Śéphòrä

“DNA” tip 🖤🖤🖤

I did a good amount of research while attempting this, so please please take my advice. (Reddit is a god send and also another website purely for lvftèrś)

Sèphœrà uses UPS where I am, and ups generally doesn’t “lose” packages. And IF you tell them your package didn’t arrive, they will tell you to open a case with UPS and not them, thus you probably won’t get your refund.

Now this is what I did to get refunded, and a few extras you can do too 🖤

I ordered off my normal account, the one I’d use for buying things so it didn’t look SUS as I’ve never complained about not reviving an item. You’re going to want to order between 2-4 products (I ordered two palettes and my order was around $75) You can try for more but no guarantee it’ll work. Since they have been receiving so many orders, things tend to fall through the cracks and it’s much easier to say your order was messed up rather than it didn’t arrive.

Without saying word for word, this is what I emailed them the day my package arrived... “hello! I know your facility has been receiving many orders and I receviced my package today BUT I only received the sample products and beauty insider products and not the actual items I paid for! Am I expecting another package with my other items? If not, please refund my order and I will just purchase them in store as I’ve waited 3 weeks for this delivery only for it to be completely messed up! Thanks a bunch!”

And that’s it’s lol. It took 3 days for them to respond and they just straight up refunded my order and apologized for the inconvenience.

You need to tell them in the email that you want a refund and act like it was such an inconvenience that you waited so long and they still got your order wrong. You can say anything along the lines of

1. You only got the samples from your order

2. A product busted open in the packaging that ruined all the other products

3. You got the completely wrong order

4. You CAN say it didn’t arrive (but be aware they may make you open a case with UPS, just be prepared to say maybe it got stolen off your doorstep or whatever. I don’t recommend this option though)

Extras

So I waited until they had a really good deluxe sample they gave with a purchase and added it to my order. So not only did I get some bomb ass samples, I sold the one sample I received for $13..... and the other products I said I didn’t get for almost their same selling price. I highly suggest you pick some good samples and sell them (anything drüñk elephàñt sells super well).

You can probably do this 2 or so times going to your address and then hopefully you have a friend you can send stuff to on a separate account. Do not use your BI account for it every time, feel free to open up new accounts and be sure to claim a point item when you’re checking out as those sell fairly well too!!

Omg thanks! ❤❤❤

how would you lift an ipod nano then?

Well it’s 5 am and I’m still hyped up on adderall, so I guess now’s a better time than ever to write a post on Apple.

This is gonna be kind of like a general Apple lifting guide, with some specifics about the iPod thrown in.

For starters, try to go when it’s very busy; usually around holidays and on weekend afternoons.

To get an iPod/pretty much any product that’s on the shelves at the Apple Store, you can:- Literally just walk out with it in your hand. I’ve done this quite a few times, even with bigger electronics (that drone), and have never been caught. - Conceal when there isn’t anyone looking; it’s pretty small, you should be fine (gotta be comfortable concealing in a crowd). I find that this is easy to do when sitting down at one of the computers. You can even sit back and play around for like 10 or 20 mins, put the item in your bag very casually, and leave. Easy peasy.

