Alert

BBB became aware of Makeupconnection.com in 2005. A newly registered complaint in 2025 led to an investigation into the business’s operations. Our findings revealed that Makeupconnection.com is a trademark of Mustang Marketing LLC, registered in 2005 and canceled in 2011. Paul Monea is listed as the President of Mustang Marketing LLC, which is involved in various businesses in Ohio, specializing in infomercial and short-form production, video production, marketing, and e-commerce.

BBB’s investigation found that Makeupconnection.com operates as an online retailer offering a variety of cosmetics and skincare products. It appears that Paul Monea, who is connected to Makeupconnection.com, was a producer of infomercials for the Alexis Vogel brand, and Makeupconnection.com may be selling similar or identical products under a new name.

Multiple attempts to reach the business for updated information have been unsuccessful. BBB uncovered several consumer reports suggesting significant issues, including delayed orders, unfulfilled product shipments, and poor customer service. Reviews and complaints also raised concerns about product quality and discrepancies between the advertised and received cosmetics, as well as unprocessed refunds. The business’s social media activity ceased in 2022, and while the website remains active and is accepting orders, there has been little communication regarding customer concerns.
Furthermore, BBB has been unable to confirm the current operations or financial standing of the business. As of the most recent investigation, BBB has not received updated or sufficient information from the business. If you're considering purchasing from Makeup Connection, it may be beneficial to review customer feedback and possibly contact the company directly to address any concerns before placing an order.”
On March 27, 2025, BBB sent correspondence to Makeupconnection.com, requesting the following information:

1.Updated contact information
2.Locations and preferred methods of contact (mail, fax, or email)
3.Confirmation on whether the business is still operational
4.Information regarding delivery, return and refund policies
5.Response to the (1) unanswered complaint

BBB has also requested any other relevant information that would help clarify the business operations.

As of March 27, 2025, BBB has not received a response.

However, BBB does not verify the accuracy of information provided by third parties, and does not guarantee the accuracy of any information in Business Profiles.

When considering complaint information, please take into account the company's size and volume of transactions, and understand that the nature of complaints and a firm's responses to them are often more important than the number of complaints.

BBB Business Profiles generally cover a three-year reporting period, except for customer reviews. Customer reviews posted prior to July 5, 2024, will no longer be published when they reach three years from their submission date. Customer reviews posted on/after July 5, 2024, will be published indefinitely unless otherwise voluntarily retracted by the user who submitted the content, or BBB no longer believes the review is authentic.
