Beauty Vendor calling his products MAGICAL

SeaMaiden · ‎03-10-2010

On HSN the vendor Nassif(plastic surgeon) keeps calling his Detox Pads MAGICAL. THAT IS JUST SUCH BULL. I would think he would not use such wording. Makes him appear so in unethical and appear like a snake oil salesman. Plus it is demeaning to the intelligence of his viewer/ consumer.

@SeaMaiden, Thanks for the tip. Magic? I’ll have to check it out. I have bought buckets of skin care over the years, hoping for magic that never comes. Call me an eternal optimist - but really gullible.

I am using many products and am getting such great results that I would describe them as magical!! I am constantly trying new products and some are just ok but there are many that work great. Nothing works for everyone but there are products that will work for everyone if they choose to improve the condition of their skin. Nothing will make anyone look 20 years younger. It's ok also if some don't want to find and use products that would make a huge difference. I don't find it demeaning nor unethical in any way. If anyone finds it demeaning to their intelligence - well that is a self esteem issue on their part!!!

I'm not at all offended by the use of the term "magical" in this case. It's a sales pitch...nothing more. I can't imagine anyone taking it "literally".

I personally find it tacky. He also called another one of his products magical on the same show this morning. Just not necessary to use that wording....

I use those pads and while I do like them, they are def not magical!

The magic part is how our money disappears trying all this miracle products!

Those pads contain mostly witch hazel and some topical acids. The rest of it is solvents, skin conditioners, a dash of retinoid and preservatives. Nothing 'magical' about that stuff at all.