Things to know beforehand:- Apple has tiny, discreet cameras in the ceiling; however, I’m almost positive they’re not actively monitored, and I personally don’t worry about them, especially on busy days. - Genius’ jobs are to provide technical support and make sales. They usually aren’t too pushy, but will approach you at least once with something along the lines of “Are you looking for anything specific today?”. You can say something like, “I’m just browsing a little, but thanks!”. Be polite, it helps. - That brings me to my next point: Apple has a special on-floor security guy that usually just kinda wanders around the store, looking serious and whatnot. Sometimes you’ll get lucky and they won’t be on duty. If they are, they’re actually very easy to spot; they’ll be the one person in the store just chilling out, waiting next to a table. Honestly these guys are mostly for show, I’ve never seen them being very attentive, but always exercise caution. - YOU. WILL. NOT. BEEP. Apple Stores don’t have sensors at the entrance. Not a single Apple product (cables, iPods, headphones…) is source-tagged. However, Apple does sell stuff from other manufacturers, some of which source tag their stuff (usually the more expensive items). You still won’t beep, but you will when you take that item into a different store that actually has sensors. So if you don’t have a car or somewhere to put that thing, plan on getting that item as the last part of your trip. - If you have an iPhone with the Apple Store app, use EasyPay to your advantage; when you et in the store, connect to its wifi. Then, open the Apple Store app and find the “EasyPay” button. Use this to scan barcodes of items you intend to lift. When you get to the screen right before you pay for the item, cancel the transaction. That way, on the off chance that you’re stopped on the way out, you can say, “ohmygosh I’m such a dunce, I can’t believe I got the wrong button! Here, just take it, I’m so stupid sometimes”. Play the forgetful-rich-kid type. A note, however: EasyPay will not work on, I assume, Apple products, like iPods and the Beats Pill+. I haven’t tried charging cables and whatnot though,so that might be good to check just in case. - Like I said before, most of the Geniuses aren’t Loss Prevention. At the stores I’ve gone to, it’s not like, say, Sephora, where they’ll memorize what you’ve got in your hands the second they see you carrying something. As long as you don’t carry like four iPods over to the other side of the store, the geniuses more than likely won’t care what you’re holding, unless they’re trying to encourage you to buy it. If that’s the case, I would say to just pretend to be indecisive about buying it until they leave. Most of the time they’re really busy, and won’t bother you too long. - Acting is fucking key here. You have to cover up whatever fears you have, completely. Maybe take some anti-anxiety meds beforehand if you know you can’t control it (haven’t actually tried this though, tell me how it goes). When you tell the Genius you’re browsing, you should make it look like you’re actually browsing, not just staring at the iPods trying to psych yourself up

The Apple Store is probably my favorite place to lift from. I get speakers, iPods, headphones, everything short of a phone or computer. I do walk-outs with beats headphones all the time, and even got a GoPro once (they stopped putting them out in the shelves since then rip). It’s honestly a booster’s dream, I’m gonna be so sad when iPods die off, I sell so many.

Anyways, hope this helps you Anon, good luck!

Hot topic employee told me their shoplifting policies without knowing I was a lifter

So me and my lifting friend entered a hot topic and the towers where going off so much and I’m super social so I was talking it up to almost all the employees and I was cracking jokes about how I worked there I’d snatch items away ( knowing daum well I was also shoplifting ) and one of them was telling me about how their towers where sensitive and all they could really do is ask to check your bag and then you could leave and I assumed it was the same case with box lunch since they’re a sister company and I proved that right because my friend got caught there and all they did was check her bags

JUICY WALMART INFO FROM LP

*my friend sent me this information that she gathered from someone at her work. Im just posting it on my blog for her. these are her exact words!!!*

“So recently an ex Walmart LP got hired at my work and y'all know I took advantage of this 100%. I had a million questions to ask, it’s not like he would suspect anything because I am LP as well. It wouldn’t be abnormal for me to have questions about other companies LP policies. So let me start by saying this, Walmart LP starts off at minimum wage in the state they are in. If you have some experience you get an extra dollar raise. Now I always thought they got a crazy pay due to how serious they take their job. NOPE! Minimum wage people!! Crazy! This person told me they were undercover LP, he would be the one who would walk around the store in plain clothes and have a radio in his back pocket and watch people. His store was in a very high crime area, around 1,000 thefts per week. On slow days he would sit in the office and watch cameras. On the more busy days or times he would be on the floor. He told me there were three steps he had to do in order to be able to detain someone: 

1.) watch you on the cameras/ on the floor pick up the item

2.) watch you conceal the item. Now this could be caught on camera or in person. He wouldn’t make it obvious that he was following people, a method he would he is be on the aisle next to where the suspected shoplifter was and watch through the tiny holes of the shelves and see them do it.

