Opinions on Merle Norman Beauty Products

Has anyone ever used MN? I tried their light sunscreen and I love it. Doesn't cause me to break out. I have samples of other products. What do you think?

Excellent quality, imo. Personal service, face to face consultations, great GWPs, just amazing.

Re: Opinions on Merle Norman Beauty Products

I use to sell MN products many years ago in the late 70's, early 80's.

It is was an OK product.

There was a store that moved into my small town for about 6 months. I tried MN once again, and wow, I began breaking out quite severely.

I can not wear MN products any longer. I break out quite badly. Even face wash, I have to be careful. I break out.

I use their eyebrow powder. Lasts all day. I've been using it at least 5 years.

I rarely read anything about MN cosmetics here or anywhere. Have you checked out reviews on Makeup Alley and also see what Paula Begoun says about it.

I used MN close to 40 yrs. ago. I'm sure it's been through many changes since then.

I have used Merle Norman in the past and I really like their cosmetics, but I don't use their skin care. I now use Philosophy skin care. I was once a Mary Kay consultant and used their skin care, but I prefer the Philosophy for my skin care needs. My sister and sister-in-law use Merle Norman and love it.

Hard to find a MN shop these days. This may have been one of the first lines I ever used, but that was close to 40 years ago! Back then they had nice color cosmetics. I remember their milky cleanser...Lactic acid - okay that was good! But I have no idea what types of things they have today.
