I wasn't allowed in the mall by myself until I was 15 (but then again my parents were kind of strict). I know of at least 2 Sephora stores in my area that have put signs that say things like "All Minors Must Be Accompanied By An Adult" because of the sheer destruction these kids leave behind! Edit since II was on mobile before: Seeing all those testers being destroyed makes my blood boil! Seeing all those bronzers and blushes with the nail line down the middle defintely makes me think that they were copying a tiktok influencer who does that to their own products. This all reminds of an incident that happened when I worked at Bath & Body Works. Girls would just walk in, go to the Warm Vanilla Sugar, spray it all over themselves, and then walk out like it was their own room. Thing is, not all of them would use the tester! When an object is made into a tester, you have to do all sorts of steps to catalogue it as such. One time a group of girls came in, took the non-testers, and started spraying them. The manager was fed up at that point because that was product lost (3 spray bottles were used at $20 each, so that was $60 of product lost). She asked if the girls were paying for it and they said no. When asked why they didn't just used the tester, they said it was because they wanted to use something new/fresh. When asked that they pay for the product they wasted, they tried to bolt but security had been called already. Their parents were MORTIFIED when they were called. One Dad basically shoved the spray in his daughters hand and said if she didn't used it everyday until the last drop was gone that she was never going out anywhere without BOTH her parents at her side at all times until she turned 18.
@@roden70 We were all trained to look out for large groups of people coming in at the same time because they would crowd around a display and while some were checking out or testing the product, one or two others would pocket small items. Thankfully we did not have shoplifters in this case but it had happened before!
I’m a dance/theater student so I need to buy makeup for my plays/dance recitals (I’m 15) and I still think it’s insane that it looks absolutely disgusting in Sephora
as a OCD girl i always take makeup wipe to sephora and clean everything up, and yes everything is horribly messy. I remember, i was just cleaning some drunk elphant smoothies as i felt terrible for the sephora workers and around 7 year olds walked up to me side eyed me and they all laugh and procced to make the worst mess of all time on the drunk elephant isle. I know im not a worker and shouldnt be cleaning upr but STILL its rank.
This is completely appalling. I'm 31, and I started seriously wearing makeup and going to Sephora when I was 13 years old. I would never in my wildest teenage years behave this way. Ever. I'm speechless.
When I was ten my mom took me, my 20 yr cousins, and my aunt to a Sephora to check things out, I saw an eyeshadow pallet and my mom tested some out on me for FUN. I didn’t know what half of the stuff was, the last time I ever touched makeup, it was for a cosplay. I have an idea for Sephora and ulta, make a playpen for those things.
im rlly senistive to makeup but when i went to sephora like a year ago, we tested makeup for fun too! and the employees didnt mind bc we damn well knew we shouldnt destroy things!
Parents need to do better and teach these kids respect. Destruction is tolerated in today's society, and that's why they do it because there are no repercussions.
I remember looking at some of the makeup samples, wondering what on earth happened to them: the stick of a lip gloss bent in half, lipsticks that look as if someone pulled the entire thing out the tube, and the pump being completely destroyed. Now I know for a fact it was these "Sephora Kids" who did this abomination. Really makes me mad how their parents arent teaching them discipline and they're all the byproduct of Ipad kids.
It’s sad to see how now all tweens even the respectful and responsible ones who go into Sephoras get weird looks from people because of these “Sephora kids”
Yes! I’m almost 13 and I have a basic care routine (cleanser, serum moisturizer, sunscreen and what not, but I have other things from birthdays and Christmas) and whenever I go into Sephora all of the stuff is so gross when I try to properly test it, I can’t. Most of the time I try to tidy it up but sometimes you need a deep clean with that stuff lol. I am really sorry to all of the people who go into Sephora and have to deal with some of the kids in this generation.
to you guys in replies - its better to go to Rossmann or Hebe. if youre dealing with acne etc then they have prpducts for this and you will avoid weird looks. Also, remember that there is always a possibility that an employee will think that you are the one to mess the store and u can get in trouble for smth u didnt even do. I dont wanna be lecturing you bc i dont know who yall are but if i can somehow help then why not.
As a kid whos around the same age as these kids who ruin the makeup. i just wanna say im so sorry about whats happening, no one should have to clean it up except the kid who made the mess
As a younger teenage girl. These younger kids absolutely appall me. Ive seen lots of groups of 8-10 y/o's just honestly completely vandalising the store. And I think its pretty unfair that if sephora adds an age limit its probably going to be 16+ which sucks for people like me who genuinely just want to go into sephora to get a new lipstick or eyeliner etc. These kids are so unbelievably entitled its disgusting.
I don't mean to insult or anything, my comment comes from respect But whi would you want to use make up if you're under 16? Not to be rude, I promise, maybe I'm old fashioned or whatevs, but I don't think sephora is for people under 15
@mane53017 I don't wear a lot of makeup, usually I just use mascara, blush, and a more neutral toned lipstick or lip gloss. If im going to an event I might use eye shadow and eyeliner. In general I don't use much makeup. It just makes me feel prettier, I don't use it as a mask of anything, just to enhance my natural features. I hope this answers your question 🙂
@@Avesridesas an older teen, that’s totally cool! And as long as it’s for yourself, and not for others approval and because you enjoy it I love that for you!!!
I’m so upset that these bratty Sephora girls are ruining the reputation of all 10 - 12 yr old girls who know better than too demand high priced items and retinol and make up. Some girls that go into Sephora may also need makeup for things like dance concerts/ competitions and other things as well that it is mandatory to wear makeup. In conclusion not all girls that go into Sephora are bratty and demanding ty for reading this (Edit) ty 4 all the likes!
It really is too. I struggle with my skin quite a bit. (I’m 12). When I went to a drug store to get my La Roche posay stuff, I saw a 6 YEAR OLD GENUINELY ASKIJG HER MUM TO GET HER A MOINSTURIZER OR SOMETHING while me and my friend laughed about all the 'preppies' and '#bubbleskincare'
@@Eff_Jay LITERALLYYY LIKE I DEADASS SAW A KID WALK INTO A SEPHORA, UNATTENDED, WITH A STRAIGHT FACE, BUY A MASCARA WITH HER MOMS CREDIT CARD, AND THEN WALK OUT. LITTLE GIRL WAS LIKE 8
I’ve been watching videos about the death of the tween phase and brands such as Claire’s, Justice, Wet Seal, etc. There were girls from my middle/high school who shopped at Sephora, but as far as I know (Idk I was more of an Ulta girl) they were mostly respectable and nice to people? I mean they sure as hell werent doing whatever was going on here (but this was also almost 10 years ago).
When I was 10 (ignore my pfp, haha man funny) I liked transformers prime so I remember mixing water and blue food coloring to make "energon." So I'd put in the freezer. I didn't go to sephora because 1. It's not for me and I'm a boy 2. I never heard of sephora
@SanrioLover766 Some have already put restrictions on the shops, in some Sephora's now you NEED someone over 18 to accompany you due to the destruction being caused.
@SanrioLover766 That's BS. With that "logic" we should also let toddler run into adult toy stores and let them chew on the dildos. Or a 4 year old into a jeweller and play marbles with pearl necklaces. Or allow 12 year olds into night clubs. Well, none of that is allowed, now is it? And you know why? Because it's either forbidden or those ages simply have no reason to be there. Just like at freakin Sephora where 10 year old with their $10 pocket money have no damn purpose. Being little shits that only destroy products for some ridiculous "challenge", and are a flat out nuisance to shoppers and employees alike is NOT a good reason for them to be there. Damn I miss those days where parents would bring children into this world to raise them as respectable human beings. Children, because that is what a 10 year old is, should play with slime from the toy store, not serums from Sephora.
They're literally not being raised😭 they're being influenced by adults on tiktok because the parents don't want to parent so they gave them a phone and social media
I do genuinely really want an age limit implementation into Sephora, but I think 18 is a bit too high like those women in the comments said. I’m 15, and I and many other teens need/want skincare and want to use makeup, which is a totally appropriate age to use products like that, so I think it’s a bit unfair that only adults would be able to shop there. Most teens are respectful as well, it’s mainly these kids under 13 that are being disrespectful. Personally I believe that if you are under the age of 13 or 14 you should have to be accompanied by an adult in the store.
@therianchomper263 I relate. Ive personally struggled with acne a lot ever since I was 10, and I never even did anything abt it until a year ago when I found a prescribed treatment. seeing these kids who have flawless skin just makes me go insane, cuz why are they buying all those products?? they don't need them they're fine 😭
I'm 15 and honestly don't really do skincare yes I'm a female can't believe These little kid are doing this i have lil cousins that act like adults I'm actally the only one that still enjoying kid stuff Its sad kids are straight up mean now
@@kokichisimp9660kids have always been mean to be honest it's just that parents don't parent anymore, and they don't restrict what their children are exposed to
whenever I went to Sephora when I was younger I was only able to get lipgloss but the fact that 7 year olds have half of Sephora I find this absolutely ABSURD I still only go to Sephora for lipgloss and nothing else to this day the only skincare product (popular) is Bubble from Ulta. The fact that adults are leaving kids at the mall with their Credit card. These skincare products are not for 7-10 year olds! Whenever I do use skincare there I get zits EVERYWHERE maybe thats just me but my grandma makes actually healthy skincare,and they’re so disappointing disrespectful and immature we NEED an age limit. I’m glad my parents gave me a childhood but if Gen-alpha was this bad imagine gen-beta.
I recently experienced this at an Ulta, except their moms were there, doing nothing to rein them in. A group of about 15 girls shoved into me multiples times and just did not know how to behave appropriately in that environment. However, I understood it was a really exciting experience for them and really only felt annoyed at the moms. What blew my mind, though, was the way these girls attacked the Ordinary skincare; no 10 year old needs to be shopping for Ordinary products. They should have been spending their money on fun bath bombs or nail polish, not asking their moms about retinols.
As a 12-year-old, I think it's crazy how 10-year-olds ruin Sephora. I recently went to one with my grandma and avoided the skin care section because I have the skincare I need (Cleaner, Moisture, Water). I went to Rare Beauty section to try the blush and I remember waiting for a group of kids to stop playing with the blush. I tested the blush properly by putting a little dot on the back of my hand and found the one I wanted. I put this all back in the right way and mess-free. I got other things too, but Druck Elephant and other brands need to be in a separate kid-free zone. Edit: Thanks for the likes. My mom let me get some make-up if I spent my own money on it when I was 11. I started at Target and I got some eyeshadow. Then there were more times when I got more make-up. Then my grandma asked for what I wanted for Christmas/b-day (my Christmas and birthday are close to each other). I said Sephora gift card because I wanted some good quality makeup. I got an $100 gift card. I thought I was only getting $50. Then a few weeks after Christmas, I went to Sephora with my Grandma to spend time with her and get good quality make-up.
These parents need to pay for all of these products those kids have damaged. And also pay for a sign that says outside of Sephoras “NO 10 YEAR OLDS ALLOWED.” Edit:Ya’ll do not know what sarcasm is.
@@Graceee222probably 15 or more depends on the product they selling if its makeup for adult then 16+ but if its for peole with acne 10+ since some kids can get acne early
@@Potato_ofelrio its a hobby, just have security ready to escort someone out. im a boy, gen alpha. im trans and i love experimenting with my look and different colors. there are 2 billion and increasing by the hour and you guys are gonna judge them all for like a 40% of gen alphas doing it??
At 11, the only "products" I got was a tinted lip balm and a lip gloss. Only wore makeup for dance performances. This is definitely on the parents, who enable them to purchase expensive items they truly dont need. Remember cheap store lip smackers, products actually targeted towards children? (Also, as a candle lover, when I saw that candle with the pokes in it, I froze up 😭.)
As the rare case of a “good Sephora kid”, I always make sure my mother is with me while I look for make ups. I’ve also been planning on asking employees if there is a way I can help them so their job is easier. I’m so disappointed in my own generation.
@@pizzapartytime1826Some people just like it. Simple as that. I started wearing makeup at age 12, I'm 41 now. I can't speak for everyone but I found it fun to expirement with different looks and I liked how it accentuated my eyes. Most of the girls in my school wore makeup around the same age back then because it was and still is just a typical interest for many preteen girls. It's not for everyone, but it's an interest or hobby just like anything else
This is the attack of the ipad babies tbh. Millennial parents have completely failed tbh. People think that I'm too strict because my kids get zero tech... mmmhmmm and my kids don't act like animals either so, who's in the wrong. Am I mom shaming? Yes, yes I am.
@@unfortunatelyiamsanehalf of my generation is spending every weekend partying with friends at home with kids present, and act exactly the same way. They bully the F*CK out of their children under guise of lovingly teasing. Zero emotional regulation skills. That is NOT because of lack of “help”. It’s not hard to reprimand a child and teach them humility and respect by using consequences to actions and following through. It’s laziness. Call it what it is. iPad/screens raised our babies. I’m ashamed it took this long to for myself to actually see it for what it is. If we’re blaming millennials… Blame, Gen X who made us. Then, blame baby boomers who made gen x. Get it? It’s a division tactic. Gender vs gender. Generation vs generation. Heterosexuality vs LGBTQ. Keep us lower folks too engaged with in fighting to see that our own country is turning into a modern day type Nazi Germany. Book burnings, genocides, removing reproductive rights for women. Until the bigger picture is addressed? It’s not gonna change. Again, it’s NOT a generation problem. It’s this gross ‘dog eat dog’ mentality that the government is spewing out. That media is spewing out. Products. Spirituality. All plans set in motion by the powers that be… destroying social etiquette and basic human decency. That’s how you gain and stay in control. Infighting. We’re too busy fighting about this crap on line that we’re doing absolutely nothing to fix the REAL issues. 95% of us can’t even shop at Sephora because we can barely rent. Or get food. If we want change? We need to address the real issue. Evil leaders. Cut the head off the snake, the body will follow. It’s not a millennial vs gen x vs baby boomer argument. It’s the fact that family and faith is becoming last, self and division is strictly what’s put first. Why? Money. Power. Control. To keep us in this loop of 1% and poverty.. altering our constitution, we are losing our freedoms, and the majority are too busy fighting to not seeing it.
