I love QVC and I am a good customer. I love it when you list the ingredients in beauty and skincare. I have recently developed skin allergies to certain preservatives and need to see that list before I buy. Sometimes they are listed and sometimes not. I am watching the Josie Maran products on TV and the presenter and host mentioned that the body butters were just pure argan oil whipped up. I looked at the ingredients and they contain acrylates, one of the things I am allergic to. I love Josie's pure oil but I hope others are not mislead about the ingredients in some of the other products.. I know this doesn't affect most but I also know there are many people out there with these allergies. Just a comment, not mad about anything!

The presenter claims the body butter contains no water and it is the same 100% argan oil only whipped which is false.  The ingredient list shows water as the first ingredient and we all know Ingredients are always listed in proportional order with highest quantities at the top of the list. Argan oil coming third as well as at least three other filler oils....there are about 30 other ingredients so this claim is incorrect and QVC should not mislead it's customers by permitting this claim.

I have had this complaint for many years now.  I have been told you can contact CS and they can email you the ingredients list.  In my mind, that is not the most efficient way to help customers. 

 

Try looking up the product on line and search for the ingredients that way.  Many times I have done this and then not purchased the product from any shopping network.  My allergens are glycols and parabens. Especially propylene & ethylene glycols.  My dermatologist said to stay away from these as they burned my skin not once, but twice!

These alone really limit the number of moisturizers that I can use.  I do like and use the 100% argan oil by Josie Maran. Heart

@Marie Antoinette That is a great idea!  I have a family member who is extremely skin sensitive.  It seems like common sense and the right thing to do.

I agree! I am super sensitive and allergic to most everything. I really react to the chemicals, binders, etc. in makeup to prescriptions. This would be so helpful.
