What MLM product is my mate flogging?

[MoonfacedMilksop]

I’ve noticed over the last couple of weeks that a uni mate is posting increasing amounts of total bollocks on Facebook. As expected a couple of days ago I got a message “Hey Hun, how are you babe? I can’t believe it’s been so long since I’ve seen you! I’d love to meet for a chat when restrictions are eased - I’ve got some really exciting news to share with you! ❤️❤️🌸🌈.”

I’m not replying as I don’t want to end up being guilted into buying a load of diet shakes or shitty scented candles or whatever. I can’t work out what she’s selling though. It looks like she’s selling meditation but I didn’t know you could buy that. Books on meditation, maybe?

I’ve (hopefully) attached some of her posts with photos removed. Does anyone know what MLM this is? It’s not important, it’s just irritating me that I don’t know.

Here it is...🌱💕

Pop into your supermarket store and buy one of the following:

✌️BUT.... there’s a catch. 🤗🤔They HAVE to be grown in nutrient-rich-soil, be 100% pesticide and herbicide-free, non-GMO, be picked only at their peek ripeness, be NSF certificated and tested to make sure there’s no traces of mold, bacteria or viruses.

Your Budget is $4.00
Can you do it?

......No one can!
That’s why my whole family, for the last 4 years, take these whole food capsules and chews to fill the gap - all the above, water removed, super cold / fast dried, max nutrients, enzymes intact and contained in vegan capsule - I call them Mother Nature Harnessed and my Daily Health Defense🙌🏻

*oh and if you invest in you and your health, one of your kids or a child you know gets theirs complimentary 🤩🥳- I pay a contribution toward it 👏🎉💓

Squirtle I saw that post without seeing the previous comments and was about to report it as spam 🤣

squirtlesquad I think you’re right! It would explain the ‘men are an army, women are a tribe’ wank as well. It looks like it’s vitamin gummies and healthy snacks. Well that’s boringly normal without any drugs at all.

@squirtleSquad - so just the same as JuicePlus - down to the advert wording, the certified studies and the free child gummies......

The previously mentioned doc - drmitraray.com/

it probably is juice plus under a new marketing scheme. I found out that Juice plus was at one point endorsed by OJ Simpson Don't see them peddling that bit of info much.

My DP's cousin posts about the Tribal wellness thing, she's in Australia. She sent him a message and it was Juice Plus. Which I'd already guessed!

The line "when women support each other incredible things happen" makes me cringe.

I have a friend like this - always pushing some MLM. She styles herself as a life coach now.

I don't like the insinuation that by not buying her latest twaddle I'm not "supporting women".

My friend's latest "business" is as a spiritual life coach. She'll read you 3 tarot cards on a Sunday night for only £29.99 per month.

Oh my ! MLM BINGO - Thriving , wellness , being on a journey , cheeky bubbles, nourishing our souls , being the best version of ourselves 😂. it’s got everything- please tell us you will go OP and report back😬

If I ate all that lot I'd be on the toilet for a week. So, I can just take a pill instead. Hmmm.

No, wait...

"Cheeky bubbles" and "nourishing our souls" made me feel

Also, the word "wellness" really annoys me nowadays, it's so overused and such a pretentious cliche

I've got a FB hun who flogs that Thrive LeVel stuff. PREMIUM vitamins dontcha know! Despite having no quals beyond being a great waitress, she is also touting herself as a Life Coach, and is writing a book aaallll about it. I recall a post she put up a few years ago about how she only needed to work at selling this garbage for a year and half, for then she would be a millionaire! I am often tempted to try to find that post and ask how's working out for her.

@MoonfacedMilksop

evilharpy do you know anything about aromatherapy by any chance? When I was in Thailand years ago everywhere had oil burners that burned what I think was sandalwood. Whenever I have used sandalwood it’s smelled minging though! Does it need to be mixed with something? The only people I know who would know this are Scentsy Huns and if I show a flicker of interest I’ll never be left alone again.

Sorry I really don't know - sandalwood isn't one that I have! I keep meaning to buy a bottle. Do you remember was it an oil they used in Thailand or was it something like incense? What oil have you been using?

@MoonfacedMilksop also should have said - the reason I don't have a bottle is because sandalwood is expensive! Looking at Tisserand which is a brand I like, it's £14.50 for 2ml which is about right if not a bit on the cheap side. If you paid a lot less, you've probably bought a bottle of snake oil with fake perfume and it probably does smell shite.

Juice Plus is famous for groups of huns hiding behind some other name like “Team Wanky-Wellness” and lots of these MLMs have adopted the influencer style of implied luxury /perfect lifestyle because they’ve got into so much trouble with direct income claims.

Juice Plus also love to bang on about their “gold standard” peer reviewed studies which are nothing of the sort and are usually studies relating to some vegetable which appears in dust form in one of their ridiculous supplements, rather than any evidence of JP products themselves being any good. The other “study” they cite was a survey of various JP hun asking their JP hun friends whether JP was life changing and improved their child’s health through the ingesting of overpriced gummy vitamins, to which they all replied “yes, it’s brilliant”. So I think that’s the unbiased proof we need to go ahead and sign up isn’t it huns?

I’m very interested in these scams; here’s a website I run with some others: www.mlmtruth.org

You could add organic, 100% certified, freeze dried magic mushrooms to the mix/juice??? Maybe mad friend had done this, which is why she thinks mlm works?

"Cheeky bubbles" and "nourishing our souls" made me feel

Yes! I was just about to say anyone who writes "cheeky bubbles" would be off my fb list

Christ just tell them you don't have spare money for it
