Disappointed and feel cheated
I am unhappy with the product and want to return it. I feel cheated since i paid $165.00 for it. I've used products so much cheaper that does not irritate my skin.
Purchased at Myer for $165.
Trapped into buying!! Unethical sellers
I bought this product that i didn’t actually even want today at a Westfield. I was walking past and the salesman lured me in telling me i had to try this sample. He rubbed the product onto my wrist and it was incredible the dead skin that came off and how smooth it was! I told the man i would have a think about it and come back as it is quite pricey ($165), but he did not accept that. He said ‘let me see what i can do!’ and then offered me a discounted price. Again, i said i would have a think about it and come back. He then pressured me furthe...
Read morer by saying he would take it down to $120 for me only. Again, i said i would think about it and possibly come back. He insisted that he would be gone very soon so for the discount i need to get it now. He also asked other strange questions including my age (i am only 18!) and if i have a boyfriend. What was really creepy was he then whispered in my ear “do you want a sexy bag for it or a fancy bag”. I felt so uncomfortable and awkwardly laughed and saying the fancy one. I never even agreed on getting the product before he started putting it into the bag. I then felt the only way to get out of this situation was to just buy it so i did. I had been completely manipulated. I went to my car and i just couldn’t leave the shopping centre as i knew what happened was so wrong and i didn’t actually want the product nor could i afford it. I looked up reviews debating whether i should return it and saw the reviews on this website. So many people with such similar experiences! I knew it was so wrong and unethical so i gathered the courage and returned it to him. I feel so much better now. Lesson learnt!Hi lovely customer, thanks for your review. We are extremely sorry to read this and hear about your experience.

Definitely Not worth the money
The salesman was pushy and there was really no way out! Single mum, 2 kids and he wouldn’t let up! So disappointed at the product too. For the $650 that I spent I should be in love with the product and hanging out to buy again! Im not! He insisted on booking me in for a facial, but I’ve canceled knowing its just a money grab trap. Don’t waste your time with these people!

Pushy Salespeople, forced to buy unwanted product
Bought product from Miranda Westfield several years ago. They pushed for a demonstration and pushed for me to buy a product, I didn't want. I put 3/5 stars because the manuka honey peel was somewhat good. However does not work alone and does not work with their other products, the moisturizer made me break out and left the rest of my skin very dry (I have combination Skin), you'd think if a person forces you to buy it, it would work on the most common skin type but the fact it didn't was false advertising, a con and very invasive. I felt stupid...

This product is absolutely amazing!
First of all, the customer service that I got was so personal and made me feel so special! The girl was lovely, for me it’s really important when I want to try something new . I’m using the manuka honey for the last 3 months and I can really see and feel the change! It’s really help for my acne and black heads, my face so smooth . I mix it with my moisturizer but I’m sure I’m gonna try the other products when I finish mine

Yeah right
Very professional chap introducing this unreconstructed Neanderthal to this product. My natural scepticism kept the $’s in my grubby mitts. If something seems too good to be true it usually is; at this price my ambivalence won hands down.

Staff are predatory
The staff are like seagulls. If you throw chips at them, they'll aggressively eat up the chips you gave and try to coerce you into giving them more. If you show signs of being vulnerable, they'll launch at you aggressively and will try to take every single dollar you have.
They'll manipulate and gaslight you into giving your money wherever they can, and will act aggressive if you don't give in.
You know the manuka honey exfoliator that they put on your hand and when you rub the liquid, white little flakes rubs off on your hand? That's not what a real exfoliator or scrub does. With a bit of research, it's actually GLUE, so when they brush it on your hand, it makes flakes come up.

Just like everyone else in these reviews I was basically coerced into buying this mediocre product. This happened 3-4 years ago - I was only reminded of it when I was cleaning out the bathroom drawers - and it's amazing that the same tactic is still being used! My experience was a little creepier however, as I was only 16 at the time and didn't know how to say 'no' to the creepy and extremely pushy sales rep. He rubbed this stupid stuff all over my face for about 20 minutes, making me extremely uncomfortable, and kept saying how beautiful my sk...

