I went to the Northridge Fashion Center on Thursday, hoping for a safe and enjoyable shopping trip. It started pleasantly until I came across this store called the Soap Tree. I didn't want to go inside, but I was strongly pressured to try their products. Then one of the sales reps manipulated me and wouldn't let me leave until I purchased their eye wrinkle-reversal cream. This came out to 275 dollars, which I did not intend to spend at all. It started at 150, and then for another 100 I would get the facial. I was highly pressured into spending money I did not have on this. Then the man tried pressuring me into buying treatments ranging from 6,000 to 20,000. I did not have that kind of money, and he tried every trick in the book to make me pay that kind of money. This left me feeling incredibly depressed, without money for basic necessities and feeling used and manipulated. This business is very shady and is only going to bring a bad taste to the northridge fashion center.

I just bought this product in New Orleans, and it's a complete scam, a very well-executed one at that. You can tell it's been carefully planned and perfectly implemented. The young woman who sold me the product is incredibly skilled, but after trying it, I realized it only has a very short-lived effect. The promises they make are outrageous, and when you refuse to buy, she offers you a product with a half-torn box at half price! In short, a superb scam! Stay away!

A month ago, we were subjected to unbelievable high pressure sales tactics at an Avinichi store by a senior beauty consultant in Causeway Bay in Hong Kong. After being ushered into their store, my wife was reluctantly subjected to a long 30 minutes sales session to test and buy this unbelievable new moisturiser cream which supposedly removes baggy skin from eyes, applied by this fancy looking chrome applicator. It had all seem to work pretty successfully, but whether it was going to be permanent or not we weren't sure. Then we told that it would cost HK$14,000. Wow we thought! Then still being unsure, the price was then reduced down to HK$10,000. Still unsure, the store manager came out of his office and advised that their best and final price would be HK$8,000......only if we purchase the product there and then. A eftpos/credit card machine was then brought out to seal the deal. Gosh.... talk about high pressure sale tactics! We said that we were still undecided (of course the product still being so expensive}, and that we would wait a day to think about it. Of course, we never returned to that store the very next day!

While in Vail in July, 2025, I purchased an Avinichi eye cream (Wrinkle Reversal Solution) from Vail Cosmetics / Vail Skin Philosophy. The stores promoted Avinichi as some kind of medical-grade skincare with permanent anti-aging results. The sales pitch was aggressive and manipulative, with claims of dermatologist endorsements and fake urgency (“only today,” “exclusive pricing,” etc.). After researching the ingredients, I learned the cream only provides temporary effects, not the medical results claimed. Things like silicates, mica, and pigment that only mask lines temporarily. Nothing that supports the permanent ‘wrinkle reversal’ Avinichi and its retailers advertise. I reached out to Avinichi directly to alert them to the deceptive business practices and false endorsements their retailers are engaging in – which yielded zero results. After posting factual reviews about my experience and the products, the store owner tried to pressure me into removing them in exchange for a refund, with texts, voicemails, and emails from a dubious “customer service” address, coercing me to remove my reviews. The Avinichi website markets lofty claims, with no real results or credible proof. The FTC Health Products Compliance Guidance (Dec 2022) requires competent and reliable scientific evidence for claims of structural or lasting effects from marketers, which includes cosmetics. And last I looked, the website listed nearly 2,000 reviews, with 99% of them being 5 star; the other 1% is 4 star. Begs the question of authenticity. My experience aligns with many other consumer complaints about these same operators under different store names and product labels. Be very cautious. This is not a legitimate luxury skincare brand, but part of a well-documented pattern of scams. I’ve reported the store and Avinichi’s marketing practices to the appropriate consumer and regulatory agencies for review.