3.) watch you walk past the registers, where you could pay for the items. This shows you had no intent to pay for what you had on you. 

Now he told me when he apprehended people, he only had the rights to block. He could not physically put his hands on you and push you on where to go. Only stand Infront of the direction you were headed. He told me if people pulled knives or anything he would let them go. But if someone punched him or kicked him, he would punch or kick back but even THEN he still could lose his job. So I think him punching or kicking back was more of a personal view that he isn’t gonna let himself get beat up for a shitty paying job. He told me that he could chase people through the parking lot but he never would. If he did chase if was just for a physical description to give to the police to dispatch the description to any people in the area. 

If he was in pursuit of a suspected shoplifter, and he had 100% in his mind they were stealing he would first make a call to his ALPM. This stands for area Loss prevention manager. After that phone call he would call the police. 

I asked him how he knows someone is stealing and what key notes they look for, and he told me this.

Obviously they cannot suspect people due to the color of their skin or their gender. He would look at… 

1.) the way you are dressed 

2.) do you look paranoid, constantly look up at cameras or moving your head around? 

3.) going to every single area of the store such as first to grocery, then home, then toys, then cosmetics, then auto, ect. This looks like you’re looking for an opportunity to conceal. 

4.) do you look like you belong in the area that you’re looking at? 

5.) how do you portray yourself around other people? Are you constantly going to areas where other people aren’t? To avoid to get an opportunity to conceal? He told me his job at Walmart as LP was very dangerous and not worth the pay. He always heard stories of people getting knives pulled of them and guns as well. A lot of his co workers took that job seriously, for pay that wasn’t even worth it. I hope I was a help to you guys and the more I speak with this person the more info I will post. Thanks and stay safe. Don’t get cocky or greedy.”

any tips for IKEA?

I never tried lifting from IKEA before!! But there’s ton of blindspots so I cant imagine it being super difficult (: . As for smaller objects, I’d suggest concealing them in your bag inside a showroom, or open a closet or so “to look at the inside” and use the closetdoor as a shield for camera’s 👀. Also if certain items come in boxes, try concealing in there and pay at the self checkout!! Much lifting luck to you angel 🍀💖

[serpentlifts]

reasons why y’all should lift from ikea:

- the founder of ikea, ingvar kamprad, was a nazi sympathizer

- ikea is owned by charities, all run by ingvar kamprad, therefore none of its profits are taxed, making the ingka foundation (the charity that runs ikea) the largest charity in the world, with a net worth of $36 billion dollars. it is one of the most elaborate tax evasion schemes by a company to date.

- ikea partners with lumberers that do illegal logging in romania, russia, and many other european countries. they cut into virgin forests and green belt areas which destroy ecosystems and kill native animals. they also leave these forests a mess after they’re finished logging.

- ikea chooses not to adhere to cpsc (consumer product safety commission) guidelines and knowingly produce furniture that risks consumer’s health and safety in order to retain profit. well known cases of these risks include the malm dresser recall, where eight children had died from tip overs due ikea’s neglect in removing an unsafe product from the market.

- their meatballs and weiner sausages contained horse meat in several european countries amid the horse meat scandal. also, their chocolate cake was contaminated with coliform bacteria, which is found in fecal matter.

- ikea used cuban political prisoners as well as forced labor camps in germany to assemble and manufacture furniture to sell in the 1980s.

- furniture is poor quality and made to break in roughly two years, forcing consumers to return to buy more.

feel free to add more if you wish! these ones are just off the top of my head lol.

