@Venezia

If I was talking to her, I'd ask if she actually meant fine lines or wrinkles.

Uh ..... Anyone catch the name of the product she was discussing? lol

I am a long time QVC shopper and know to use healthy skepticism with any advertising. However, I am FINALLY writing about Josie as I honestly can't believe QVC still allows this false and over the top narrative she spews. I get it...they sell a ton so let the lady say whatever, but it is embarrassing, insulting and flagrantly false. This forum board gets more monitoring, attention and cancellation than her airings. She should be reined in on some of this ******. Yes, argan oil is nice and safe and has some benefits but nothing close to her outlandish claims. PS...Josie, the "god-given" comment is just awful.

..........And Courtney Khondabi sells “forget the filler” lip plumper. This is the most flagrant whopper ever lol. She doesn’t claim that her lip size isn’t due to this product, but lip fillers instead. 🤯

What really gets me about Courtney is when she is selling hair care products and touts the benefits of them. How does she know since her hair is faux?

Also, these 'wrinkle be gone' miracle products are temporary but they don't tell you how temporary. Do the results last for 5 minutes, 5 hours, 5 days, 5 years, etc.? How people fall for this nonsense is beyond me. Well, as the saying goes, 'There's a sucker born every minute.'

If Josie is blatantly lying, it's up to the Q to put a stop to it before they get sued. I'm fairly certain their legal department is aware of just how far they can go.

@docsgirl ..............Just because she may wear extentions at times does not mean she does not have real hair to use products on.

There is a lot of stuff about making these claims. As someone else has said I'm sure legal is on it.

I cannot watch or believe anything Josie Maran, cannot take her seriously. She's on QVC on TV and her breasts are always front and center in little dresses. C'MON...am I suppose to take her seriously? So as for wrinkle remover, I will pass.

Why carp on Courtney ? She uses lip products even if she uses fillers which I don’t know if she does or doesn’t, not my business; she always had full lips. Extensions are not a full head of hair & only used in some places on the head if you want length or more body or color. In the north east, many young people use extensions & not unusual.

I don’t know why she generates such nasty comments about her appearance. She is perfectly lovely & seems to be a very nice & happy person. She looks wonderful in everything even some of the really bad products she must present.

I, too heard Josie say that and I thought Wow!!! HSN seems to be much more cautious as to what they will let their vendors say. I have heard them on HSN say plenty of times, legal wouldn't let us say this if it weren't true-they are very strict!!!!

I believe Josie was talking about her night Milk Cream when she made the comment......

Re: Another whopper by Josie M.

depglass — Wed, 12 Jul 2023 14:11:26 GMT

Thank you for bringing up HSN. In the old days they would actually bleep out words or phrases, and explain afterwards that our legal dept. wouldn't let us say that. One company? How about one policy?

The topic here is truth in advertising, not someone’s appearance.

Take your complaints about truth in advertising or lack there of, to the Federal Trade Commission. Exaggerations and outright lies are rampant in the cosmetics industry. Time to rein them in.

@katie1859 I am no prude by any stretch,but the very low cut dresses Josie wears on air are far too revealing. I'm actually embarrassed for her.

I rarely watch her shows because I'm not a fan of Argan oil products but the other day she I caught a glimpse of her presentation and her dress was vey revealing

@Stray Any chance to bash a host is the reason

Josie has been picked on since the first day she appeared on QVC. She is beautiful and pleasant. The perfect reason why she isn't popular with "some" other women. Love her style and perky personality. ♥️💕♥️

Not being picked on. Her claims of results from use of her products are laughable they are so outrageous. The same with other beauty lnes. But that's why the beauty industry is a billion dollar industry. Because women want to believe the myth.

With all the 'miracle' products on the Q do you see any of the hosts appearing with fewer lines and firmer skin?? No, I haven't either.😀😀😀

@Trinity11 There are reasons why there are constant comments on Josie. She's not "picked on" but she lies and exaggerates and her appearance is often embarrassing. If you love all that, then you enjoy her.