They are raised by phones. This is why they lack discipline. I remembered when Barbie in the movie being sad because little girls don't like her anymore. She's right! Thanks to the Internet, kids prefer adult things to impress these fools behind the screens than actually enjoying playing their toys.
What makes you think they haven’t completely decimated those aisles too? I remember visiting and the Walmarts I went to a lot of the toys were opened and destroyed it was crazy. It seems like the newer generation will have an entitlement problem.
Honestly, as an 11-year-old, I never went to Sephora. I feel like I'm a "normal kid". The only time I went to Sephora was when my mom wanted to get makeup, and I did nothing. I just watched her. Seeing people my age doing this feels so horrible, like ew, it's disgusting.I'm sorry you guys have to go through this. People my age should be going to Claire's. Yes, I stopped going there long ago due to my mom, but I still love that place. This is honestly insane. I'm not sure what's going on in those kids' minds, thinking that this is vandalism. I enjoy makeup myself, but never wear it unless my mom says so on special occasions. But I wouldn't go crazy over stuff like this. I wouldn't demand stuff, not everyone is a Sephora kid. But the ones who are spoiled brats and disgusting, I'm sorry.
I saw some kids (maybe 6-7 years old) and they screamed when they saw Sephora and started doing weird dances outside of it. I think I saw them run inside. I think these kids were ‘Sephora kids’ too. 🤦♀️
that’s crazy… when i was that age i was only interested in zebra print and stuffed animals like i thought it was bad when i got online at 11 and was exposed to - a lot 😃😃. ur telling me 6-7 year olds are influenced by social media already like HOW. shame on these millennial ass parents who let their children have access to the internet
no same thoo i love my unicorns and my teddy bears glittered leggings and now 6-7 years olds are now into skincare which they don't need and makeup @@twothousandandchew
Dude 6-7 year old me was going to Disney land and Lego land. And building legos or buying princess stuff. And they say that gen z is the worst….at least we still had a childhood.
@@AMS-tothepmFr. I’m 22, so a slightly older Gen Z, but I still remember not having internet access everywhere I went, not being on social media and just genuinely playing outside with friends during summer and having water fights! Everyone has become SO dependent on social media for happiness and it’s scary! Influencers are essentially raising children because the parents aren’t.
As someone who is 10 -15 I feel ashamed. Parents these days let their kids run loose and the worst part is is that not only are they making skin care smoothies but kidnapping. It’s not safe and kids are vandalizing things that aren’t theirs. I was disgusted when I heard the Summer Friday one because she put it on her crust lips and just threw it back and not only snatched it away from a customer.
I was 19 when I got my first pieces of M.A.C. makeup from Sephora. At 10 I was playing with dolls and watching cartoons! Parents today need to start teaching their kids discipline instead of spoiling them every time they whine and cry!
Today when I went to Ulta to get a moisturizer, I was looking at the testers and they were all just destroyed so I decided that I would clean them so I cleaned them to help the workers out and they really appreciated it and I’m just gonna say, I agree with you this trend needs to be stopped.
#1. These parents letting their 10 yrs olds loose unattended should be held responsible for the damages their little brats cause. As a Mom, I would be mortified to leave a 10 yr old at a mall like she was grown! Sephora should put Do Not leave Children Unattended signage up and when it happens next, call security on them and security can call their “parents” and threaten them with vandalism charges. Bet it’d stop then!
i'm 13. when i was 11ish, my MOM took me to a sephora for the first time. she guided me through using the testers respectfully, choosing the right shade for my skin tone, the fact i DONT need $100 serums, etc. i got a foundation that i used as a concealer and a lipstick, but she would NEVER let me go alone at that age, and i don't think she'd let me go without an adult now even with my friends. it all goes back to the parents. there's nothing wrong with younger teenagers using makeup as long as you teach them how to use it responsibly.
I'm 13 too and my mom took me into Sephora at a similar age. Honestly she forced me in there. It was kind of just a drag along in a mall spree. She was getting some lotion recommended for me by her friend because they said my skin was dry. I didn't have much to do so I went around, cried to myself, looked at the different weird containers and cool models, and took a little eye brush tester tool thing. I was honestly too disgusted to use testers so idk how these kids see past that. Idk why I turned that into a story that added no use
I'm a 14 year old. I have only went to ACTUAL make up stores (here in Europe) with my mother when she wanted to look for a new perfume or nail polish or concealer. So I've occasionally tried out eyeshadow or a shade of foundation on the back of my hand,while I ,in real life would in my age never use those. I have literally only been using Mascara for about half a year now and ONLY because my mother let me. I asked. She Thought about it. And then she allowed it to me and the next day after work gave me my first tube of mascara. I don't even have that much of skincare. I have something because of my acne and one for my dry skin.
Honestly corporations like Sephora are to blame. “The customer is always right” crap needs to end and employees need to be allowed to call out bad behavior and kick people out. Stores aren’t playgrounds or dog parks and companies need to take a stand and expect a level of respect from the customer.
It's frustrating because that "customer is always right" saying is supposed to mean that you can't tell the customer "no you don't want to buy this" when they're buying products, not that the customer gets to bully you and cause havoc at your place of work
@SanrioLover766 and? there's people who go to sephora to actually TRY products before buying them, 10 is too fucking young to be roaming around makeup areas and touching samples, if they dont wanna get age discriminated then maybe dont fuck up the testers like they're the only ones who're gonna use it lmaoo
As a millennial with no kids yet, seeing these kids with horrible behavior has been helpful on what NOT to do as a parent. I’m not raising iPad babies. It’s important to teach them to respect surroundings and be kind.
Yup if I was to have kids I don't want to raise them as iPod babies like honestly if they watch something they have to ask permission and or I have to supervise what they watch. Or I will also just decide what they watch lol
I recommend toys minimal toys more diy crafts Getting off your phone around the child so they also don't see you on it scrolling. Letting them outside and playing side by side with them.
so i'm a 12 yr old girl. ive been to sephora one time. that one time i was 6. my mom jus wanted to get herself a new lipstick. i asked if i could get makeup so i can be pretty, and she took me to CLARIE'S. i got a fruity chapstick for like 3 dollars. still have that chapstick and its the only "makeup" i have. i love the chapstick and i didnt get upset about it. i wasnt chronically online at 6 because i didnt even have my own device. only the family computer. not even my place to talk about it but this is sad.
This is horrible, I didn’t go to Sephora till I was an adult and I could buy my own makeup. Thanks to my parents 😔 I wasn’t dropped off at the mall unattended till I was 17.
I'm 34 and went into Sephora for the first time a few weeks ago and was shocked about how many kids were inside running around, and I had tripped over. It was insane.
As a early teen, I completely agree with this. It is terrible and I feel so bad for the employees. The only reason I have gone to Sephora is to get my favorite fragrance.
Yeah, it's insane. I feel so awkward going into Sephora in the first place, (my parents never want to come in with me) i would never dare act like that. I only go in there from blush and conclerer since I have quite a lot of pimples to cover up, and I'm really pale so I use blush not to look dead. I have gone in maybe 5 times and I'm sure that I am the youngest person there (also a younger teen 13-15). so lucky I have never seen these kids irl
@@ummaynotbestraight fr, the testers at my Sephora are mostly clean, except the drink elephant section. 💀 I’m so glad I don’t act like that, and my parents never wanna come either! I have to drag them there or order online.
Agree, I'm 15 and ive had a lot of break out on face so I go in to get products to help clear it up, or maybe even mascara or highlighter if mine is running out. When I was in there, I saw one of those "skincare smoothies" the preppies make and it was probably a 10 year old.
For the damage that these kids cause in the Sephora stores, the parents need to be charged! Why aren’t the Sephora employees stopping these kids from destroying the isles of products??? I don’t want to shop in a store after a group of these DESRECFUL KIDS have been! Sephora: Kids under 16 must have an ADULT!! 😡
I went around with my 12-15 year old friends with no parents back in the day and none of us acted up. These parents are failing them. You'd think all these children have psychiatric or behavioral disorders. And yes parents should be charged and the kids should be forced to clean!!!!
What can they do? Ask them to leave? Then they say "no." Unlike before when we'd be embarrassed and maybe say a few things as we left, this new generation whip out their phones, hit record, mock the employees or play victim and then post it online. The employees aren't allowed to touch them. Companies can't even stop shoplifters these days, much less bratty kids, because of insane lawsuits. This is what happens when you get rid of accountability in the world. I mean seriously, if you were the Sephora employee, told them to leave and they rolled their eyes and told you no, what are you left with?
@@dostagirl9551not to mention the kids do buy things (with stolen money from mommy's purse) so the company doesn't want to get rid of them if they're customers
@@dostagirl9551 Every business has the right to refuse service. If these little hellions are disrespecting the store, the employees have a right to not check them out at the counter when they try to pay for their product. Corporate may not feel the same way, but something has to be done. I guentee you, I can spend a lot more than a 12 year old with their parents money!!
As a older gen alpha, I would like to apologize for how terrible my generation has been at places like Sephora and Ulta, and I would like to remind you all that not all gen alpha’s are like this. Thank you for listening.
As an older Gen Z that's been on the internet for almost my entire life, it feels like the loudest people in the room represents an entire group, which really sucks. Sometimes I don't like my generation because I think their music taste is trash some trends they do is cringe and dangerous. Unfortunately, the internet is filled with misinformation, terrible news, entitled people, and creeps and the internet is not an accurate representation of life.
As an older gen alpha as well I have never been to a Sephora in my life I didn’t even know it existed until a few years ago and I can’t believe what the 8-10 year olds are doing
Im going to guess we are around the same age, I also think they are a problem. I usually just say I'm the youngest gen z to get away from the whole 'you must be the worst generation ever' thing.
Saphora and ulta need to ban these kids from coming into the store on their own, they must be accompanied by an adult. What is sad is parents today have not taught their kids what respect is ,or just lock it all up so they can't get it ,or call the cops have them arrested for vandalism make the parents pay
fr what happened to parents taking responsibility for their children. like the trope where a child breaks something in a store and the mom immediately pays for it and doesn’t want trouble. now they literally laugh and go “how cutes my child huh?” while their “cutesy child” is fuckin up business cards at the receptions desk 😭
i audibly screamed "NOOOO" when the first video of the skincare smoothie (even that name gives me the ick) came up. sephora needs to make a rule that if you're under a certain age, you have to be with an adult that stays with you the whole time to make sure you don't wreak havoc on the testers!
Honestly it's vandalism and parents gotta be held accountable for dumping there kids off as well as the damage they cause.
Repent for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.Jesus died for your sins so that you may be saved.
I can't believe the literal epidemic of children that need to catch some hands 😂
I'm 27 & have three children, all girls (7,5,3) & I work so hard to keep it real & TEACH them how to carry themselves as young ladies. I don't live by the "do as I say not as I do" because that's borderline psychotic in my opinion.
Do I believe in abuse? Absolutely not
Do I believe in situational beat downs? .... Maybe 💀
@@karmAnonymous”Situational beat downs” MAAM 🤣
@@keylimepxe lmfao I swear, I will never end up on a show like Maury taking about "I'm afraid of my 12 year old because they hit me blah blah blah"
That's where the Situational beat down comes in 😂
Otherwise, despite the young ages of my daughters, we literally just talk to one another. I'm careful not to cross the line of where some parents are more of a friend but in a toxic way where there is no authority figure or respect.
If I ask my daughters to do something & they don't want to, I ask why & I hear them out then they hear me out & once I tell them why, they have had no problem with doing whatever it is asked. I'm not a strict prude, so maybe that's why it works out along with me treating them as individuals with agency. I believe a major issue is parents playing these weird lying games with their kids & treating them like they aren't as mentally & emotionally capable as they actually are. On top of that, the weird cognitive dissonance of what I said before about the do as I say not as I do AND the blatant disrespect they dish out to the children. It's causing these kinds of issues that bleed on to the general public.
It's so unfortunate. I wouldn't have dreamed of behaving the way we are seeing children of TEN behaving in stores... I honestly forsee situational violence when these children get older but it's only because their parents are setting them up for failure. Somebody at some point isn't going to put up with this behavior as they get closer to adulthood or even after they become of age.
💀
That is what you get when you raise a generation without spanking!
I blame the parents 100%. They need to watch a 10 year old. Who tf let's a 10 year old alone in a store in this day and age?
Yeah I've been in an ulta and there were these 2 girls (they both were like 8-9 years old 💀) and these little girls were making a HUGE mess in the drunk elephant section... And their mom was just on her phone and didn't care at all. These parents are just so brain dead 😥
Exactly!!
At 10 years old I knew how to behave at a store, never ever would I have behaved this badly and if I had accidentally made a mess I would’ve asked a worker for help and apologized for said mess. My mom would have grounded me for misbehaving like this.
10 year old is old enough to go to a store alone, they are not that helpless. I agree they make a mess and all but I don't think it is because of the age, rather the way they were raised.
I work at a Crystal store and I’ve literally had to tell kids off for running around and picking up products and then rolling it on the floor while their mother stands there.
I told a little girl off once for trying to put one in her mouth while her mother wasn’t looking and she just started crying and her mother didn’t do anything , I feel like parents want babies but then babies grow into kids and then they just give up and kind of go. Oh I have to actually raise it now.
