Am I the only one who thought no way should Amy be advertising the TSV yesterday. If you did not know she had a chemical peel, I would have thought it was from that. Poor planning for sure.

No. Red light masks do not cause the skin to peel. 

 

ETA- 

Red light masks are high-tech beauty devices. Understanding how they work is helpful and for someone who doesn't understand the technology then making assumptions about what a mask will do is not acceptable. I've used red light devices for a long time. I know a lot about them.

Looks scary. If I saw somebody with that thing on I'd scream and find an exit.

 

500 to boot.   Forget about it.

Did a littlr research. This model does Not treat  Roscea  as other brands do which was not addressed by the product Rep nor QVC Hosts . Also no warnings  such as those with  Discoid Lupus  should not use .

 Those pictures of so called improvements did not seem so drastic to me

I knew I wasn't interested in the item and I don't watch Amy but I understand what you're saying and agree. The casual observer would think twice. Like others on another thread, I question the judgement associated with having a chemical peel knowing one then had to go on TV, especially when promoting beauty products. One also has to question QVC's judgement in not doing a host shuffle.

They can't discuss medical issues when presenting products on-air or state that a product can treat a medical problem. 
Most red light therapy masks reduce inflammation which is part of having rosacea. I don't have rosacea but I have a considerable amount of redness b/c of an AI condition I have. The mask helps reduce the redness a lot and that's mostly why I use it.

When someone knows they are scheduled to be on air, a fresh chemical peel isn’t something you “time wrong.” It’s a choice. And when that choice is paired with a speech about how the one thing she doesn’t like is when people don’t fess up to what they have done, it starts to feel less like transparency and more like sales‑persona spin, and yes, attention‑seeking. 

 

I think QVC approved of the “honesty” angle. That whole If I’m transparent about this, “trust me” vibe fits perfectly into the sales pitch.

@Kathyfobo


Does that mean QVC should be discriminating and ONLY let hosts with perfect skin present facial items. 🥴


Therefore EXCLUDING anyone having Acne, Rosacea, Psoriasis, Vitiligo, scarring, sunburn, rashes, etc etc. 😳

Apples and oranges.

 

The things you mentioned aren't a choice.  Amy's was.

The OP was referring to the appearance of her skin…



No different than having a black/red eye or even worse waking up with Bell’s Palsy. 🥴
