Would only purchase if I need something
I find things on Mecca are so over priced. They should have discounts like Sephora. They hardly answer the phone in store. However, they do have beautiful products. They really need to allow Australians to have a discount because I’ve purchased a lot of items through other stores like adore beauty and catch of the day for half the price. Will only shop here if I need an item.

Rude customer service attendant
I made an online order, StarTrack has delivered to the wrong address. I've liased with StarTrack for a few weeks, they also sent me a photo of proof of delivery and I was able to see that my order was delivered to the wrong address. When I called Mecca customer service, the lady was so rude, she told me off for talking to StarTrack before Mecca. Isn't it natural for a customer to contact StarTrack if they've been the one who's been emailing you the tracking number of your order? She told me they'll investigate and get back to me. Which never ha...Read more
ppend. I had to contact customer service multiple times. My order was delivered to the wrong address, waited weeks and now finally they gave me credit for the amount I ordered previously only to find the product I ordered in the first place has sold out. What a ridiculous customer service! I would never order from Mecca online again. It's given me so much stress, and lack of trust with postal services too.Similar opinion?

Appalling service
Woeful customer service and lack of communication. Happy to take your money but don't follow through. Thought the beauty loop system would be worth a try but far better value for money out there with other companies or buying products direct. Beauty Loop system is a hoax.

Perfect
Mecca maxima offers free express shipping for items over a certain price. The items come within a week neatly and beautifully packaged and in perfect condition. The company is australian which i love too. They have also widened their range of cosmetics. Only complaint is they never offer sales.

Horrible paid over $700 for express and didnt recieve any update over a week now...
Ive placed online order over $700 for express delivery on last Monday. its been over a week and the tracking number they provided does not exist/not in the system at all up untill now. Ive asked Mecca a few times to help me track the items are but all they say is “the order is being process” and does not take any responsibility at all (seems like they don’t know what they are doing). Since i can not receive my order (don’t even know they actually send it or not becoz the tracking does not exist), i ask if i can get a refund because as this order is over $700 its a lot of money. But they refused and said “the order in process”.... till now i don’t receive anything or any refund.
what can i do ?

Don’t buy! Terrible customer service!
Ordered mascara etc but I never received it. They refused to offer any apology, replacement or refund. Totally sucks. Wasted almost $100! I asked a couple of time but they are jerks.

Disgusting customer service & useless loyalty program!
Don't even bother with the Mecca loyalty program. It took me ages to reach level 1 where you are given free gift boxes etc only to find out in February 2020 that I had reached level 1 in August 2022, but they unsubscribed me so I never received any notifications of the free gifts I was eligible for. I called the Customer Service Centre and asked them to extend my level 1 status for 6 months to make up for it and they refused! Then asked to speak to a manager and was told there was none! Clearly a representative on a power trip who doesn't know how to do her job!!!! Mecca has lost me as a customer for good. Very easy to get the products I need through other companies online and probably cheaper too.

Love!
Took advantage of Boxing Day sale and a online Xmas e-gift card. Quick delivery. They threw in a free sample which was actually quite decent it was a Mercier loose powder. Love it! Quality products and all my favourite brands. I’ll keep my eye out for their next sale! I prefer online shop but I’ve been instore and they are super helpful when I go in. I even had the most amazing makeup artist come out do my hair and makeup for a function and found out she also works for Mecca.

Good and bad--but don't count on getting your Beauty Loop Rewards, even if you spend the money...
I've been mostly please with Mecca up until now: the staff are always helpful in store--love that. I'm part of the Beauty Loop program that promises rewards for shopping exclusively with Mecca. For the lower level boxes, I was given one or two successfully--until I got to level three.
Got the email to say the boxes were ready, but was sick and couldn't get into town for a week after that. I would have shopped online, but the colour of lipstick I wanted isn't available online, and the last package was late by at least two days, so I thought it ...Read more
was worth waiting until I could get in. Which is fine--until you get into store and they don't have any of the boxes left (how can you "sell out" of a bonus you promised to people for loyalty-shopping with you?) The counter girl told me "oh, you can get it online" but when I tried, there was no option for that. Called them, and they told me "we've sold out online"--which again--? how do you sell out of rewards for the people who are spending the most money in your store? I'm really disappointed. I don't love spending heaps of money on cosmetics, but I have rosacea skin and this was the only way to take care of it; by spending a lot on one particular face cream. I figured I might as well get the rest of my cosmetics there since there was a rewards program. Thankfully, I can source the *one* cream I'm not allergic to from elsewhere, and I will happily give my money to people who, even if they don't promise rewards for loyalty, at least won't be lying about it. To recap: Mecca instore staff is great, but I'm not very pleased with the online "service" or the fulfilling of their "rewards" system, which is apparently not catering for all their loyal customers. I recommend going in store for help and samples until you find what you want, but wouldn't recommend them for the long haul once you know what you want. Spend your money elsewhere. (I know some people will read and think "entitled much?" but to get to level 3, you're spending AT LEAST $1200 at Mecca for every counted period (thanks, rosacea!). I think that giving out the rewards they promise is the least they can do)Similar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!