And the worst part is, they say WE are the ones who don’t belong in Sephora. One time I heard a 10 year old girl with two of her friends talking about how everyone is over 35 and are too old to be using skincare. It makes me pissed, these preppy’s are extremely rude and disrespectful and think there better then everyone else, it just makes me pissed.
We are too old? They are too young to use active skincare. The products are formulated for adults and not children.
@@ChienaAvtzon Exactly, it’s not going to make you look younger, it’s going to destroy there skin barrier.
@@ShumiAi-l5chonestly no offense to the 10yr old preppy’s (who do that not all preppy do are rude or skincare or are rude and do skin care) they need to sit down and stop trashing on 30 yr olds who want to take care of themselves I’m ok with the skin care for yourselves at a young age but trashing on people messing up stores and hurting many people’s feelings is just wrong and disgusting to see I sorry that you had to witness that atrocity (sorry if there are spelling mistakes and grammar mistakes)
Exactly, and I coach little girls in basketball cheer to help out my church league and one of the 3rd graders came to practice after the Christmas break and told me about all the skincare she got. She doesnt even need it, her skin is fine and she is a 3rd grader!!!!!
Good luck with those chemical burns from using too many actives as like 9 years old, Harper. lol.
as a younger gen z, i get terrified at these kids. my grandparents were always around, and i would never treat an adult like that 😭 i can’t even talk to my sisters friends with that amount of disrespect 😭
I’m a younger Gen Z generation too and they are so intimidating and they give us a bad reputation
I’m one of the younger gen z
EHY ARE THEY DOINF THIS?? I WAS PLAYING OUTSIDE EATING DIRT WHEN I WAS THEIR AGE WHY SRE THEY GOING INTO SEPHORA
Most 10 year olds don't need this much skincare at all.
Although, when I was their age, maybe a bit older, I had terrible acne and I didn't have any skincare other than face wash and some stuff from target. Never been to sephora.
i was litterly making magic potions from tooth paste and shampoo and i litterly used my moms cream and made the whole couch white- but these kids are litteraly putting on makeup! I dont put on makeup unless my parents tell me to if its a birthday or smth!
I’m also a younger gen Z (2009) and I think that kids shouldn’t go to Sephora without a guardian present
honestly they should have a "you break it, you buy it" policy and make the parents come in and pay for the destroyed products so they can finally teach their kid some manners :/
theyre testers
This is the same vibe as that one restaurant who charges parents a 50$ fee if their kids are misbehaved or noisy.
This used to happen. A girl in my school did this once and the store called her mom (they made her sit and give the phone number) sadly kods wouldnt give the phone number today cuzz they do not responr to authorities
There's a huge difference between testing and vandalizing. The parents absolutely need to be held accountable.@@viviannasunshine
@@hilderenshof2476 And even if they did, the parents back up the child's sh*tty behavior.
As a 15-year-old who is too ashamed to go to a Sephora because I feel too young, I am ashamed of this kids...
Frr I went for the first time to a Sephora a couple months ago with my back then 16 year old friend just so she didn't have to go alone. I was so ashamed of being there. I, too, feel like I'm too young to enter to a Sephora, and these kids enter there like it's nothing 💀
@@Fatherless_behaviour They literally have no shame :*)
i went there for the first time at 15 and i felt too young to go there 😭
love ur pfp btw@@Fatherless_behaviour
I agree with you and I think they’re gonna ruin this generation and also the next generation
My daughter goes into Sephora with me from time to time and has been telling me all about the "Sephora kids" for a week or so now. She talks about how disrespectful, wasteful, nasty and rude that behavior is. She's 10. This kind of behavior is 100% on the parents who have apparently never learned how to tell their precious little princesses NO.
I’m just like that, thank you for sharing a great example of a 10 year old with a brain because most of my peers lack one.
Im 10 and I’m just like this little girl I always clean the testers and I get mad because I won’t be able to try them because there always ruined
@ville__ bro no one asked you💀
Im around the same age and I have gone into Ulta barely even have asked anyone for help and even if I do I try not to bother anyone and I am nice to the worker and I rarely even try testers since sometimes I already know what shade, and what product I’m in there for. So these kids definitely where raised to get everything they wanted
I agree with you, these parents need to start watching over their kids more often
It feels like kids that are trying to be kids, but in a world where social media is making them grow up way to fast
compounded by diabolical rearing. To be frank, no parent should ever expose their children to social media (and the Internet in general) in the first place, let alone give them any pieces of electronics.
FYI: while it is part of a Sephora employee’s job to keep the store neat and tidy for customers, it is not their job to clean up after YOUR CHILDREN who shouldn’t even be there to begin with. That is not something they are meant to do. That isn’t even in the job description. There shouldn’t even be an argument for this.
Exactly! No one should have to clean up after these kids. It's disgusting 😡
Lol when I @crazystupidlovething worked at Ulta this lady let her baby grab a lipstick tester and smear it all over the floor my manager had to go up to the lady and tell her like hey watch ur child look at what they did 😩😩😢 lol then my coworker had to clean up the red smeared lipstick so glad they shut the location down but hate how they did it during the pandemic LmAo 🤣 they had us waiting thinking we were gonna come back
They should have a age limit and they shouldn’t even let kids go in there unless they r a baby
I am 11 years old and I get all my glosses, perfumes, powders, nail polishes and hydrating face masks, moisturizers, sunscreen and mascaras from sephora. I don't use drunk elephant for one, and everything I mentioned above is my extent of makeup. Kids younger than me playing with foundation is strange because at this age, youthful skin might get hurt using those. And I use the samples properly, so yk not all kids are bad only those who never got a smack and respect for people from their parents. I actually buy stuff by saving my allowance.
@@crazystupidlovethingdid you copy the comment above you
I honestly think it’s a parenting issue. Admittedly, I have an 11 year old sister who I on TH-cam shorts, and yes she enjoys makeup, but she would never demand expensive products, and has never been anywhere near a Sephora. She knows better than to destroy displays or mix products together. She asked for Heelys and stuffed animals and a silk for Christmas. THAT IS NORMAL PRE TEEN BEHAVIOR. the Sephora kids are spoiled brats 🤦🏼♀️
finally an eleven year old I can relate to🤦
exactly as a person around that age i like makeup skincare but i don’t mess up stuff bro. it’s defo a parenting issue even if u have a device all ur life you should know thats not right
Oh dear that's not very good i have a younger sister like that 😄 soooooo good. Not
Exactly! My girls are 10 & 12 and got one drunk elephant product to share between them for Christmas (from their aunt, not me lol) but they are taking such good care of it. They clean the outside of it and all. They were grateful just to be allowed to have it even though they absolutely don't need it. They would NEVER go into a store and destroy things like this. It's awful. Their friends wouldn't either. I don't know where these kids come from. It's absolutely the parents fault.
@@thebechtelbunch7811 so true!!!
My younger sis (10 years of age) has terrible acne we went to Sephora to get concealer by Make up by Mario.(She’s amazing at behaving) Shewas so nice to the lady at the desk I walked away for a couple minutes the worker kept complementing her and stated many times she was so nice I’m so lucky to have her as my sister.
Your sister is such a sweet girl! W to her for not being crazy and destroying the stuff there
She sounds like an absolute QUEEN!
I'm 10 as well and the only 'makeup' I use is lip balm/lip gloss. I honestly don't know why ppl my age are crazy like this-I once went to sephora for my mum and my sister and I saw this girl(about 9/10) was literally crying for a freakin drunk elephant AND glow recipe! I swear to god this crazy shit NEEDS to stop, I apologise for the behaviour these BRATS are doing😅
i know you didnt ask, and im not saying she doesnt already clean her face cause i know very well how persistant acne can be! if you would like, something that helped me lots with my cystic acne was cleansing twice when i do it, first to get gunk off of face from the day and the second i let sit for about a minute. if she cleanses this could help her a bit! Again not trying to be mean at all, i just like trying to help others who may struggle with acne. I would also suggest cetaphil for cleanser and moisterizer as its pretty inexpensive but works sooooo well. You dont have to listen to me by any means but if it means anything you can lhk that acne doesnt define her worth or beauty, its very normal and theres so many people who will back her up.
@@kyliehearn what happened?
Of course it's mainly the parents, and influencers causing this.
However I'm also quite disappointed in Sephora in the states. Why isn't the store saying "No. You can't do that"?
Why isn't security in the malls throwing these children out for vandalism?
Why aren't the stores locking these (expensive) products and testers behind cabinets until these children learn how to behave?!
So glad that Sephora isn't in my country after hearing this. I've never seen stuff like this happen when I go into a store that has make up and skin care products for testing.
@@Raven.Mad.Hatter i'm unsure if said brand is in my nation
Sephora should escort these kids out and have security call their parents. That is unacceptable behavior destroying property that is not theirs.
That would be common sense..something the world is greatly in need of.
@marilynbrown5274 yes seems like a no brainer. These kids need some consequences that clearly aren't coming from their parents
I wholeheartedly agree
Charge them. Bill the parents
I genuinely don't understand WHY that isn't whats happening - I can not fathom how the company isn't enabling policies to not allow them in without an adult. I might be a little crazy, but in this regard I swear its not my insanity, I remember stores used to do those kinds of policies ALL the time and it's never been deemed illegal or a violation/discrimination against anyone. There's a shop by my mom's house that to this day has policies that large purses aren't even allowed inside the store and have to be left at the register if you want to shop.
My sister used to work at Sephora and Ulta. The stories she would tell us when she would come home were crazy. One kid destroyed a $300 display including the makeup on it and also broke perfume testers too. These kids need to be stopped.
Edit: thanks for the likes!
Please tell me that child’s parents had to pay for that display and makeup
@@Snowleopard110 I never actually found out. my sister did not stay long enough for the aftermath of it
They need to be stopped immediately.
I don't even know less than half of these products are , (do you not ask why I said this ... Yes I'm 14 years old)
I’m just fairy in ultra🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🧚♀️🧚♀️🧚♀️🧚♀️
This is vandalism. Especially the candles. My granddaughter is 10 and I am trying to keep her on track for acting 10. I would never allow a 10-year old in a store alone and I would never let her destroy things like this. Never ever would I allow her to speak to an adult - or any person-that way. She likes make up but we don't allow her to wear it. She can use lip balm and her mom paints her nails at times. She got a Dr Teal's bath set for Christmas. She's happy with it. It's enough.
Exactly.We taught our kids to respect others and their property.
I was just looking at those candles the other day and almost choked on my coffee when I saw the price tag! 😯 I can't imagine acting that way at any age... I'm really, really scared to see what type of adults they will be 🤢😵😢
That sounds perfect. I don't think kids should be on social media at all. I can't believe how many parents allow their kids to be use tik tok and instagram with zero parental supervision...
@@CrustyUggThe thing is, those apps are all 13+ but ANYONE can make an account still! Same with TH-cam. The amount of kids I’ve seen on here, back-chatting adults while going “I’m 10 and I can do what I want” is nuts! It makes them big targets for predators too. I always wonder where the parents are
Yea. The store manager should have called security on them.
Im 15 and i enjoy going to sephora. Ive already made this effort before but im gonna make an even bigger effort to be nice to sephora employees because they go through so much atp, these kids have no idea how expensive makeup and skincare is to both make and purchase
I went into Sephora with my mom today, and the workers looked freaking miserable. I am in my mid-teens, and I couldn't fathom the amount of trouble I would be in if I acted like them.
Age doesn't matter when it comes to respect and human decency.
@Camrynns y'all get mad at us for acting immature and then you get mad when we act mature, fucking pick one
@CamrynnsYou always need to find a reason to hate on teens and kids. Get a grip.
These kids don't have consequences for their behavior.
@Camrynns
Be nice. It's endearing.
Sephora needs to make a rule that they can’t come in without their parents. This is infuriating.
Or kick them out! No store needs to put up with this! Parents or no entry.
The problem is the parents don't do anything if they are there
I think Claire's should use this opportunity to market towards this demographic, adding in skincare thats more age appropriate such as a basic moisturizer with a cute fruity label on it for the scent. More clear and glitter glosses, and body sprays that appeal to this age group with fruity names, pretty colors and busy labels. Sephora is supposed to be for an older demographic and it's crazy to think two years ago I never saw a child unless it was someone's kid waiting annoyed around their mother to get out of shop. Times are changing but I don't think they need to put the parents through hell for a 50 dollar product they don't understand fully or that their mother can't even justify the price to buy for themselves. A cheaper, cuter more age appropriate alternative at Sanrio or Claires should be their go to.
amazing idea! clair’s was so big, idek what happened 😭
actually im 80% sure claires has tried to do this but kids dont want to buy things from claires because its not "trendy or cool" they want the real things like they see on tiktok
The kids want the brands they see on TikTok because they’re luxurious and recommended by influencers, Claire’s could never.
I wouldn't put any type of make-up or lotions on my body from Claire's at all.The FDA had the make-ups,lotions etc tested,and it was found they all had Asbestos in the products.Claire's still hasn't bothered to remove these items nor bothered to address this health issue.Kid's shouldn't be wearing make-up to begin with.Keep to lotions,and skincare to get rid of acne.Make-up is the last thing kids should be thinking about.
They'll probably just trash Claire's then..esp since the price tag isn't very high objectively smh
When I was 16, I kept my promise to get very good grades in high school that year, so my father, as a gift, came with me to a little tattoo store to do a supervised little side nose piercing I wanted as a present, which he payed for. At the same time, I was still playing evry weekend hide-and-seek with my friends in the streets and parks, buying pokemon cards, jumping the rope,... My family used to have a PC at home which I rarely used, I preferred to read books like Harry Potter and comic magazines like Witch, drawing manga, or playing with the game boy.
I'm 32 now and... WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON?
Young people please, you don't need to "grow fast", just enjoy the different stages of life. There's time for everything in life, trust me, don't screw your childhood because it'll never come back. And trust me too when I tell you that at 16, 17 even 19 you're still mentally a child in many ways.