Hey y'all! The other day I went through ŁP reddit for about 4 hours. What I took back from it is a compilation on things I thought could be helpful to our community. These screenshots discuss tactics and strategies they use. One thing I can say is be SOOOO fucking careful guys. They know SO much. A lot of them are very good at their jobs. One slip up could mean getting caught. Use these to sharpen your skills. :)

wälłgréèns insight

so the other day i was talking to my sister who has worked at wáłgreens for almost the last five years, and she told me they have a new policy regarding stëaling.

to keep it short:

• They are not allowed to accuse you of shôpliftîng, (in fact they no longer use code 99)

• They can only and will only go up to your isle to stock and ask you if you need anything

• Now they will call the police if it reaches to a felony charge ($500 in my state but i know you guys aren’t that fucking stupid to do so in one trip at fucking wälgréens)

•She told me and I quote, “You could shove shit into your purse and leave if you really wanted to. But the next time they’re gonna get you the stink eye” ..

so really if you’re good at lifting, have no fear, wálgreens doesn’t give a shit about what you’re taking if it’s under a felony. be good at what you do, so you can keep utilizing this tip!

stay safe & thanks for reading 💕

Caught.

At Ralph’s/Kroger of all places 🙄

Thought what the hell, nobody pays attention at grocery stores anyway. Had a hat and my mask on, shorts and a T-shirt, trying to look as un-sus as possible. Filled up my reusable grocery tote and proceeded to the walkout method. I’m pretty careful and didn’t notice anyone watching or following me the entire time I was in the store.

As soon as I walked past those doors, 3 employees (2 uniformed, 1 plainclothes) asked if I had paid for those items and yanked the bag out of my hands, demanding to see a receipt. One of the LP then said “do you have a receipt? We’ll just call the cops, they’ll know.”

At that point I was like “fuuuuuck this” (because I have a prior record and can’t afford any crimes on probation) and just rolled my eyes and walked off into an adjacent neighborhood because I knew they’d record my license plate if they knew which car belonged to me. I ended up walking around to the back of the plaza where I had parked my car, climbed the fence separating the neighborhood and the parking lot, and got into my car and DIPPED.

Thankful for a few things:

That I covered most of my face (mask & hat) so when they review cams they won’t have a clear pic of my face

That he only got his hands on the grocery bag filled with goods and not my purse, which had my ID in it.

Don’t think I’ll be lifting groceries again, but glad I got away. Be careful y’all, and if you ever get stopped, RUN. LP ain’t shit, but cops are.

ïkëå haul mfers

found a cart inside with a receipt but also brought it my own so i can fake it when i left. Just loaded up my cart and walked past the checked as I was pulling out my receipt. No one looked or questioned me honestly was on a total power trip the entire time i was walking out the doors and unloading this into my car lmaooooo

honestly need more stuff for my apartment, so miiigghhttt go back in today/soon dressed completely different

[bigmagnetenergy]

reblogging my own post bc i literally went back and got a whole other cart of stuff three days later and not sussed once & got all the items i needed/wanted for my apartment 😌

and also y’all are sleeping on this walkout ☹️

[mauvekitty-deactivated20150511]

SORRY…. NOT SORRY

[liftingdaze-deactivated20150529]

Omg this is my dream. Did you put the shopper bag inside of something or did you just walk out with it? I dont think I would have another bag that is big enough..

[mauvekitty-deactivated20150511]

Yes, I stuffed it into a big tote purse, it didn’t fit all the way so I covered the top with a sweater and just walked out.

[jolietgratuit-deactivated201505]

Omgggg cosmetics freak me out like I’d much rather have something tagged the heck up and have SA/LP rely on that lol

[loss-encouragement-deactivated2]

But how did they not see you walk around the store with it before hand???

[mauvekitty-deactivated20150511]

I filled it up halfway at the high end section then finished at the lower side. I’m know they saw me ”shopping”, I wasn’t trying to be invisible, but it was also an hour before closing time. At that point they were just tired and wanted to go home. I don’t think they noticed me leave but probably realized I dissapeared after.

