Just as FYI, you don't own it. If you're forbidden to open a store to sell your products, are told by your upline how to word posts and what to sell, and your company has an actual CEO, then you don't "own" anything. Drs. Rodan and Fields do.


You think independent contractors have CEOs? You think small businesses have CEOs?

Get an education before you post.


LMAO. Am referring to HunBots actual posts, about how they are "CEOs" and "Own their own business". They own nothing, the majority of MLMs don't even allow them to pass their pyramids down to their kids. But nice, take a cheap shot at me.


Most businesses are not passed down to kids. That does not mean they are not a business. You don't understand business, you only understand "jobs". You don't get how it works.

Men don’t try to sell their products to their friends. On social media. And then tell their friends they too should sell the product.


Men in finance and insurance do.

I love it when the R&F women try to push that they're "small business owners". Um, no.

And the hate comes from how the sales are done. When one of the R&F moms on my DD's sports team used the emergency contact list to get my cell phone number and start to text me about her "amazing products", that's what pissed me off. Then she recruited another mother who sidled up to me, acting like we were now besties, to get me to buy her crap. I had been friendly with these two women, and our DDs were teammates who enjoyed hanging out, but after this experience, we were done. I was friendly, but put a lot of distance between us. Our alleged "friendship" was just a business transaction to them.

Hell one of these women uses her son's special needs to push the products on social media. It's really disgusting.

But I was literally greasy and looked awful. So I gave in and tried R+F Soothe and wow, my skin legit looks and feels much better. I don’t really need the whole regimen and I keep buying mostly just the moisturizer. But it costs a FORTUNE! Literally more in one month than I would usually pay on skin stuff in a year.

Can anyone recommend something similar to R+F Soothe that would work for really really sensitive skin? Ideally fragrance free and not costing four digits for a year’s supply? I wear NO makeup and really only need moisturizer and sunscreen. I would love to stop buying R+F!


L’Occitane


You can find it all over ebay b/c the poor people sucked into the scam have tons of extra product! I'm sure a lot are selling it for much less than original price.

I think Lularoe leggings, shirts, etc. are really ugly.
I do not care much for the designs and the material looks shabby.

Has anyone tried those Thrive Dermafusion Technology patches?
Especially the black labels??

I don't sell or buy these products. But I certainly don't begrudge anyone trying to make a living.


They do it by recruiting desperate women and putting them into debt to make a profit. You are not the customer, the downline is.

I truly ask this in hopes that you think this through. Time and time again I see women preying on other women to sell products so they can "work from home" or be a "mom boss".

Any time a company asks me to give them money before I can sell their product is a RED FLAG. Anyone that wants me to saturate their own selling market is a RED FLAG (because they are getting a piece of your pie by signing you up under them- less work for them!!).

Please be careful and read reviews before you fall into a trap like this.


+1 to all of this! I’ll also add two additional questions:
1. If selling this stuff is so easy and lucrative that it can be done via your phone while at the beach or poolside, why am I seeing countless posts from the top sellers, and even middle earners, at these companies about how hard they’ve worked and all the late nights they’ve sacrificed to either get to the top or at least try? It would appear they’re hustling pretty hard to get and stay where they are, so why not get a f/t job with benefits or even something p/t that’s at least got some stability?
2. Why the secrecy about paychecks? I get that it’s sales and there’s going to be variations but reputable businesses with sales teams usually release their commission structure, or at the very least, don’t prevent their employees from doing so.