Those kids are gonna destroy their skin with that
lmaoooo retinol at age of 10??? its totally on their parents at this point for not knowing how chemically strong product their kids are buying

you actually have a reason to use it@@m4tta
Im 17 and i dont even know what rentinol is 💀
Wait, seriously? At 10, the only skincare they should want is Lip Smackers or Burt's Bees. 13 for Hard Candy and L.A. Colors. Sephora is for people who make their own $ to buy it.
(Edit: I forgot about face wash and sunscreen. I don't use sunscreen and I use face wash as a part of my bathtime routine so I didn't consider it as a part of the skincare routine.)
or for women who have men who want to spoil us ☺️
Well, to be fair, I didn't do makeup when I was 13 beyond chapstick and nail polish. But at 35, I still haven't stepped foot into a Sephora to make a mess.
I didn't know kids in NYC could get jobs that young besides babysitting and walking dogs...
nah fr when I was younger I wanted lelly kellies
imo 13 year olds from my experience arint this barbaric its prob mostly 12 at 10 but i do agree and if i have a child and they turn like 13 i am only givin them like a face wash/ cleanser a moisturizer and a sunscreen thats it and there should def be like a money cap cause i aint giving 50 dollars for you to buy a single moisturizer lol

13 is 100% still too young for Sephora. 18 and up would make way more sense.

