Jamberry is hugely overpriced nail wraps that look no different to the ones you can buy in the pound shop, except a sheet of Jamberry wraps costs something insane like £15. No idea how you apply them or how long they last but the photos I've seen online look tacky and rubbish.

cozietoesie · 17/07/2017 21:05

Have a look at the Botwatchblog Directory of MLM Information Aunt. Smile Jamberry is included in the specific companies - along with some good reading material for you to take on board.

AuntMatilda · 17/07/2017 21:45

Thank you both. Apparently you apply them with a hairdryer and they last forever. (According to my friends posts)There is no chance on god's green earth I'd pay that much for something to put on my nails!

BSintolerant · 17/07/2017 22:42

These nail wraps are applied with .... (said in my best Lady Bracknell voice)

a HAIRDRYER?

What if your hairdryer is broken? Broken hair appliances cause so much trouble for bots you know. Grin

TrippleFlappyDiamondSparrow · 17/07/2017 22:49

For £15 you could literally go and have gel put on by a professional that last a good 3 weeks. Sigh 😥

NikiBabe · 17/07/2017 23:26

With It Works, spending £100 for a box of 4 wraps that last you 12 days, then you may aswell have a full body wrap treatment at a good spa every month.

Just watched Top Salon Bot With The Prosthetic Teeth do a FB Live video and she has decided her next totes-amazeballs challenge to herself is to build homeless shelters! Yes, as she says, she often walks around her town pitying all the houseless proles who can't afford a white Range Rover, business class upgrades on EasyJet or laser-teeth whitening, and comes over all Mother Theresa meets Katie Price, the Jordan years.

I wonder what this Nobel Peace Prize winner-in-waiting will accomplish next? Free eyelash curlers on the NHS? Government subsidised tanning sessions? Hosting the new BBC extravaganza "Downlines In Need?" The mind boggles!!

TrippleFlappyDiamondSparrow · 18/07/2017 18:23

The comments on backinbirkenheadwithnoflat bot's selfie's off women with clearly no standards actually make me feel sick. 😷

lasagnefortea · 18/07/2017 19:38

Tripple - he's a proper catch now that he's earning a "potential extra 1-3k a month"

Moose23IsHungry · 18/07/2017 19:51

backinbirkenheadwithnoflat's followers confuse me. What's in it for them? There is a bot girl with a name the same as a high end cosmetic manufacturer (let's call her makeupbrand bot) who comments on every single one of his statuses - she must be head over heels for him?

lasagnefortea · 18/07/2017 20:06

Moose - posh makeup girl always says cryptic things like "One day I'll join your team when I'm strong enough". Most odd!

Penelopepyramid · 18/07/2017 20:21

Yes the Fb live of Salonbot was an Oscar winning performance. She does need to polish up on her ersatz tears-of-joy method acting when describing the wonderfulness of her #bossbabe downline.

If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck...

I'm mesmerised by paranormal bot. Partly because eyebrow bot (which was a compliment at the start, but that doesn't fit her narrative) and salon bot have blocked me. As has smoked rasher bot.

I'm good at getting blocked. Sometimes it takes no effort whatsoever Grin

miffytherabbit1974 · 18/07/2017 22:14

Hi Acatcalledjohn or other helpful souls. Would it be possible if I could PM'd as I'm not certain who Paranormalbot is or Eyebrowbot? Maybe I already know of them, but I hadn't realised their nicknames.

I know who Stokeflatbot and Salonbot are. Any help would be much appreciated.

Thank you :)

TrippleFlappyDiamondSparrow · 18/07/2017 22:59

Yes!! I have noticed poshmakeup bot also. She comments on every single thing he posts. She literally looks like she believesaid he is God's gift. Bet she would love a dick pic!

lasagnefortea · 18/07/2017 23:38

Poshmakeupbot was in Maelle, now is peddling some really gunky lipgloss called LipSense that costs 18 squid a tube (plus postage no doubt). Bargain!

She also buys "the immune" off BirkenheadNoFlatBot - why are all the bots getting colds if "the immune" is doing what it's supposed to do?

AuntMatilda · 18/07/2017 23:46

Could someone please tell me what all these nicknames (eg salonbot and backinbirkenheadwithoflats ) mean? Thank you

acatcalledjohn · 19/07/2017 10:49

Browbot, browbot, browbot. Tut tut.

Well done for doing a video on cyber bullying. Really, well done. Especially because it's for a secondary school. Clearly it worked, given that a few days ago you shared a message from a 14YO about how good it was.

Thing is, today you tell us it is only being launched in the school today.

So something tells me you have simply mastered the art of polishing bull poo. You are not bullied. Au contraire, my dear, your eyebrows are on fleek, as is your eyeliner. What is happening is that people are calling you out on the bovine excrement which you share all over your very public pages.

Moose23IsHungry · 19/07/2017 11:10

Will the video contain subliminal "buy aloe" frames sewn into the footage?

Will it mention that she is a bully who pressures her teamies into making the CCs each month? Or that it's okay to miss a wedding because your GHD broke?

She needs to know the difference between bullying and being called out for promoting a scam.

NikiBabe · 19/07/2017 11:32

My mlm friend has been giving her kids the it works products daily.

One is called greens and is a supplement to replace fruit and veg. Nice.

Read the label, it contains white willow which is a salicylate very close to aspirin and the label says not to be used for children.

Her kid is 4.

Wow.

acatcalledjohn · 19/07/2017 11:34

Replace fruit and veg?

How to fuck up your child's diet for life, lesson 1.

NikiBabe · 19/07/2017 11:39

Yup.

It wasnt a marketing ploy either for once.

It was just a pic of them together and someone asked what her son was drinking.

It works greens. Jesus.

Charteta · 19/07/2017 12:30

Would someone mind PMing me the names of the Bots? I've fallen into this after getting a Facebook message of a friend of my mothers offering me "a way to supplement my income as living in London is soooo expensive"
Googled Forever Living and this thread was one of the answers, and wow, my mind is blown!

lasagnefortea · 19/07/2017 17:32

Living in London will be a hell of a lot more expensive if you have to factor in buying £400 worth of Forever Dead aloe shite each month or whatever they expect you to use as your own personal stash.

lasagnefortea · 19/07/2017 17:34

In other good news, BirkenheadNoCarNoFlatBot has made 2 referrals to the new Insurance-MLM-Ponzi-Make£3000InYourSleep-ButStillCan'tBuyACar-scheme that he's peddling and he's the NUMBER 2 salesperson in the UK already! What a quick ascent to the dizzying heights!