I was in Highpoint getting shoes for work when this lady catches my eye and pushes this free sample into my hands. I was polite and said I have to go. She is asking all these questions and doing my nails when I didn’t ask. She basically forced me to buy this product I can’t afford saying “I will discount it”. She is then trying to push more products on me. It seems like it works well getting rid of dead skin but horrible way to sell products. Are these people trained this way? I am actually scared to walk in that entrance of the mall again. Horrible bullying.

Ok product but horrific company
The product itself is nice to use but I’m not convinced it does what the sellers tell you it does, but also NOT worth the $160 price tag or the absolute bullying you receive to purchase it. I’ve read other reviews from different locations and they have all been identical to my experience. I was lured to try a tester and me being too kind to say no I said ok I’ll take a tester, and the lady dragged me to a seat and made me sit for her to put products on me. I had both of my small children with me in a pram who were obviously upset and wanting me...
Read more to keep walking but she kept pressuring me to stay. She ended up testing this product on my hand and I was moderately impressed but told her I couldn’t afford it. That’s when she offered me a free facial, and I told her no I can’t I have to take my kids home. She walked over to her boss and whispered soemrhing to him and then comes back to me and she literally takes her phone asked for my NUMBER and says she will text me so I have a way to contact her and book in for a free facial when I’m kid free. I foolishly believed her and gave into her pressuring and bought the stupid product hoping to at least get a nice facial out of it. Sure enough I text her the next day to book in a time and no reply. I walk past her at the stall every time I’m in Westfield geelong and feel sick to my stomach that I wasted the last of my money on something she conned me into buying. Seriously people don’t buy from this brand!!!Purchased for $160.

I'm from the Philippines and this product from Australia or owned by an Israeli made my skin worse. I was walking in the mall with my friend and suddenly a lady appeared to my side in front of their shop holding a small teaspoon or whatever you call it with a product on it and started applying something on my skin. My friend told me to ignore, but ignored my friend instead of the sales woman. So we found ourselves sitting on their lobby while the sales woman who approached me continuously applying the thing onto my hand and showed me how the fi...
Read morerst layer of dead skin cells were removed. She applied it to my friend as well, who gave me disgusting looks. So this material is so damn expensive yet I bought it because they promised to change and improve my skin. I'm suffering for pimple breakouts for several years now. Having sensitive skin, I only use Cetaphil as my partner soap. And Micellar toner. Nothing more. My face didn't have pimples for the longest time and I was happy about it since I was able to control it, until this Manuka thing came to my life. It's disgusting how they keep lowering the price from ₱6,000 plus to ₱4,000 just for me to get it. The sales woman told me "Sir, this is the first time I'm doing this but I'm going to give this for you at a lower price. Not only that, you can have you free facial today as well. I'm also giving this voucher to you for next month so that you can avail the free facial. Sir, this is the first time I'm doing this and I'll only do it for you since my boss is not here". "Wow!" I uttered inside my head. "What a nice woman she is". Of course, because I'm stupid and gullible. Then, her assistant was like "imagine that sir". It feels like I owe her something for giving that magical voucher to me. She even showed me pictures of some of her clients. The before and after pics that represents how changed they are right now. So, next I found myself in front of their cashier and swiping my debit card. It actually failed twice then I told her to try it again bypassing the PIN. Woah! It worked. I was charged. How the heck didn't I listen to my guardian angel who was trying to save me at that very moment? I found myself next lying on their bed and one of their therapist working on my free facial. She was kind and nice though but I hate the fact that she didn't wear some gloves and keep touching my face with her bare hands. She even mentioned she ate nuts before that. I wonder if she washed her hands though? So unpro. Not sure if I'm gonna user their soap made from the Dead Sea.Purchased in at Pain Stop.
Correction: I didn't buy it from Painstop. It's from an SM branch here in the Philippines. No option for it so I had to choose whatever appeared.

Really is amazing
Gosh this stuff is amazing. I wish I could afford to maintain using it. Have used up 2 bottles in the last 3+ years.. and will buy again once finances allow. I had a pushy sales rep, but I just told them let the product sell itself mate, and it sure did.