I'm only asking because although I wasn't interested in makeup at 16 (still not at 27 💀) I know that many are & I don't believe in the whole "no responsibility for your actions until 18" because that seems to be causing a lot of cognitive dissonance for many people to decipher right from wrong & pushing the boundaries so far then hiding behind being a minor.
I'm not saying minors should be responsible for things like the horrendous se**ual crimes that involve adults & stuff, but that shouldn't spill over in to EVERY single thing holding absolutely no responsibility.
Well,maybe around 15-16 and up I'd say.
I mean,it's common for some teenagers to wear makeup at that age.

I used to work at Sephora. They really do drop their kids off knowing they're going to cause chaos. There was an instance when a bunch of 11-13 yr old boys and girls came in and starting PAINTING THEIR FACE with makeup. They were mostly white with dark brown makeup on...
I was having none of it. I told them to clean it off and to leave, respectfully. I told them this was a place of business and not a playground. All of my coworkers thanked me, but I was just doing what I thought was right.

MAKE the parents pay.
Guarantee you they wont do it.

It’s crazy how different kids will turn out based on how the parent takes care of them,I can’t imagine my 10yr old sister going into Sephora and doing this.
Kids should not be allowed in Sephora without their parents. This has to be enforced by the store. Not sure if they can do that though. Hopefully this is a phase and it will not last very long!
They could have some bouncer system that checks for ID like bars do, and if you don't have any form of ID you need parental supervision
@@CCCubeCandy No, that's probably too extreme, most people don't get a government issued id until they're in their late teens or early adulthood. The employees should just be advised to ask where the kid's parents are if any enter the store.
They absolutely can do that. Mattress stores often have signs saying they don’t allow anyone under 18 to shop alone 🤷🏽♀️ bc who wants dirty wild kids jumping on a mattress?
@@poooopoo Yeah Because really not all kids are like ruining everything in the store.
Agreed
I'm 12, and I can't believe the audacity of these 4th and 5th graders. The only time I've been in a sephora is when I went with my mom, maybe twice. The skincare smoothies, and especially the mixing with the fingers, are making me gag. I also blame the parents. This is utterly appalling and disgusting.
personally i think most 5th graders are mature enough to not mess it up but still not every 5th grader is mature
I agree 100%. I'm 14 and whenever I go into a sephora im always super respectful and am so careful not to be burden. its so disgusting and I see the 10 year olds who go into stores like sephora, Lululemon, etc (spoiled kids) with no respect for anything around them in my town. these children think they own the world and its truly ridiculous.