[heavenlylifter]

Please spread the word. I'm a LP for Target and we keep a log of all serial #s on all laptops, consoles, and TVs so when they go missing, we report the serial number. The lifter who took it is usually found because the police track it if it's connected to the internet. So PLEASE, don't lift expensive electronics because A. It requires tremendous skill to get it out of the store undetected, and B. They will track it if it's connected to the web.

oh yikes!!☝️☝️☝️☝️☝️☝️☝️☝️☝️☝️☝️☝️☝️☝️☝️☝️☝️☝️☝️☝️☝️☝️☝️☝️☝️☝️☝️☝️☝️☝️☝️☝️☝️

10 top ways shoplifters get caught

This was written by an LP, i merely copied and pasted it. REBLOG AND INFORM

Despite what you may have heard, there is no perfect shoplifting method. You can be caught NO MATTER how you try to steal. A lot of it is the luck of the draw. Is LP in the store? Are they busy with another shoplifter? Are they watching you? There is no way you can be sure. You can be sure however, that you significantly increase your chances of getting yourself caught when:

10)You carry a flat purse or back-pack: Fairly obvious, right? Not only is this an attention grabber, but it also makes the LP Agent’s job much easier. Your bag was flat, and then magically became full right after all the merchandise you were carrying disappeared. Did the LP Agent watch you fill your bag? That does not really matter. The LP Agent did not need to see concealment (See my article: The 6 Steps of Loss Prevention) to confidently make a stop on you. It is fairly obvious. Most LP Agents will make that stop. On top of being obvious, entering a store with an empty bag can also bump your charge from petty theft to burglary.

9)You over-act: You pick up the item you plan on stealing. You begin tapping on it, wiggling it, playing with it, and looking around like everything is cool. Yes, people actually think this works. When you take this approach you are basically telling LP Agents “Hey, I am not going to steal this! Look, I’m playing with it out in the open. I wouldn’t be doing that if I were going to steal it.” Then you steal it. Happens all the time.

8)You under-act: You pick up the item you are going to steal and immediately palm the item, or hold it behind something. You then quickly walk off to the most deserted part of the store. The race is on. The LP Agent knows he needs to get a view of you, either on camera or on the floor to witness the concealment.

7)You are overly friendly: You come in and immediately start chatting with store employees. You’re such a nice person! You would never steal. This will work when trying to deceive regular workers but LP is not falling for it. I have even had employees try to stop me from making an apprehension because they thought I was going to make a bad stop on that “nice” person. When I see someone being overly friendly with cashiers, managers or anybody with a name tag, I immediately become suspicious. They could be a genuinely nice person but nice people steal too.

6)You fail the “scare test”: When I suspect somebody is a shoplifter I will often give them the scare test. This means I will have several people walk past the area where my suspect is looking at items. A normal shopper will pay little to no attention to who is around them. A nervous shoplifter will turn their head at everyone that passes by. Often times they will look them up and down evaluating whether or not they seem like an undercover. When this happens it is a good indicator that I should set up on this person and wait for them to “go”.

5)You are bringing non-clothing items into the fitting room: Some people actually think that if they conceal merchandise in the fitting room that they can not be arrested by Loss Prevention Agents. This is because it eliminates the possibility of the LP Agent’s step # 3. This might work on some LP Agents, but certainly not the one’s that are good at what they do. If I see someone bringing something into the fitting room that is not supposed to be tried on such as DVDs, Jewelry, makeup, etc., they have my full attention until I see them exit the fitting room carrying that merchandise. Believe me, bringing stuff into the fitting room is a false sense of security and it will get you caught.

4)You are leaving an evidence trail: You select the item you want to steal. You are not sure if the item will make the door beep or not so you decide to remove the item from the package. Or maybe you want to pretend the item was already your’s so you rip the tags off. Now you can conceal the item. However, you also need to rid yourself of the package. So you discard it on the shelf, or you hide it behind something. You just made the LP Agents job 95% easier. Maybe they did not see you conceal the item, but they did see you toss something down or hide something. They find the package. Now LP knows what the item is, they know you removed it from the package (this is vandalism and is illegal), and they know you are up to no good. When you walk out of the store, all the LP Agent needs to do is approach you with the empty package and demand that you return the item. They will likely tell you that you are on video opening it (you may or may not be). They will tell you that if you do not return the item you will be charged with vandalism (this trick is likely against their LP policy but it is completely legal). Once you produce the item you are under arrest for theft. It is a lose-lose situation that you created by leaving a trail of packages and tags.

