Has Anyone Tried Arvone or Arbonne?

[pamperedalf]

I have a past host who is just starting a home based biz called Arvone! I tried googling it and did not get much. Let me know please!! TIA

 

[lisacb77]

Maybe it is Arbonne? They have makeup, skincare etc.

 

[The_Kitchen_Guy]

Srure, I harve!Dring-Drong! Arvone calling!

 

[pamperedalf]

It could be, she said they have vitamins and skin care... I don't know she asked if I would do a show to help her get her biz going. She was one of my first parties out of my circle so I said yes. I was just trying to research it!

 

[pamperedalf]

KG I thought she said Avon when she left a message, but it wasn't... You are too funny!

 

[pamperedalf]

Okay I am assuming that it is arbonne, those of you who know about this product do you like, what do you like about it? thanks again!!

 

[chefbritt]

Their lotions are great, I have sensitive skin and eczema and they are the only products that work well for me and don't make my skin break out. They're a bit expensive for my budget though....

the ginger citrus body scrub , shower gel, candle and body butter

Now I know where I've seen it before - Cin-Arbonne - it's at the mall, Between the Steak Escape and Chik-fil-A. They make those really good smelling pastries!

 

[lisacb77]

You are right, it's Arbonne...they have vitamins too.

I like the almond body wash & butter. That being said, I agree with Britt on the price. I paid $16 for a lipstick that broke on the first use and my consultant kept promising to reorder and never did...plus she screwed up my last order and left off my massage oil and never replied on me getting that either! But she is a little dingy so there you go

 

[lisacb77]

Man KG don't make me crave cinnamon rolls...I may have to go make some pull aparts!!!!!

Arbonne is awesome! The skin care is so amazing and I have heard good things about the weight loss stuff.

I take the Arbonne vitamin pack for women. They're a little pricey, but they replaced a slew of supplements I was taking, so the cost wound up being about what I was already paying. I like the convenience. A friend's DIL is a consultant, and they both love it.

I use their NutriMin C line of skincare and love it. It is a tad on the pricey side but the effects are well worth the money.

I am going to a Arbone meeting tonight. I don't really want to go but it is one of those situations where a good friend has asked me. I tried their products and did like them, but I am not ready to sign up. I am just fine with PC.

I love Arbonne products too! My SIL sells it

Think of all the leads you're going to meet - people who might like to start a home based business and haven't made a decision yet.

 

[quiverfull7]

And that WE don't have to put our money for inventory!

 

[The_Kitchen_Guy]

And we have no shelf life to worry about.

I have someone wanting me to start to sell Melaleuca. Anyone heard of that?

 

[JWorks]

my stepson has acne real bad and tried the arbonne skin cair line for acne and was working great. a little expensive so we didnt keep with it and decided to go pro active. so far i think the arbonne was 100 times better.

There seems to be a thread like this one every month. It's simple, really. Whenever someone sees the success of companies like The Pampered Chef or Mary Kay, they want to emulate the model and try to make a similar success story. There are copy cats everywhere.Witness the success of McDonalds, followed by Burger King, Wendy's and a parade of many burger (and restaurant) chains that have come, gone or even hung around. Whenever a new franchise opportunity shows promise, a myriad of "Me, Too!" franchises pop up right away - Auntie Ann's spawned pretzel chains, Starbucks prompted coffee franchising and how many mail box & shipping stores can survive? Noodles & Co. has created a flow of noodle restaurants and how many bread stores are there?For every twenty of these home-base business start-ups, there may be one with some potential but it sure is difficult to decide which of the myriad might be the one. They all make a lot of noise and the recruits are filled with excitement. Just a couple of months ago, there was a thread up here about a start-up housewares catalog that was going to put TPC out of business. For me, it's easy. I'm sticking with the proven winner. I haven't got 30 years to recover from an investment mistake that you twenty-somethings have. You can go for it if you like and maybe strike it rich but I'm staying with the establishment.

 

[krzymomof4]

I am by no means giving up my day job!!! I am just now starting to really like it.

 

[pcchris]

Mr Kitchen Guy - VERY well put! I agree 110% with you!

 

[quiverfull7]

Not only are you full of wit KG.. .but vast wisdom as well!

 

[janetupnorth]

I had someone here tried to get me to sign up with Arbonne over the last 6 months. I like their products, but very pricey and I just can't keep myself to a "skin care regime" to use them regularly. I use the scrubs on occasion, I use the lotion for my daughter because she is ultra-sensitive to perfumes, etc., but not for me to sell...

 

[lacychef]

It might be Arvonne....my girls' dance teacher is the founder of Livinity & she was telling me yesterday that she was going to tour a bunch of other companies, and it seems like this is one she mentioned. I could be wrong though...
Yes, I've heard of Melalueca....my parent's were in that for about 15 years. They have good products, but they never made any money.

 

[pamperedalf]

I heard of Melalueca, a lady tried to get me signed up. But to me it was too much like Amway that I ran....I wasn't trying to get anyone to sell or sell this stuff myself. I am suppose to have a party for this girl and I had no clue what this stuff is and told her I would research it!! So far what I am hereing is the it is good stuff but too $$. I just hope I can qualify her for a show! We will see.....

I use Arbonne's skin care/anti aging line and I really like it. I got a good deal on it when I started and it was a big discount the consultant was personally giving and donating her commission to a breast cancer fundraiser. I'm not good with regimens because most nights I"m up WAY too late and I just want to go to bed. But, the days I do the whole routine, I DO notice a difference with my skin. When I skimp and do my standby old cleanser, it doesn't leave my skin as soft.

I have met more new Arbonne consultants than anything else over the last year. Maybe it's just booming in my area, but talk about saturation! I think it's much harder to grow a customer base one person at a time (most don't seem to focus on the parties and skin care classes, but individuals who use their trial kits) than it is to be exposed to people in bigger groups like our Cooking Shows. Yes, yes, I know they have re-orders, but I think it takes a good amount of work for one of their consultants to convince a customer to start using it. And I know for me, I've slacked off on reorders because it isn't cheap!

 

[gratergirl]

Definitely....I use Arbonne and it's a little pricey...but well worth it! I love their night creme....I have the dryest skin in the world!
