Mary KayReviews of marykay.com

Mary Kay is a greedy company. It isnt enough that they frontload people with products that DO NOT sell. they discontinue and introduce products every few months making so many have products that are no longer in the catalogs. They go after people trying to recoup SOME of their investment (look up touch of pink and their lawsuit regarding the book). they will go after people that arent even in violation of trademark infringement but their attorneys will tell you in so many words " we have billions and will bankrupt you" the absolute worst company I have ever seen.

Was fraudulently signed up as a consultant over a year ago. Ive called repeatedly and spoken to multiple customer service representatives who agree that I never signed up, however Mary Kay sends me a bill for $20.00 every month. They have assured me this is in error and to disregard. Its now been over a year and 3 months and I'm still receiving the invoice for $20.00 each month. Impossible to get any one on the phone now so I guess they are hoping Ill get so aggravated Ill pay the bill just to get them to stop.

I spent a lot of time thinking about my experience before deciding to write this review. I also researched the experiences of many current and former Mary Kay consultants to better understand the company before making my final decision. From my own experience, I felt some pressure during the process, which prompted me to look into the company further. During my research, I found many former consultants describing similar concerns. While I understand that not everyone’s experience is the same, I noticed repeated accounts of people feeling pressured to purchase inventory they could not afford, encouraged to open high-interest credit cards or take out loans, and told that the financial risk would be minimal when their experiences turned out to be much more costly. Another common concern was the strong emphasis on recruiting new consultants. Many former sellers felt that recruiting and building a team were prioritized over selling products. I also read multiple accounts from people who felt that incentives, gifts, and prizes were used to encourage them to continue purchasing inventory or recruiting others. One former consultant shared that after struggling to recruit people who were willing to buy inventory, she was told she was not working hard enough and was made to feel that she would fail if she did not fully commit to the business. She also felt that her concerns were dismissed when she brought them to her leader. Although this is one person’s account, I found it concerning that similar stories appeared repeatedly throughout my research. I recognize that individual consultants may genuinely care about the people they recruit, and I don’t believe every representative has the same approach. However, based on my own experience, combined with the consistent concerns I found during my research, I do not feel comfortable supporting or representing this company. For that reason, I cannot recommend this opportunity to others.

As a consultant, I have tried repeatedly to call "Customer Service." NO ONE ANSWERS THE PHONE. I purchased a product for personal use, and it is damaged. NO PHONE SERVICE NO EMAIL IS PROVIDED, Why do I sell or purchase this product?

Meine persönliche Erfahrung mit Mary Kay war leider durchweg enttäuschend. Ich habe Produkte von einer Mary-Kay-Beraterin als Geschenk erhalten und mir wurde ausdrücklich gesagt, dass ich sie einfach behalten könne. Umso größer war mein Schock, als ich später plötzlich aufgefordert wurde, diese angeblichen Geschenke doch zu bezahlen. Ein solches Verhalten empfinde ich als respektlos, anstandslos und absolut unprofessionell. Wer etwas verschenkt, sollte nicht im Nachhinein Geld dafür verlangen. So geht man meiner Meinung nach nicht mit Menschen um. Ich wurde schon vorher von mehreren Personen gewarnt, dass sie mit einzelnen Mary-Kay-Vertriebspartnern ähnliche Erfahrungen gemacht hätten. Damals wollte ich das nicht glauben. Nach meinem eigenen Erlebnis kann ich zumindest sagen, dass ich diese Warnungen jetzt deutlich besser nachvollziehen kann. Die Produkte habe ich übrigens nicht einmal benutzt. Ich hätte sie ohnehin verschenkt, weil sie mich persönlich überhaupt nicht interessieren. Zum Glück habe ich sie vorher nicht geöffnet. Auch das Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis überzeugt mich überhaupt nicht. Die Preise empfinde ich persönlich als völlig überzogen. Für deutlich weniger Geld bekommt man meiner Meinung nach wesentlich bessere Produkte. Selbst viele Eigenmarken von dm bieten aus meiner Sicht eine mindestens vergleichbare oder sogar bessere Qualität. Wer hochwertige Pflegeprodukte zu fairen Preisen sucht, ist meiner persönlichen Meinung nach mit Jean & Len deutlich besser beraten. Dort stimmen Preis und Leistung für mich wesentlich mehr. Ich hatte nie besonderes Interesse an Mary Kay und auch nie ein besonderes Vertrauen in die Marke. Ich habe mich lediglich über das vermeintliche Geschenk gefreut. Dass daraus im Nachhinein plötzlich eine Zahlungsforderung wurde, empfinde ich als eine absolut inakzeptable Verkaufsmasche. Dieses Erlebnis hat meinen Eindruck von Mary Kay nachhaltig geprägt. Ich werde meine persönliche Erfahrung auch in meinem Umfeld weitergeben, damit andere selbst entscheiden können, ob sie solche Verkaufspraktiken unterstützen möchten. Für mich hätte dieses Erlebnis nicht einmal einen Stern verdient, eher Minuspunkte!!!!!

Don't fall for the Mary Kay enterprise. I was a consultant for almost 2 years, some of the products are good but when confronted with the questions as to whats healthier the Mar Kay cosmetics have many ingredients in them that are banned in Japan and New Zeland for causing cancer and other harmful effects like skin irritation. When I tried to stop selling the products because my heart could not con people into using products that even made my own skin break out they Terminated my contract and made it to where I was stuck with over $2000 whole sale of inventory that I either used to give away as gifts or compleatly gave to a non charitable program. At least this way I can still use some as a tax write off, when explaining to my director that most of the product's were not selling not only would she not buy them back from me but she kept pushing me to buy more of what does sell, I finally had to tell them that it was Blasphemous that they were using God to sell cosmetics, I cant even get most people to buy what I paid as a whole sale buyer to make my money back. You can find better products in stores such as Sally's, Ulta even Target and Walmart, Cerve, Olay and Clinica are just a few of the much better products with similar or lower costs then Mary Kay. Please Beware of this Company. The customer service i recieved after wanting to send my products back was none to very passive and dismissive will never promote nor use these products as long as I live due to the neglect and out right Blasphemy they sell to the world.

Den Svenska återförsäljaren inom Sverige för Mary Kay har ett generationsskifte, äldre fristående konsulter är inte önskvärda mera en som kunder. Efter 26 år slutar jag även med produkterna. På huvudkontoret i Sverige har man inget socialtsamspel datagenerationen har tagit över och i skrift finns det inga nyanser inga skiftningar och resultatet blir omänskligt, hårt och kallt. Svensk huvudkontoret för Mary Kay har degragerat Mary Kay wourld wide.

Der Vertrieblerin ging es lediglich um den Verkauf der Produkte bzw. hat sie mir einen Beutel übergeben mit den Worten, da ich eine trockene Haut höre, sollte ich dieses Proben testen. Zwei Wochen später hat sie mir eine Rechnung in Höhe von 120€ gestellt. Mit Familienrabatt usw 😉
