And I'm sure L'oreal wouldn't give a rat's rump if their lipstick did anything for me, or if I threw it in the trash the minute I walked out of the store, as long as I bought it.
And I wouldn't want to "sell" anything to a rushee who wouldn't fit in with my sorority, which I haven't seen you touch on at all. That would make both sides very unhappy. Again, I don't think L'oreal would care about that.

And you are completely missing the point about marketing. Every group markets to a target audience - which each individual group determines their individual target audience (and you can't tell me that each sorority does not have their own way of determining a level of 'acceptabilit' prior to recruitment!). How that marketing is accomplished is up to the individual group and their unique target audience.
You're also misunderstanding the idea of selling that I am referring to - and YES, you are trying to sell something to prospective members (and no, you can't compare prospective members to a cosmetic company!).
These are BASIC marketing principles!
