One of the first posts EVER on Beaut.ie, almost a year ago, in September 2006. This post was brought about by a hilarious encounter I had at the Clinique counter a few days beforehand.
*****************
I only have one thing to say here.
Tee hee
How on earth can the Clinique consultants bring out the "computer" with a straight face.
Consultant: Let's just check what skincare products are best for your skin type.

Me: (fighting back the uncontrollable urge to laugh)
OK.
Consultant consults the, emmm, computer, slides some knobs up and down, recommends a variation on the three step program and somewhat shamefacedly tidies the computer away.
What happens if the computer crashes? This could be a serious problem. People could get the wrong moisturiser. The Y2K upgrades must have caused a major headache for the IT department.
Mon dieu!
Clinique: we can't take this seriously anymore, if we ever did. Please upgrade your "System". It has all the diagnostic sophistication of an abacus.