I experienced this last summer. I’m in my early 30s. Went into a Sephora with a friend who was visiting from another country, and it was PACKED with kids (probably because it was summer vacation). I had no idea what was going on, but my friend was looking for a new foundation and I wanted to show her Fenty because she’d never seen it in person, so decided to go ahead and look for it through the sea of children. Almost all the testers were gone (now I see why), and we couldn’t get someone to help us figure out her shade the 20 mins we tried because they were too busy dealing with actual 11-year-olds. Eventually we went to the perfume section (the only child free space) and the employee there recommended we go to the Sephora in the super high end mall in my city because it would be more chill. We left and my friend went the next day (I was at work) and said it was a much better experience. Not only are these kids making a mess out of the store, but they can cause said stores to lose paying customers with their antics.
sephora in another mall still goes partly to sephora in general??
@@SpiritsofMercy Yes it goes to the company, but there's still specific sales targets stores have to reach coz nobody wants to pay for a store that's only copping losses and not making any profit. So they might end up closing the store causing employees to lose their jobs, customers having to travel further etc. Also, it diverts those kids to another store that they're just going to destroy too.
as an 11 year old, i apologize on behalf of my species. what they are doing is just plain rude, they have no respect for the employees time and effort..
Species ? 😭💀
Sephora can easily stop this by making a store policy no one under 16 without a guardian. What I'm most shocked by is parents leaving 10yr olds in a mall ALL ALONE! WHERE ARE THE PARENTS?!?! They know there's creeps everywhere right? So many kids go missing n they just drop them off at the mall? What if there's a shooter? And ur not there to protect them? I dunno my daughter is 11 n yes she loves to play with my makeup n skin Care. But I will say she does treat it with respect. She loves to try my face masks n stuff. N I don't mind because she acts right. And I would NEVER leave her alone in the mall no way. But that's just me. The kids act like that because the parents aren't being parents. I bet you they all have parents who are their "friends" n probably never punish them. I'm friends with my daughter but I'm her mother first. Come on PARENTS step up n be a real parent. If I ever found out my daughter went in a store and was acting like an animal she'd be in so much trouble.
I know! And as a teenager myself reading this I totally agree, when I was their age I certainly wouldn’t be allowed to go alone, let alone the bad parenting these kids have on them.
It’s kinda normal to be dropped off at the mall from ages 13+
Recently an 11 y/o got dropped off at a mall by her mom, ALONE and got violently SAed by a man. I don't know why parents these days think that their braindead ipad kids are capable of independence.
13+ is fine
I know a lot of 8th grade+ who go to school with makeup and not doing this shii
It’s not that weird to go to the mall alone. What if there’s a shooter at their school? You can’t shelter them completely.
Thanks Sephora kids for getting some store products completely locked, they're some stores that have essentially everything under the glass cage that we all hate because of them.
Rightttt like stores can’t trust adults not to steal anymore…now they can’t trust children to have public decency and manners. Makes me not wanna go outside anymore.
honestly I think before we blame the kids we should look at why they are acting like this and at least put some blame on their parents for not teaching their kids manners.
im 10 but i havent even been to sephora in my life but they all blame me for destroying everything in sephora ????? :( i did nothing
At the store I work at, we started putting only 1 or 2 products out for certain brands and keeping the rest behind the register or in the back room because we kept finding completely empty displays minutes after we filled them... and when the cameras would get checked, it would be middle or high schoolers shoving all the products in their bags. This was basically a daily occurrence for a long time before we got better security and started tracking them down and getting them charged with theft, but it still happens a lot. It's also sad because we get a lot of paying customers thinking we're out of stock and asking where the products all are. But if we put them all out, they would be stolen by kids by the end of the day and we WOULD be out of stock. We made that mistake before.
@@ari.worsley Yes.... and no.
I can remember being 10 (30 now) and never would I have *EVER* done what some of these wild ass children are doing now. The audacity they have, not just in stores, but really anywhere in public. They act like actual heathens.
Yes, it *is* on parents to a point, because no matter how good a parent you can be, no matter how much you drill proper etiquette and morals into your kid's head, your child will act how they wish outside of your watch. Especially pre-teens. All those hormones and new societal pressures they endure while trying to figure themselves out. Some of my own friends at the time were a testament to that since some of them would act out when we were on our own when I knew damn well their parents were present in their lives (not including usual pre-teen/teen angst of "ugh my parents suck"). Hell, one friend that was well-behaved in public was actually abused to hell and back at home because she loved HP, and her mother literally beat her with a bible and called her a witch! You would think she would have been one to act out!
I don't know what could actually even begin to fix this problem of Gen Alpha/Young Gen Z kids acting like it's Lord of the Flies out here beyond banning TikTok as a platform and keeping them off of social media. It's like a virus rotting their little impressionable brains. Let's not even get into the volatile political climate they are growing up in. Honestly, if I was a kid now, I can't say for sure if I wouldn't have turned out just the same with all of everything going on.
This isn’t completely the kids fault. Parents should ofc be monitoring what there kids or doing (or some other adult). Parents should also monitor what they watch on tiktok/ other social media. Another reason why tiktok is for 13+

I am 14 years of age almost 15, and I’ve always been embarrassed to go into ANY makeup store. I honestly don’t even have desire to wear makeup either nor have I ever asked for it in my life. It’s so sad seeing these kids obsessed with makeup.
I honestly and truly agree with there being an age restriction at Sephora or any makeup store. You want to fool around and act like a child? You are getting treated like one and you now need an adult. It’s funny how kids demand to be treated like an adult but do stuff like this. 🤦♀️
well said and also social media, parents need to keep an eye on what content their little ones are seeing online

I work in a toy shop and this is exactly what kids are like in stores, that’s exactly the mess they leave - but it’s a toy shop, so that’s to be expected, it’s part of our day to tidy up after them. But this is not a toy shop, it’s a makeup store, so the standards are entirely different and honestly it’s bloody disgraceful
Parents absolutely need to be more responsible for their children if this is how they behave
Just because it's a toy shop doesn't give the kids the right to destroy a place of business...kids know right from wrong, and some parents act like their kids can never be told no and never have to clean up.
As a 16-year-old. This is definitely a parenting issue and personally my parents will never let me talk to them that way or do stupid stuff like this and I wouldn’t ever see myself doing stupid stuff like this and the fact that they’re just getting away with it is crazy.
110% a parenting issue.
I could never have imagined acting like that at 10, my mom always made sure to teach me empathy and to understand that my actions affect other people.
Do they not teach punctuation anymore?
@featherytoad3713 No one cares about proper punctuation it's literally the internet. It's not an English essay it's really not as deep as you think it is.
I have to blame the parents. There's serious problems with the way kids have been raised. And the parents should be financially responsible for the destruction.
this is a new generation of horribly self conscious children. kids should never have to "beautify" themselves or worry at all about their appearances beyond being hygienic. i cant imagine the effects this new wave of overconsumption will cause.
Nah its not even that deep there just trying to be trendy and buying into the skincare bs.
More like lack of self-consciousness.
People are already saying on TikTok, that they will have to learn the hard way. If they won't take no for an answer from parents or Sephora employees when it comes to ingredients like retinol and glycolic acid, they will just have to experience their face burning and skin peeling to get humbled and realize they shouldn't use them so young.
It has nothing to do with "beautifying". It's about entitlement and thinking they're cool if they use these products.

I worked at ulta this last holiday season and shout out to the young girl around 12 years old who was extremely patient kind and respectful to me and my time. I enjoyed helping her find her blush so much she was refreshing compared to the usual stuff you see. Her mom was also really kind and I saw them off work at the mall a few weeks later and wished them happy holidays. Hope they’re doing well.
Shoutout to the good parents who teach their kids kindness and respect for people who work in customer service. We all love you 🙏🏼
❤️❤️❤️ there's a lot of crazy kids out there and bad parents, but there's even more good people who teach their kiddos right. I was obsessed with makeup around that age too but was always taught to be kind and not use a tester. Everyone was so nice!

This is disgusting not to mention the amount of other fires that Sephora employees are expected to put out. As a former cast member, I can tell you that between making sure Everyone gets helped, keeping inventory in stock in the holidays, keeping an eye out for theft, and making sure testers are clean and sanitized every day… Wild packs of children on top of that is INSANE
but like thats what you should of expected
It’s really not. They didn’t sign up to be babysitters, the parents are meant to be supervising them and keeping an eye on them.
A lot of the people who work at Sephora are licensed makeup artists who make above minimum wage, and who have their own clientele on the side. They are *_PROFESSIONALS_* and they make the money of a professional. They are not expecting to babysit brats, and have that interfere with their licensed work (because it is nowhere in their job description to be a babysitter). What they *_DO_* expect is to come to work and deal with customers who have decorum and class, who won't tear the place down and have their mini-me in tow, helping destroy the place. We are there to do what a person with a PROFESSIONAL LICENSE does; not to be your babysitter! Go be entitled somewhere else!@@tinnavigdisgunnlaugsdottir9499

I’m not an adult, I’m not even a teenager and looking at this happening it’s just genuinely disgusting. I feel so sorry for the poor employees who have to clean up all that mess-
10 years old and just being dropped off at the mall??? I wasn't allowed in the mall by myself until I was 15 (but then again my parents were kind of strict). I know of at least 2 Sephora stores in my area that have put signs that say things like "All Minors Must Be Accompanied By An Adult" because of the sheer destruction these kids leave behind!
Edit since II was on mobile before:
Seeing all those testers being destroyed makes my blood boil! Seeing all those bronzers and blushes with the nail line down the middle defintely makes me think that they were copying a tiktok influencer who does that to their own products. This all reminds of an incident that happened when I worked at Bath & Body Works. Girls would just walk in, go to the Warm Vanilla Sugar, spray it all over themselves, and then walk out like it was their own room. Thing is, not all of them would use the tester! When an object is made into a tester, you have to do all sorts of steps to catalogue it as such. One time a group of girls came in, took the non-testers, and started spraying them. The manager was fed up at that point because that was product lost (3 spray bottles were used at $20 each, so that was $60 of product lost). She asked if the girls were paying for it and they said no. When asked why they didn't just used the tester, they said it was because they wanted to use something new/fresh. When asked that they pay for the product they wasted, they tried to bolt but security had been called already. Their parents were MORTIFIED when they were called. One Dad basically shoved the spray in his daughters hand and said if she didn't used it everyday until the last drop was gone that she was never going out anywhere without BOTH her parents at her side at all times until she turned 18.

