Glambot.com Review

   I first heard of the Glambot site from an offhand comment in a YouTube tutorial. I would give a link to the video, but it's not really worth the mention. I was actually watching in horror as the YouTuber was applying a crazy amount of makeup layers, starting with a foundation that was completely wrong for her skin tone, but I digress.
 I searched for Glambot & found it here https://www.glambot.com/  Glambot.com is a consignment sight for used makeup. I browsed through the site, window shopping, but I really became intrigued with the concept of selling off some of my collection to get some room in my makeup stash.
 The process was fairly painless & saved me the hassle of having to sanitize the makeup, selling it off piece by piece via swapidu or some other site. The downside is that convenience costs, & I ended up receiving a fraction of what the 20 items plus deluxe samples were worth. I was offered $83 cash or $108 Glam bucks for my stash that contained a lot of deluxe full sized items, including a 4 oz bottle of Josie Maran SPF 47 moisturizer that had barely been used.  Glambot does offer a prepaid shipping label, but if you don't accept the quote of either cash via Paypal or a higher amount usable only at their site, then you will be responsible for paying the shipping to return your items to you. I took the cash. The process was fairly painless & took under 3 weeks. Considering that these items would've gone bad since I wasn't using them anyway, & I definitely wouldn't have wanted to hassle with selling them individually, I can't complain about getting some cash for them. There are a few items that I want from their site, but the point of me thinning out my stash was to get some room & narrow my collection down to items that I use regularly. I will probably be looking to buy, maybe sometime next year. I defintely recommend at least checking Glambot.com out for yourselves.
