Re: Why doesn't Perricone himself appear on QVC

Who presents products is negotiated in multi-million dollar contracts between QVC and the vendors. We don't know why he's not on air, but the answer most likely has to do with profit.

Whether he or any other head of company presents their products is of no real importance. That doesn't make the products automatically horrible. Don Aslet for one never presents his own products either but I've never heard anyone say they wouldn't purchase anything. Women are still flocking to buy BE in spite of Leslie not presenting her line anymore.

To me it says he doesn't want to inconvenience his patients or halt his research when he has someone who can present his products probably even better than he ever could. Dana believes in his products and it's obvious that she is not just there for the money and that says way more to me than having Dr Perricone himself there. He probably has many more irons in the fire than the others also. I use a few of his products and they are by far much better than any other products I've ever tried.

Joan Rivers is very controlling and wants to be front and center because she's a publicity hound which is her choice but then so many complain about her when she's on so it would be better for her to stay home anyway. Dr Denesse and some of the others probably don't see as many patients because she does the presenting plus they are all younger and while I don't know her or the others that present their products in person, I would tend to think they wouldn't trust anyone else to present their products. It doesn't matter - if I want to try a product I will buy it regardless of who is presenting it.

Don Aslet, when his products were first on QVC, was the only one who appeared on with his products for years. That's why I like his stuff because I liked him. I think he's older now and that's why he doesn't do it anymore.

I use his products and they work for me...I don't care if he appears on QVC. The proof is in the using..that is the only way I know if it works. And I need to see a difference right away and with his products..I do.

Probably because he looks every one of his 66 years of age.

Re: Why doesn't Perricone himself appear on QVC

Last time I checked, Nicholas Perricone was an MD, and founder of a major skin care line. He wasn't and isn't today, a model. These comments insulting his appearance are both mean and irrelevant. Skin care can improve one's complexion. That's pretty much it. I'm impressed with people who opt to take care of themselves using topical treatments, regimens, diets, and nutritional supplements. I've learned a lot from his books and love his product line.

As for some weird, compelling need to critique his handsomeness, get over it.

How old is Dr Perricone? Someone said he was in his late 70's ... does anyone know?

Re: Why doesn't Perricone himself appear on QVC

I've said it before, but sometimes it bears repeating. Oftentimes, growing up with terrible acne and all that goes along with it in the form of physical appearance and emotional abuse is the impetus that causes someone to become a dermatologist.

Many of you spend hours here in Beauty Banter. You try numerous products. How many of you have flawlessly perfect complexions?

When Fredric Brandt presented on QVC, people complained that he was too funny looking and should have had a sales rep. You can't please everybody all the time.

To those who are so quick to point out everyone's flaws, please attach your picture so we can be overwhelmed with your perfection.