Such a variety of product and great loyalty scheme!
The Mecca website is easy to navigate, either by brand of product type (foundation etc). The pricing seems to be inline with what you can buy some of these products for elsewhere, additionally they have a lot of products that you can only get from Mecca in Australia.
I bought a Morphe Palette and Morphe eye brush and am extremely happy with the products and value for money.
Additionally I received a beauty loop box (loyalty club) and a free sample.
Couldn't be happier with the website, product and delivery!

Always Helpful
The assistants in store are always so helpful and willing to assist. Samples are something they do not shy away from and should there be any problems with the product, they are always willing to replace or exchange.

I was in the store today - they didn’t have any in stock so I ordered a palette online then Mecca provided me a refund instantly without explanation. What terrible service!

Way too expensive and greedy
Have you noticed how often Mecca have sales? Once-twice a year? And what items do they exactly put on their sales? Usually it is up to 2 pages of products, where 60% of them are sold out in a first hour! Can't you put/stock more items or what?! Is it that hard?!
Ok, now to the expensive part for regular priced items, have you ever tried to compare mecca's prices with prices on american stores? Ie, Beauty Bay have stilla pallets exactly the same ones that mecca here does, and you know what? They are $15-20 dollars cheaper, without any discount...Read more
!!!! And furthermore, Beauty Bay actually does put their makeup on sale pretty often! You can also go and compare Mecca prices with other online retailers (those ones that they did not yet forbid!! to deliver to AUS). This is ridiculous, I have stopped shopping @Mecca long time ago (Sephora AUS as well). Not worth it at all and the fact that they are not doing and not planning to do anything about that is absolutely absurd. How can they ever compete with the other online retailers?! Oh yeah, they simply forbid them to ship to AUS, that's right! How people are still buying their beauty products there and giving them 5 stars? I just don't understand... If you are happy with the way they are treating aussie customers, then go ahead. I am done with it.Similar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!
Lost me as a customer on beauty loop level3
Used to love Mecca and buy only from them all the time for years. But lately noticed that every time I go in to purchase a staple that I always use, the price on it rises more and more. I used to be a beauty loop level 3 but now I shop at Sephora or else where. If you guys think that by rising a price on something by $3 every month will be left unnoticed by your customers and at the same time not accepting afterpay because your too cool for it is just wrong. I won't be surprised if your business will go down hill in no time with this attitude.

Lovely products delivered quickly
I bought the Mecca Max Desert Queen Eye & Face Palette ($38) when it first came out, along with a Mecca Max Gloss Boss lip gloss ($18). The palette is even more beautiful in person. The lip gloss is sticky but has good staying power. They were shipped quickly after I purchased. No issues here, would definitely purchase again.

Customer Service... do they care?
I LOVE everything about this business - their physical and online stores. But I find their Customer Service/online contact system lacking. I spent enough $$'s online to qualify for the 1-2 day express shipping, but in the end the courier company let us all down. But the thing is, I sent an online enquiry (12/05/19) to MECCA about this - and to date (it's now 21/05/19), I still haven't received a word back from them. My delivery, of course arrived the following Monday (even though I received notification from them that I'd get it close of busine...Read more
ss Thursday the previous week), but the fact that I received no response or follow up from them is disappointing. I spend hundreds of dollars with MECCA every year because I really do like them; the fact that I keep spending money with them is proof of that - but when they don't deliver (albeit via their contracting courier), and then don't respond to your enquiry, it makes you wonder whether they even care about keeping your business at the end of the day? Not only that, if their chosen courier service is being paid for express service but aren't providing that - isn't that something they would want to take up them for not keeping up their end of the deal?Similar opinion?

Their online store is great
I don't go to their physical shop much, but ordering online is always a pleasure - I always choose StarTrack shipping and they always ship my order out within a day or so and it arrives quickly with no hassle! Their physical shops are also good - the few time I've been their staff have been helpful with foundation samples even though I didn't buy anything. The only complaint I have is that Mecca doesn't sell Beauty Blenders! I can't fathom why that is, but they need to get on that!

Extremely disappointed with Customer Service
I finally had spent enough dollars to qualify for a Beauty Loop box and was so looking forward to placing my order in the specified time frame so I could qualify. Unfortunately the same window of time held the Townsville floods. My suburb was wiped out. I emailed customer service and explained and asked if there may be any consideration or grace extended because of this disaster. There was no grace given whatsoever and I was just told ‘keep an eye out for the next one and get in quick’ Really disappointed in the uncaring way it was just sent back in a generic uncaring email. Even if Mecca still refuses to show any grace in this matter, they could have still displayed a small amount of compassion. It doesn’t cost any more.
