Thoughts on Sonya Dakar skin care?

sandylu · ‎08-15-2010

New skin care line offered on the other shopping channel. Sounds very interesting and little similar to other ingredients. Any thoughts????

Thanks

Odd pricing. Some kits are in the $70 range and individual items are priced up to $175.00 each.

For what it is it seems over priced.

One of the nice things about Evine is that they list their ingrediants online, so that anyone who is interested is able to read them before buying.

The before and afters on skin tone were nice. I did not see much of a difference in the puffy eyes, but they used a model with serious puffs: not just the morning type.

The host mentioned something to the effect that she had been considering a procedure and how Sonya's products had helped her. I thought she said the same thing a few weeks ago about Skinn. I don't mind hosts using more than one line (I do) but . . .

The masks and peels looked interesting to me. I remember loving an Aloette (enzyme type gel) peel from way back when I could get it cheap on one of the Southern channels that no longer sells beauty.

The sizes were small, I have been buying a bit of skincare lately, so this is going to fall into the "I can't buy everything catagory".

I hope that anyone who purchases will review.

Do the math.

I loved that Aloette Grapefruit Green Gel Enzyme Peel, in fact I think I still have one stashed away in my linen closet, it was sold on Shop At Home out of Nashville.

All I know is she has an excellent reputation so I would expect it to be good.

I tried a trial kit quite a number of years ago and I really liked the products. I believe she has revamped her line and these products are different than the ones I tried. I did order one of the kits from Evine and am looking forward to trying it.

Just based on her professional reputation, I would not.

She is known for grossly overcharging people. I mean grossly. Her reviews are horrible both inside and outside the industry. I know people who have been charged for trying to change the date of the appt. They require CC info to book appt and when they called to change the appt they moved the appt date for the appt but also charged them a fee ($200) for missing the first appt and then the fee for the actual facial. They didn't notice until they got their CC statement later that month and were not told they would be charged for moving the appt. I could see if they did it last minute but this was done almst one month in advance. I have heard about countless people who booked an appt for a facial that cost a certain amount and then when they went to check out and pay, they tried to charge them well over the amount. Some over by almost $1500. When they refused the police were called but thankfully it went in their favor. I have heard this countless times, too many to think it was exception. Your staff doesn't behave like that if they know it isn't acceptable so it must be acceptable to her to run her business like that.

@Irshgrl31201 Wow. Didn't know all that. I've only heard raves about her.
