Elemis Christmas TSV 13/11/22

[llloyd]

I succumbed, there’s 10% on this item at Top Cash Back (although it takes an age to pay out), my son gets 10% on his card so he paid for it & my Hubby is buying it for me for Christmas. Saves him having to think about what to get me.

Arrived today, chuffed, until I look at my stash that is.

 

[SisterBliss]

Probably high on Elemis fumes.

Is that what they're calling (that brand's) commission now?

Overnight Matrix at QVC

I supposed Q's USP is that they price them like that so they can then flog a kit full of body products as filler and tell the gullible they're getting it all for just seven pence more.

It's my all time favourite product but who in their right mind would pay £102 for a face cream???? There must be something out there that does a similar job with similar results.

I ask the same question when Perricone is on - show me the person who spends £300 on a face cream that smells like "cake batter"

I think people bulk buy the likes of Elemis TSVs and then make a profit selling the items individually on Ebay

I did that once with a Leighton Denny set of 4 polishes. I don’t like one colour, put it on EBay and it sold for half the cost of the 4 bottle set.

 

[ERICS MUM]

Blimey!
Thats big money…

Yes but it includes p&p

i acutally know people who do buy it cause they showed me a receipt from their latest trip to harrods ect to get some & i said to them a similar set to what you just bought is .... on QVC

Many years ago, before I retired from hairdressing, we had a very posh client, more money than sense. She would only use Philip Kingsley products, and as she was a friend of the salon owner, was allowed to bring her own products for us to use on her hair. She constantly boasted that she went to his clinic in London, ( a 400 or so miles round journey!) and would regularly buy his products directly from there, at a ridiculously high price. Imagine her shock horror when M&S started to sell it, and the look on her face when I pointed it out to her was priceless!

Clothescloth, poor woman if she knew it is in TKMaxx regularly. With litre sizes under £40!

Some of the Japanese brand moisturizers can be £500 and yes they do sell. I remember in Debenhams I was friendly with the Givenchy SA, I did buy makeup from her now and then. She gave me a sample of their £299+ moisturizer, it was black, and she could not keep it in stock. I didn't fancy it and gave the sample away.

My friend has fallen for that one multiple times.

Perricone is good if you want a good range with no essential oils. Essential oils are not for everyone.

 

[donna255]

Boffy, I see it regularly in TKMaxx, loads of the CBD essence at the moment and even down to red label. I bought an eye serum which is actually an eye cream too thick to be a serum for £19.99 and using it at the moment.

There are still two options in stock and judging from the reviews stating that they are returning the TSV because it smells awful anyone who orders this collection in the future has a good chance of receiving a tried/used item.

 

[ohnonotshoppingagain]

I think those of us long standing customers/former customers of QVC are very bored with it all now, I certainly am, and I think people who are new customers fall for all the hype these days, indeed, QVC I believe rely on the new audienc to stay afloat here in the UK

I remember back in the day when brands like Elemis and Liz Earle first launched mainly on QVC by those small companies privately owned, this is no longer the case, money and not our skin is their God,, they have sold their companies on to big names, hence I reguse now to buy. L’Occitane Group now own Elemis and others, Estee Lauder owned Liz Earle, then Avon, and now Walgreens Boots. etc I could go on and on. Even Molton Brown is owned by the KAO organisation. Whose next I wonder!

The biggest money spinner in the world is the beauty industry!