@@roden70 We were all trained to look out for large groups of people coming in at the same time because they would crowd around a display and while some were checking out or testing the product, one or two others would pocket small items.

I have an idea for Sephora and ulta, make a playpen for those things.
im rlly senistive to makeup but when i went to sephora like a year ago, we tested makeup for fun too! and the employees didnt mind bc we damn well knew we shouldnt destroy things!
Parents need to do better and teach these kids respect. Destruction is tolerated in today's society, and that's why they do it because there are no repercussions.
I remember looking at some of the makeup samples, wondering what on earth happened to them: the stick of a lip gloss bent in half, lipsticks that look as if someone pulled the entire thing out the tube, and the pump being completely destroyed. Now I know for a fact it was these "Sephora Kids" who did this abomination. Really makes me mad how their parents arent teaching them discipline and they're all the byproduct of Ipad kids.
It’s sad to see how now all tweens even the respectful and responsible ones who go into Sephoras get weird looks from people because of these “Sephora kids”
Yes! I’m almost 13 and I have a basic care routine (cleanser, serum moisturizer, sunscreen and what not, but I have other things from birthdays and Christmas) and whenever I go into Sephora all of the stuff is so gross when I try to properly test it, I can’t. Most of the time I try to tidy it up but sometimes you need a deep clean with that stuff lol. I am really sorry to all of the people who go into Sephora and have to deal with some of the kids in this generation.

to you guys in replies - its better to go to Rossmann or Hebe. if youre dealing with acne etc then they have prpducts for this and you will avoid weird looks.

As a younger teenage girl. These younger kids absolutely appall me. Ive seen lots of groups of 8-10 y/o's just honestly completely vandalising the store. And I think its pretty unfair that if sephora adds an age limit its probably going to be 16+ which sucks for people like me who genuinely just want to go into sephora to get a new lipstick or eyeliner etc. These kids are so unbelievably entitled its disgusting.
I don't mean to insult or anything, my comment comes from respect
But whi would you want to use make up if you're under 16?
Not to be rude, I promise, maybe I'm old fashioned or whatevs, but I don't think sephora is for people under 15
@mane53017 I don't wear a lot of makeup, usually I just use mascara, blush, and a more neutral toned lipstick or lip gloss. If im going to an event I might use eye shadow and eyeliner.

There should be an age limit. To not only protect from this but theft and the cost it takes to have more employees to clean.

@SanrioLover766 That's BS. With that "logic" we should also let toddler run into adult toy stores and let them chew on the dildos. Or a 4 year old into a jeweller and play marbles with pearl necklaces. Or allow 12 year olds into night clubs. Well, none of that is allowed, now is it? And you know why? Because it's either forbidden or those ages simply have no reason to be there. Just like at freakin Sephora where 10 year old with their $10 pocket money have no damn purpose. Being little shits that only destroy products for some ridiculous "challenge", and are a flat out nuisance to shoppers and employees alike is NOT a good reason for them to be there. Damn I miss those days where parents would bring children into this world to raise them as respectable human beings. Children, because that is what a 10 year old is, should play with slime from the toy store, not serums from Sephora.
And because ew as an adult I don’t want to buy products from a place that looks like that 🤢
They're literally not being raised😭 they're being influenced by adults on tiktok because the parents don't want to parent so they gave them a phone and social media
At this point these tiktok "influencers" are raising these kids and not their parents 😞
I do genuinely really want an age limit implementation into Sephora, but I think 18 is a bit too high like those women in the comments said. I’m 15, and I and many other teens need/want skincare and want to use makeup, which is a totally appropriate age to use products like that, so I think it’s a bit unfair that only adults would be able to shop there. Most teens are respectful as well, it’s mainly these kids under 13 that are being disrespectful. Personally I believe that if you are under the age of 13 or 14 you should have to be accompanied by an adult in the store.
@therianchomper263 I relate. Ive personally struggled with acne a lot ever since I was 10, and I never even did anything abt it until a year ago when I found a prescribed treatment. seeing these kids who have flawless skin just makes me go insane, cuz why are they buying all those products?? they don't need them they're fine 😭

The fact that adults are leaving kids at the mall with their Credit card. These skincare products are not for 7-10 year olds!

I’m glad my parents gave me a childhood but if Gen-alpha was this bad imagine gen-beta.
I recently experienced this at an Ulta, except their moms were there, doing nothing to rein them in. A group of about 15 girls shoved into me multiples times and just did not know how to behave appropriately in that environment. However, I understood it was a really exciting experience for them and really only felt annoyed at the moms. What blew my mind, though, was the way these girls attacked the Ordinary skincare; no 10 year old needs to be shopping for Ordinary products. They should have been spending their money on fun bath bombs or nail polish, not asking their moms about retinols.
As a 12-year-old, I think it's crazy how 10-year-olds ruin Sephora. I recently went to one with my grandma and avoided the skin care section because I have the skincare I need (Cleaner, Moisture, Water). I went to Rare Beauty section to try the blush and I remember waiting for a group of kids to stop playing with the blush. I tested the blush properly by putting a little dot on the back of my hand and found the one I wanted. I put this all back in the right way and mess-free. I got other things too, but Druck Elephant and other brands need to be in a separate kid-free zone.
Edit: Thanks for the likes. My mom let me get some make-up if I spent my own money on it when I was 11. I started at Target and I got some eyeshadow. Then there were more times when I got more make-up. Then my grandma asked for what I wanted for Christmas/b-day (my Christmas and birthday are close to each other). I said Sephora gift card because I wanted some good quality makeup. I got an $100 gift card. I thought I was only getting $50. Then a few weeks after Christmas, I went to Sephora with my Grandma to spend time with her and get good quality make-up.

