Then why bother shopping here, there are so many other options?

No snark, just serious question.

Overkill is pretty much the story on QVC these days. Take an idea and promote it until we are sick of it. Then we have the hosts screaming at us, mumbling, just about begging us to order. Some of them sound desperate to save their lucrative salaries.

QVC and other shopping channels are hurting. Yes - if they don't sell the products - out they go!!!!

Ugh. The story is cute, and hyped to the max, but if you check out the ingredients they are not the natural brand they want to be. Goats milk way down on the list. Plus, the soaps lose scent as soon as they come out of the wrapper. This is marketing to the max. Don’t fall for it. If you want natural, shop local.

@Lisamartha - Sorry, but I disagree with this. First of all, the topic of where goat milk is listed in the ingredients has been discussed before. Because they use dried goat milk and the listing is by weight, it shows further down the list. No big deal.

Also, they couldn't get the Clean Beauty designation, if they contained any "unnatural" ingredients.

"Launched by CertClean, the Clean Beauty Awards, recognizes the best performing beauty and personal care products, manufactured without the use of known harmful chemicals, from across the globe. The mission is to accelerate the growth of the clean beauty movement."

Finally, I have and use a lot of these products and have for several years now. The soaps absolutely do not lose their scent as soon as they "come out of the wrapper". DH and I use the soaps both for the shower and hand washing. They retain their scent to the last.

I'm not "falling" for anything - especially unfounded claims.

With all our hand washing and hand sanitizing this year, their goat milk soaps and creams have saved my skin from becoming prune-like! I even bought their hand sanitizer- but have more faith in the alcohol based hand sanitizers.

Re: the scents, I only use the fragrance free 'Pure'. Beekman's customer service told me 'Pure' would be more nourishing than any of the fragranced items.

@Venezia ITA!! I love this line and bought the TSV for Christmas gifts.

We all know the story but have to remember there are always new viewers, so to be fair they just want to tell it to them

When it's the TSV, the product has multiple presentations throughout the day, because not all customers can watch QVC all day long.

There are many that can only watch at certain times, so multiple presentations gives more customers a chance to watch one.

Not all QVC customers are online and can just pull up the item with a video, either.

I love the presentations, but would like to see more cute baby goats.

@RealtyGal2 I too was disappointed there were no baby goats running around this time!

I have a large bar of Beekman's Grapefruit Soap that I've been using in my stall shower over the last few months. I can still smell it in my bedroom. I also use 2 other products in the shower (L'Occitane Oil - and Neutrogena Rainbath Gel.) I get bored using the same products every day. Beekman makes great gifts --- I've given them away in the past and they were so appreciated.

You are entitled to your opinion but not your own facts. Beekman's soap & lotion scents last and their products are certifies as "clean. The goat milk in each differs sometimes its higher or goes lower depending on the products targeted purpose. Best skin & hair care on the market without damaging toxic chemicals.