3)You have “shifty” eyes: Everyone knows that you are not supposed to blatantly look for cameras or look around for people when you are going to steal. However, it seems that the majority overcompensates. When you look up to the ceiling and then side to side without moving your head, you have “shifty eyes”. Shifty eyes get shoplifters caught every day. In fact, if I am about to give up on a perspective shoplifter and they shift their eyes, I will watch them until they leave the store, no exceptions.

2)You use two hands: As an LP Agent, nothing catches my eye more than somebody with both hands on the sales shelf. When an honest shopper looks at a product of interest on the sales shelf, they typically take the item in one hand and remove it from the shelf to look at it in the open. When a shoplifter puts both hands on a product and does not remove the object from the shelf it is a DEAD GIVE AWAY that they are opening something. I have caught shoplifters that I otherwise would not have even noticed simply because they used two hands!

1)You just plain look like a shoplifter: You know who you are! This is by far the most common reason people get caught. If you fit the stereotypical profile of someone who would likely shoplift you are likely being watched as an “easy stat”. So if you have 10 facial piercings, and a bright green mohawk, or if you’re just a shady looking character, don’t do it.

REBLOG AND HELP A FRIEND

[hazelroot-blog]

confession: sometimes, I go into a store and do ALL these things but don’t actually steal anything. I’m lowkey hoping to trap lp into a bad stop so i can complain. highkey testing to see what they do when they suspect a lifter.

[helloforeverxo]

Ok that would be amazing hazelroot lmaoooo

The thing I do the most is being TOO nice and talkative. But I often feel like the conversations are genuine and I try to get out of them anyway but the person just keeps going 😂 this happens whether I’m lifting or not so … 🤷🏼‍♀️

🌺🌺STAY SAFE AT U/TÁ BEAUTY 🌺🌺

okay so i’ve been so a few U/tás recently and i’ve gathered some information. take all of this with a grain of salt, but i figured i’d share what i know.

🌻 while at my 3rd U/ta, i noticed after picking something up off the shelf that a faint peeping sound was coming from under the display. it got progressively louder (if i recall correctly) as i held onto the product. i pretended to look ‘for a different shade’ as an excuse to scope out what the beeping was. THERE ARE NOW SENSORS UNDER THE SHELVES. maybe they are motion sensors that can detect whether or not you’ve put the item back? i’m not sure. all i know is that they are black boxes and on the beeping black box, there was a printed label with the brand name on it. I looked at other shelves and they also had these sensors. I’ve only ever seen these at one location, but please check for them. you wouldn’t want to get caught because of them. 🌸my advice? maybe carry something over from the drug store section and replace it there with the item you’re lifting? any other ideas?🌸

🌻 a few days ago, i went to my closest U/tá that i NEVER lift at because they’re so tight in security there. like i’m never left alone and this one employee for some reason ALWAYS follows me or makes sure that someone follows me/ gives me a basket. there’s my preface to this story. SO, i go inside simply just to look around with a friend about half an hour after the store opened and there are 5 EMPLOYEES standing on either side of the door. 3 were in uniform, but the other 2 were plain clothes. i knew they were workers because they were chatting up the employees and laughing and didn’t move the whole time we were there. i thought to myself that might be LP, but is usually LP tends to be older or male… these two people looked like college females and BOTH HAD A BLACK SELMA AROUND THERE ARMS. BOTH. that’s when it hit me: these are probably bait employees who rat out suspicious customers to the SA and LP. I could totally be wrong, but i’m pretty positive they weren’t LP. i left after 5 minutes of being in there because they made me SOO uncomfortable, and i wasn’t even lifting! it was just so weird to have 5 people staring at you and not even greet you or say goodbye that work somewhere.

