This sounds like the script for some corny, chick flick, heist movie, but it’s actually real life.
When it comes to cosmetics, Anastasia Beverly Hills is one of the most coveted brands these days, and clearly, some creative thieves were ready to capitalize on that.
According to The LA Times, suspects sawed through the roof of a warehouse in the San Fernando Valley, and racked up on a ton ofĀ Anastasia Beverly HillsĀ Modern Renaissance eyeshadow palettes. The thieves took about $4.5 million dollars worth ofĀ palettes, which retail forĀ $42.00.
LAPD said the burglars got away with about 100,000 packages of eye shadow, and there’s no surveillance footage of the heist.
So ladies, if you come across an Anastasia palette for the low in the next few weeks, chances are that it’s authentic. Stolen, but authentic none the less.
