Umm, than what is it?
So, I had to get something else to use my q and dh picked up $14 ear buds. Somehow I think it was all a big conspiracy!! LOL
I'm pretty sure that sometimes when those Revlon Color Cosmetic coupons come out, they actually have a picture of nail polish on them. NOT that I'm saying a coupon is only good for what's pictured, BUT if it's pictured, then obviously Revlon DOES consider nail polish to be a cosmetic. Does anyone else remember any of the past ones??

My Revlon Q's do not have pictures of nail polish on them this time but did in the past. As for the wording, mine say 'cosmetics' not make-up. I can actually see how make-up would refer to facial products but cosmetics doesn't. Anyone agree with me?

My cashier said the Q's were for 'facial' cosmetics. I told him that they did not say that. Then he said I had to use for 'color' products when I tried to buy clear nail polish. Finally, after two attempts to make them not work he finally said, "the register is saying that the coupon doesn't match anything I've rung up." Soooo, I didn't get to use them for the polish. Sometimes I HATE CVS!!!

I do remember the last ones had polish on them. I didn't push the manager but I wanted to ask her what her def. of color cosmetics were since the nail polish is in with all of the cosmetics. If it's so different, shouldn't it be seperate from all of the other cosmetics? It wasn't like I was trying to buy shampoo with a body wash q. I sometimes wish there were no pics at all on q's.

I pm'd you about the condo.

Yep, I was pretty sure that they sometimes come out with the same wording and a nail polish picture! If I end up not using any of today's, I plan to keep one just to show any future cashiers that question whether nail polish is a "cosmetic."
