Manuela??

Ok, I never thought I would say this, but I do not recognize her. I saw the pic on the other website and thought,"that is someone else."

I rarely post, but I wanted to see what was going on for Isomers. I saw Manuela's pic and was kinda floored.

Anyone else? And I really do not want to stir stuff up, but I was caught quite off guard.

the addy on the Isomers page first, i thought it looked like Manuela, but not totally. I cannot really put my finger on it. maybe the products have really made a change since I have last seen her. i will have to watch a show and see her in "real" and see if I still wonder.

I am not sure what you mean?.Been watching her for 7 or 8 yrs and i dont see a huge difference.She looks great as always to me however think she looks better with makeup than without as most of us do when older and i do like her with the shorter hair styled the way it is on shophq pic also.

Maybe it is just that I have not watched for a while.

her hair looks different, I like it actually, and she is clearly ageing. Aging well but she aging none the less. She is in fact 51! it is to be expected. what is making me a little crazy right now is that they are blatantly lying about sodium hyaluronate! it may be found in but is not the same thing as hyaluronic acid and certainly not the same price! they are selling 16 ounces for $139 but have no trouble implying that it's worth a thousand an ounce?!

I think she looks amazing and it's so nice to see someone NOT slathered in so much makeup. I think her face is a testimonial to her products.

I hadn't seen her in quite a while but thought she looks different too. I do think it might be the hair. She's a pretty lady no matter what it is, she just doesn't look the same as she used to.

I did have to turn it off cuz I couldn't stand the hosts voice and fast talking or Manuela's shouting. She just keeps getting louder and louder and louder......... Reminds me of Adrianne, lol!

She said she has grown out her bangs. So she is not hiding behind hair in her face. She is wearing more make up....everyone looks better with a little makeup.

In some of those photos when she was younger, she has a similar look to Catherine Zeta-Jones.

I only caught a few minutes yesterday...I love her hair that way; always hated her other cut.

But...I have no idea how old she is, her facial skin did not look lifted & youthful, other than her no-makup look. I did like that. I was really surprised! I'm not an Isomers user, but seeing those few minutes yesterday did not inspire me still to try any of her things.

I think she looks amazing. My neck hasn't looked that good since I was 22. Had my first baby at 22 and got my first tree ring on my neck as a present. Nice to see her with makeup and new haircut.

Her skin looks wonderful. After a certain age, it's tough to look as good as she does and still be as thin as she is. I think her products are amazing and her skin shows it.

Sodium hyaluronate is the salt of hyaluronic acid. It has a smaller molecular size so it penetrates the skin. Hyaluronic acid has a larger molecular size, so it does not penetrate the skin. That's why it is used in injectables like Restalyne. In skin care I actually prefer sodium hyaluronate as it won't just sit on the skin like hyaluronic acid.

I didn't watch the shows, but saw a picture and noticed that her hair was different and that she was wearing makeup. I think she does the presentations without makeup… or with minimal makeup. The photo with makeup is lovely!

Re: Manuela??

CANDLEQUEEN — Sun, 10 Aug 2014 14:55:22 GMT

I think she looks great too. I love seeing how minimal makeup she wears and still looks great. Her hair is longer too which I like, and like another poster said its nice to see someone who is not slathered in makeup presenting their skincare.......I love a lot of Isomers products and use them in conjunction with my other skincare.....

Her skin is amazing, and her arms at 51...holy smokes! Perfect tone. It's inspiring.

I didn't think she looked too good. I can see marionette lines & upper lip lines on her. She's ageing like the rest of us.

I know what it is. It is not the same thing it's actually a component of hyaluronic acid, that your body produces naturally, and it certainly does not cost a thousand dollars an ounce. I resent that they would allow a consumer to believe that. It's disingenuous. whether or not it is effective as skin care really wasn't my point

I would just love to hang out with her someday. She is such a brilliant scientist. Having worked with many when I was younger, they don't all have a personality. At least not a personality that the average person can relate to. She is a sweetie.
