Harmon Face Values

Horrible manager, said that he couldn’t see my signature on my credit card. Then asked for my ID. Then made me resign my receipt to look exactly like my signature on my ID. Unnecessary behavior

Omg… sigh…
I CAN’T even begin to tell you how many times I have visited this store and spent my rent money on… cosmetics, hair products, the list goes on! This is one of my favorite stores in the city. This store is CLEAN and ORGANIZED… AND the staff is always helpful. I went in recently looking for a facial product they didn’t seem to carry anymore. I asked one of the staff members about it, and she was more than helpful. She asked her manager to confirm whether or not they were going to continue carrying it, and ultimately I was able to get a solid answer about the item. I just love when customer service is this thorough!!! Its exactly WHY I keep coming back… that and all that Harmon has to offer at discounted prices. HARMON… YASSSSS!!! :)

Michael W. is excellent. He couldn’t have been more helpful, knowledgable and friendly. He knows what colors work best for each skin tone. Highly recommend getting his makeup advice.

Michael W. in the make up department is kind and courteous, professional and ultra talented! My friends and I were browsing in the make up department and he offered his assistance if we needed it. Usually I avoid these types of approaches because I feel the makeup artists may only be trying to up-​sell but it was apparent that Michael genuinely likes his job and truly likes to help people. He did our make up, showed us what he used, didn’t pressure us and we all bought something! He stayed past the end of his shift to take care of us and made the three of us feel and look beautiful. Michael, you made our night unforgettable!

Best store ever! Love Michael who works with the make up (cosmetics). He will allways help you. We Love you! If you want to buy make up (Mabelline, neutrogena, elf, essie, covergirl, L’Oreal, Milani Cosmetics, Rimmel, eos, Burts bees, Revlon…), shampoo, face products, candy etc go here.

Love this store!!! Items are cheaper than any drugstore, but the store itself doesn’t look «cheap». My absolutely favorite place to browse and shop for anything from bubble bath soap, to expensive hair conditioners and straightening irons to wayyyy cheaper Maybelline make-​up and make-​up brushes. I make a point of stopping by whenever I go over to Trader Joe’s next door. An absolutely do-​not-​miss place, better than any Duane Reade or CVS, and a lot cheaper, if you can believe that.

Whenever I meet friends in Manhattan, I always drag them to Chelsea.
Chelsea Market? No.
Limelight? No.
HARMON FACE VALUES FIELD TRIP!
This store is the drug store from heaven. Lotions, soaps, makeup, and accessories for significantly cheaper than CVS or Rite Aid. I’m addicted to John Frieda’s Frizz Ease and the serums, which are typically $ 10-​$ 11 in the big drugstores are only $ 7 or $ 8 here. They also sell beverages, snacks, and electronic tools. In fact, you’d be pretty hard pressed to NOT find something here at Harmon.
It is definitely worth the trip.

I break hair clips and pretty often. Of course this time around, it breaks right before my workout class nearby and I have to have one. THANK goodness for this place. I ran to three other stores and couldn’t find any that would work (I have really thick hair).
You can use your 20% off BB&B coupons here (too) and the prices are all very reasonable.
My only complaint is that the two clips broke shortly after I bought them and I have no clue what I did with the receipt…

I have been a loyal customer to Harmon Face Values since the day I ran in here on my way to Trader Joe’s. I wasn’t very into makeup when I first started shopping here for my average beauty and hygiene products (face foundation, mascara, toothpaste, shampoo, etc.) which, by the way, are very reasonably priced. Whenever I walk in there is someone around to help me locate a product or even ask for their opinion when selecting between two items. The cashiers are always very friendly as well.
BUT what really urged me to start « Unilocaling» in order to leave this review was Harmon’s beauty section guru Michael. Michael is the newest addition to the team and is the biggest gift that Harmon has given all us girls and guys who need some makeup help. Before, I would walk into the beauty section not quite knowing what I needed or what foundation even matched my face correctly! I make at least one trip every two weeks here and the first time I met Michael I felt relieved because all my questions I would normally dig through youtube makeup videos in order to find answer to were answered by Michael. He’s been in the industry for years and worked at Sephora prior to Harmon. His attention to customer service is out of this world. He works around my budget (I’m a college student, after all) and tells me what works and what doesn’t. He taught me how to contour correctly and how to fill in my eyebrows using affordable products sold in store (which I couldn’t resist buying). After meeting him, my beauty routine has changed for the better and I feel a lot more confident. Its great to have a professional working at a store where the prices are friendly towards your every day working person.

Closes at 10pm on a Saturday? Has everything I need for dollars cheaper?! Takes Bed Bath & Beyond coupons for 20% off??? I am a customer forever.
They have everything. Everything.