🌸my advice? don’t use the selma. don’t use a black purse at all in fact. it’ll put a huge red flag on you. also, if you see a “customer” with one, PLEASE STAY AWAY. they could just be a customer, but they also could be an undercover employee. it’s better safe than sorry. 🌸

🌻 I can confirm that U/TÁ TESTER STICKERS ARE RFID. I have seen it at every location i go to. pay very close attention to these stickers the next time you’re in.

🌸my advice? peel them off (of course) or just don’t get the tester. i don’t really like the testers because they’re used and usually pretty dirty haha! 🌸

🌻NOT ONLY PALETTES ARE TAGGED. omg guys PLEASE check for stickers. i have seen soo many products with RFID stickers that weren’t expensive palettes. I will say, all of these items i have found were tagged on the outside very obviously, but please check the inside as well. you can never be too safe. i personally have found the following products to be tagged before:

🌹UD Concealer 🌹BECCA highlighter 🌹Stila small eyeshadow palettes 🌹Two Faced highlighters 🌹Hoola Bronzer 🌹Stila liquid lipstick 🌹Anastasia liquid lipstick 🌹Two faced Honey and Peanut Butter palette 🌹Two faced PB&J 🌹tarte shapetape concealer

i have also found the following big palettes either RFID tagged, tagged with the White Box of Death, or put up by the register to prevent theft:

🌹ABH Modern Renaissance (up by register) 🌹Two Faced Naturally Pretty (White Box of Death) 🌹UD Naked Palette (ALL OF THE ABOVE) 🌹UD Naked Basics (RFID and White Box) 🌹Two Faced Sweet Peach (ALL OF THE ABOVE) 🌹Tarte Proglow (RFID) 🌹 ANY Two Faced Chocolate Bar (RFID and White Box) 🌹 Anastasia Cream Contour (RFID)

now these are the products i have personally seen MYSELF to be tagged or whatnot. my point being, ALWAYS CHECK FOR TAGS.

🌸my advice? ALWAYS CHECK PLEASE GOODNESS. NEVER ASSUME THEY ARENT TAGGED. check the inside and outside for RFID stickers and peel them off!! 🌸

🌸White Box of Death: AVOID. GOODNESS. they have cameras and alarms and they will not come off. i’ve seen some people say that this is the only way it’s acceptable to debox and leave the box on the display, but i’d just avoid it all together. products with these vary by location and i’m sure you can find a Naked Palette somewhere without this box. it’s safer. remember, packaging left being is evidence. don’t lead them to believe anything.

🌸Register: any tips? idk any good ones🌸

🌻 U/TÀ KNOWS ABOUT THE COTTON BALL TRICK. before i joined the community, i read a post about how some employees were taught about the cotton ball trick at an official LP meeting.

🌸my advice? find another large, low priced item that is about the same size as the cotton balls. i say cheap because well first, it looks a lot more sus carrying around 2 large curling irons in your bag and then not purchasing them makes t worse. second, if you get into a pickle, you can hop in line to purchase this and not blow the bank because you picked up something expensive. also, employees WILL NOTICE AND PAY ATTENTION TO YOU if you have something expensive and large in your bag. it’s a red flag. 🌸

🌻 ALL PERFUMES ARE RFID. MOST ARE ALSO ON THE INSIDE. i’ve heard on multiple accounts that the perfume and cologne are usually double tagged, yes that’s right. THEY ARE ON THE INSIDE OF THE PLASTIC.

🌸my advice? avoid all together. it’s too sus to open the plastic AND the packaging 🌸

this is a lot of random info that i’ve personally gathered from U/tá first hand. i hope you guys can find something here to take with you so you can stay safe. please feel free to add on or ask questions!! My U/tá total is around $750, so i know generally what i’m doing. id love to help! i love you guys!!

Don’t worry about the white boxes having cameras on them! That’s illegal. The thing that looks like a camera is a light sensor. If it’s placed into a dark purse/bag from a lit room, it’ll scream. The same if it’s dropped into a purse, it’ll scream. Just don’t worry about it being a camera!
