Q carries numerous brands and price points of various items.

makeup

hair care lines

clothing

handbags
shoes

etc

they need to do the same with argan oil products.

you're missing sales QVC

the JM fans will still be there and buy,  nothing to worry about

@TheMemphisVette   I may be in the minority, but you can purchase that oil and many others in many other stores...even WholeFoods and Trader Joes.

JM's oil is not as pure as she claims....many other ingredients and her "pitch" is over the top. I purchase my oils in health food stores/Vitamin Shops, too.

@TheMemphisVette @Shanus  - I've often wondered what the difference is with JM's oil versus other argan oil brands.  Why is JM so much more expensive than other brands?

@San Antonio Gal   Short answer is people are willing to pay for it. Longer answer is the covenience of ordering it from Q and being done with it instead of shopping around for a better deal. 

Many women are caught up in the hype and mermaid outfits with tanned, oiled up skin which looks better if so much oil is constantly applied during an hour presentation....surgery helps more than argan oil ever will.

I have purchased argan oil from various retailers. Can't seem to discern a difference between Josie Maran and Vitacost except the packaging and price!

JM is making a fortune off Q buyers overpaying 

I get my 100% organic Argan Oil from Trader Joe's

If the model Adae only uses Josie's argan oil, then I'm sold!!

Actually, I did try the reserve, but found it to be no better (or no worse) than my favorite rose hip seed oil. Argan is not an oil I go out of my way to use -- at least on its own.

Highly recommend The Plant Guru on Etsy for this and other oils/butters including organics.

They have their own site as well and accept returns. Been very pleased with quality and pricing.

The model Adae always looks shiny and greasy....if that's the look you want than go for it.

@SeaMaiden  I was thinking more that she has totally looking firm, unlined, poreless [albeit shiny] skin. I have my vulnerable areas. Of course I'm sure I'm older than she.