Way cheaper than drugstore with a great selection of products!
I’m a makeup artist, so I found pretty good stuff there, such as Real Techniques brushes (that I think is hard to find in Manhattan), small bottles of face moisturizer, makeup removers, Q tips (all of these great to carry on my go to kit).
Loved the hair products too, Shea Moisturizer shampoos and conditioner was $ 4 cheaper than in CVS.
Thought that the staff was a bit rude, sometimes I felt like I was beeing followed, but that’s not so bad considering the prices :)

Stumbled into the store when I meant to go to Michael’s
It was very clean and well organized – the staff was very friendly too
Much cheaper than Duane Reade; $ 8 bb cream here versus $ 12 at Duane Reade
Will definatley return

Harmon is a triple threat in NYC. 1) Low Prices 2) Great Service/​Clean 3) Wide Assortment.
It’s a treat to visit Harmon as it’s a pharmacy/​drug/​beauty oasis in the heart of Chelsea. I have even come to know the Harmon Team including Vanessa Smith who regularly rings up my purchases. She always has a big smile and is always quick to point out the products that she loves and uses. Harmon is more then just great product but also great people.

I would probably come here everyday if it was closer to where I live at. They sell pretty much anything and everything. Their travel toiletries might be the most well stocked I’ve ever seen. Their prices are reasonable. Their clientele is mostly attractive women. Either that or I came in at a really good day. That one thing they DON’T sell which was why I came here in the first place…
FOOT PUMICE.
Back scrubbers… candies…electronics…where are the foot pumices?
Not that I got Flintstone feet but hey to keep our feet looking their best we gotta buff them suckers, am I right?
You betcha.
Still…
FAN.

My normal routine:
8:30 close my store
8:35 enter Harmon for deals
9:30 go to TJs next door…
HARMON is the best place to buy ANYTHING!!! They are affordable. …organized…and have a great variety of products and are rarely out of stock… i grab all of my hair products from here to pretty myself up for the next day at work so i can go back and buy more after work… the staff is super friendly… the security guard ways greets me whether i have headphones on or not which really adds to comforting feel… me and my coworker come here soo often we basically know the layout lol. … the cashiers are really friendly… especially ANDREA… as attractive as she is, her personality matches, being super friendly and sociable and willing to answer any questions one may have… i love Harmon and will totally shop here nonstop!!!

I absolutely LOVE this place. This store features a wide array of products for everyone. The atmosphere feels welcoming and warm.
The aisles are brightly lit so you can see easily. Nearly organized and arranged, I find products with ease.
Located in the heart of Chelsea, this store attracts a multitude of people. Location makes it easier to shop since people can walk over to Trader Joe’s. The craft store Michaels is located right next to Harmons.
I see some people walking in with their dogs. Which is an added bonus!

Thought I was walking into Michaels, but found this place instead. I was amazed at the selection and the prices. They sell ELF makeup, which I previously could only get at Target when I went upstate, or placed an online order. I also got a shower-​cap for $ 4 and it was awesome. On top of beauty products, hairdryers, etc. They also have a small candy aisle and a section for paper products. Prices are AMAZING. Just read other reviews about 20% off coupon, so I will find one next time!
And it’s right next to Trader Joes… whats not to love!

I walked into Harmon thinking it was Michaels, which is actually in the basement. But I’m SO glad I found Harmon. It has the cheapest prices on beauty items I’ve seen in Manhattan. They’re downright reasonable, and they also have 20% off coupons and accept Bed Bath and Beyond coupons. I’m never again going to a drugstore or bodega for last-​minute beauty needs to pay twice as much. They have the basic, every-​day stuff (including super-​cheap e.l.f. makeup) but also fun costume-​y items like crazy eyelashes, rhinestones, and stick-​on tattoos.
But even better than the cheap prices and HUGE selection is the ability to test everything out with the makeup artist on staff. When I was there, a really lovely gentleman helped my friend and I out. (I think his name was Nick.) We were looking for makeup for a specific costume look, and he was able to pull testers of all the items we were considering to show us the colors on our skin. He was incredibly knowledgeable about all the products and was able to make fantastic recommendations. He offered makeovers, but we weren’t in the market for regular makeup. But when I’m ready to shake up my daily routine, I’ll be back. We left with everything we needed to create our party looks.
So it’s basically drugstore makeup at Walmart prices and with Sephora service.

I’ve always loved Harmons– I used to go all the time when i lived in NJ, and even now its no different.
First off, MAKE SURE YOU’VE GOT SOME 20% COUPONS WITH YOU! It makes everything soooo much cheaper, I always feel like a champ coming out of this place with my receipt telling me how much I’ve saved (the little things, you know?)
Great selection, and its super organized so it is really easy to navigate within the store. This is where I do most of my shopping for household stuff. Please open more locations!

An update: Why anyone shops anywhere else I will never understand. DUANE Reade is 50% more, and in some cases, 100% more. WHY people???
Go to Harmon, save TONS. Their prices are super low even for people used to suburban prices.
A no-​brainer.