Honestly, as an 11-year-old, I never went to Sephora. I feel like I'm a "normal kid". The only time I went to Sephora was when my mom wanted to get makeup, and I did nothing. I just watched her. Seeing people my age doing this feels so horrible, like ew, it's disgusting.I'm sorry you guys have to go through this. People my age should be going to Claire's. Yes, I stopped going there long ago due to my mom, but I still love that place. This is honestly insane. I'm not sure what's going on in those kids' minds, thinking that this is vandalism. I enjoy makeup myself, but never wear it unless my mom says so on special occasions. But I wouldn't go crazy over stuff like this. I wouldn't demand stuff, not everyone is a Sephora kid. But the ones who are spoiled brats and disgusting, I'm sorry.
Get off the internet
people need it for dance competitions, acting, and its a hobby too. maybe fucking not generalize the 2 billions children?????
girl 11 is way to young for this platform you have to be 13 or up
be careful on this app, but I’m really proud of you regardless because not a lot of kids your age are this smart and mature
@@SpiritsofMercy why are you attacking people you sound like an angry 11-13 year old, but I understand
11:10 it infuriates me how children just think they can act like this. I’m disappointed in this generation. These children need to be disciplined.
Um this is not generation problem kids has always been sneaky and mischievous
Honestly I am a gem alpha and I couldn't even think abot behaving like a Sephora or iPad kid my mom would never allow behavior like that EVER
I saw some kids (maybe 6-7 years old) and they screamed when they saw Sephora and started doing weird dances outside of it. I think I saw them run inside. I think these kids were ‘Sephora kids’ too. 🤦♀️
that’s crazy… when i was that age i was only interested in zebra print and stuffed animals like i thought it was bad when i got online at 11 and was exposed to - a lot 😃😃. ur telling me 6-7 year olds are influenced by social media already like HOW. shame on these millennial ass parents who let their children have access to the internet
no same thoo i love my unicorns and my teddy bears glittered leggings and now 6-7 years olds are now into skincare which they don't need and makeup @@twothousandandchew
Dude 6-7 year old me was going to Disney land and Lego land. And building legos or buying princess stuff.
And they say that gen z is the worst….at least we still had a childhood.
@@AMS-tothepmFr. I’m 22, so a slightly older Gen Z, but I still remember not having internet access everywhere I went, not being on social media and just genuinely playing outside with friends during summer and having water fights! Everyone has become SO dependent on social media for happiness and it’s scary! Influencers are essentially raising children because the parents aren’t.
at that age.. i didn’t even want to GO too sephora with my mom. I didn’t even know what was trendy or whatever. I just followed my mom in there.
As someone who is 10 -15 I feel ashamed. Parents these days let their kids run loose and the worst part is is that not only are they making skin care smoothies but kidnapping. It’s not safe and kids are vandalizing things that aren’t theirs. I was disgusted when I heard the Summer Friday one because she put it on her crust lips and just threw it back and not only snatched it away from a customer.
I was 19 when I got my first pieces of M.A.C. makeup from Sephora. At 10 I was playing with dolls and watching cartoons!
Parents today need to start teaching their kids discipline instead of spoiling them every time they whine and cry!
As a kid I would have got a spanking if I I’d this. And I would hope I would! And would hope others would to.
Today when I went to Ulta to get a moisturizer, I was looking at the testers and they were all just destroyed so I decided that I would clean them so I cleaned them to help the workers out and they really appreciated it and I’m just gonna say, I agree with you this trend needs to be stopped.
The fact that when I was younger,I would only be in Sephora because I was forced to and I mostly found it sooo boring😭😭😭
I've never gone to a Sephora, but other makeup stores I go to because i'm forced as well
#1. These parents letting their 10 yrs olds loose unattended should be held responsible for the damages their little brats cause. As a Mom, I would be mortified to leave a 10 yr old at a mall like she was grown! Sephora should put Do Not leave Children Unattended signage up and when it happens next, call security on them and security can call their “parents” and threaten them with vandalism charges. Bet it’d stop then!
I agree! they def should do a do not leave children unattended. bc i feel like parents are leaving them there as like a second daycare.
i'm 13. when i was 11ish, my MOM took me to a sephora for the first time. she guided me through using the testers respectfully, choosing the right shade for my skin tone, the fact i DONT need $100 serums, etc. i got a foundation that i used as a concealer and a lipstick, but she would NEVER let me go alone at that age, and i don't think she'd let me go without an adult now even with my friends. it all goes back to the parents. there's nothing wrong with younger teenagers using makeup as long as you teach them how to use it responsibly.
I'm 13 too and my mom took me into Sephora at a similar age. Honestly she forced me in there. It was kind of just a drag along in a mall spree. She was getting some lotion recommended for me by her friend because they said my skin was dry. I didn't have much to do so I went around, cried to myself, looked at the different weird containers and cool models, and took a little eye brush tester tool thing. I was honestly too disgusted to use testers so idk how these kids see past that. Idk why I turned that into a story that added no use
Yeah i agrée this happened to me to I went there and got a concealer. That’s really it and I’ve only gone there one or two times
I'm a 14 year old.
I have only went to ACTUAL make up stores (here in Europe) with my mother when she wanted to look for a new perfume or nail polish or concealer.
So I've occasionally tried out eyeshadow or a shade of foundation on the back of my hand,while I ,in real life would in my age never use those.
I have literally only been using Mascara for about half a year now and ONLY because my mother let me.
I asked.
She Thought about it.
And then she allowed it to me and the next day after work gave me my first tube of mascara.
I don't even have that much of skincare.
I have something because of my acne and one for my dry skin.
Honestly corporations like Sephora are to blame. “The customer is always right” crap needs to end and employees need to be allowed to call out bad behavior and kick people out. Stores aren’t playgrounds or dog parks and companies need to take a stand and expect a level of respect from the customer.
It's frustrating because that "customer is always right" saying is supposed to mean that you can't tell the customer "no you don't want to buy this" when they're buying products, not that the customer gets to bully you and cause havoc at your place of work
kids under 16 need to be banned from sephora unless you have an adult with you omg
Idk 15 I think is fine or maybe even 14
@@vampqueen3440why do 14 and 15 year olds need makeup they can’t even buy with their own money?
i wish that wasnt a thing bro these kids are annoyingg@SanrioLover766
@SanrioLover766 and? there's people who go to sephora to actually TRY products before buying them, 10 is too fucking young to be roaming around makeup areas and touching samples, if they dont wanna get age discriminated then maybe dont fuck up the testers like they're the only ones who're gonna use it lmaoo
Nah 13+ is fine
As a millennial with no kids yet, seeing these kids with horrible behavior has been helpful on what NOT to do as a parent. I’m not raising iPad babies. It’s important to teach them to respect surroundings and be kind.
Yup if I was to have kids I don't want to raise them as iPod babies like honestly if they watch something they have to ask permission and or I have to supervise what they watch. Or I will also just decide what they watch lol
That's the problem lol all the smart people don't have kids get. All the idiots keep breeding.
I recommend toys minimal toys more diy crafts Getting off your phone around the child so they also don't see you on it scrolling. Letting them outside and playing side by side with them.
so i'm a 12 yr old girl. ive been to sephora one time. that one time i was 6. my mom jus wanted to get herself a new lipstick. i asked if i could get makeup so i can be pretty, and she took me to CLARIE'S. i got a fruity chapstick for like 3 dollars. still have that chapstick and its the only "makeup" i have. i love the chapstick and i didnt get upset about it. i wasnt chronically online at 6 because i didnt even have my own device. only the family computer. not even my place to talk about it but this is sad.
This is horrible, I didn’t go to Sephora till I was an adult and I could buy my own makeup. Thanks to my parents 😔 I wasn’t dropped off at the mall unattended till I was 17.
I'm 34 and went into Sephora for the first time a few weeks ago and was shocked about how many kids were inside running around, and I had tripped over.
It was insane.
I wasn't even into makeup and skincare at 10.
As a early teen, I completely agree with this. It is terrible and I feel so bad for the employees. The only reason I have gone to Sephora is to get my favorite fragrance.
Yeah, it's insane. I feel so awkward going into Sephora in the first place, (my parents never want to come in with me) i would never dare act like that. I only go in there from blush and conclerer since I have quite a lot of pimples to cover up, and I'm really pale so I use blush not to look dead. I have gone in maybe 5 times and I'm sure that I am the youngest person there (also a younger teen 13-15). so lucky I have never seen these kids irl
@@ummaynotbestraight fr, the testers at my Sephora are mostly clean, except the drink elephant section. 💀 I’m so glad I don’t act like that, and my parents never wanna come either! I have to drag them there or order online.
@ville__ yeah ok.. this TH-camr isn’t a bot that spams “I am better blah blah blah” in random comments.
Agree, I'm 15 and ive had a lot of break out on face so I go in to get products to help clear it up, or maybe even mascara or highlighter if mine is running out. When I was in there, I saw one of those "skincare smoothies" the preppies make and it was probably a 10 year old.
@@xemma_xoxo reallll. Like drunk elephant was literally made for adults.
IM 12 AND I DONT EVEN KNOW WHAT SEPHORA IS💀
For the damage that these kids cause in the Sephora stores, the parents need to be charged! Why aren’t the Sephora employees stopping these kids from destroying the isles of products??? I don’t want to shop in a store after a group of these DESRECFUL KIDS have been! Sephora: Kids under 16 must have an ADULT!! 😡
I went around with my 12-15 year old friends with no parents back in the day and none of us acted up. These parents are failing them. You'd think all these children have psychiatric or behavioral disorders. And yes parents should be charged and the kids should be forced to clean!!!!
What can they do? Ask them to leave? Then they say "no." Unlike before when we'd be embarrassed and maybe say a few things as we left, this new generation whip out their phones, hit record, mock the employees or play victim and then post it online. The employees aren't allowed to touch them. Companies can't even stop shoplifters these days, much less bratty kids, because of insane lawsuits. This is what happens when you get rid of accountability in the world. I mean seriously, if you were the Sephora employee, told them to leave and they rolled their eyes and told you no, what are you left with?
excactly! if i did any of that i would be in so much trouble, ebsides, wouldnt it be emmbarasing to destroy some display or the testers??
@@dostagirl9551not to mention the kids do buy things (with stolen money from mommy's purse) so the company doesn't want to get rid of them if they're customers
@@dostagirl9551 Every business has the right to refuse service. If these little hellions are disrespecting the store, the employees have a right to not check them out at the counter when they try to pay for their product. Corporate may not feel the same way, but something has to be done. I guentee you, I can spend a lot more than a 12 year old with their parents money!!
As a older gen alpha, I would like to apologize for how terrible my generation has been at places like Sephora and Ulta, and I would like to remind you all that not all gen alpha’s are like this. Thank you for listening.
Agreed
As an older Gen Z that's been on the internet for almost my entire life, it feels like the loudest people in the room represents an entire group, which really sucks. Sometimes I don't like my generation because I think their music taste is trash some trends they do is cringe and dangerous. Unfortunately, the internet is filled with misinformation, terrible news, entitled people, and creeps and the internet is not an accurate representation of life.
As an older gen alpha as well I have never been to a Sephora in my life I didn’t even know it existed until a few years ago and I can’t believe what the 8-10 year olds are doing
Im going to guess we are around the same age, I also think they are a problem. I usually just say I'm the youngest gen z to get away from the whole 'you must be the worst generation ever' thing.
@@ummaynotbestraight same
Saphora and ulta need to ban these kids from coming into the store on their own, they must be accompanied by an adult. What is sad is parents today have not taught their kids what respect is ,or just lock it all up so they can't get it ,or call the cops have them arrested for vandalism make the parents pay
fr what happened to parents taking responsibility for their children. like the trope where a child breaks something in a store and the mom immediately pays for it and doesn’t want trouble. now they literally laugh and go “how cutes my child huh?” while their “cutesy child” is fuckin up business cards at the receptions desk 😭
IKR like most of the time the moms are on their phone watching tiktok instead of supervising their child, smh.
i audibly screamed "NOOOO" when the first video of the skincare smoothie (even that name gives me the ick) came up.
sephora needs to make a rule that if you're under a certain age, you have to be with an adult that stays with you the whole time to make sure you don't wreak havoc on the testers!
