Origani Erda Manuka Honey Peel

The first and second time after using the Erda Manuka Honey peel probably felt the most different. My skin was instantly smoother, and was able to absorb my moisturizer easier. Now, this is the fourth week (once a week) that I have tried using the peel. My skin has been consistently feeling smooth, and is slowly feeling even smoother. I have sensitive skin, so I am glad that so far I have not experience any issues with it. In the past, I have used other brand of exfoliating gel of a similar price. It was nice, but not as gentle as this Manuka honey peel. So I am happy with the product. King was the sells introduced me the product, and it was at the Brisbane city Myer store. Also,… I did ask how long this bottle will last, and the sales told me it should last around 2 years. So I hope it does last that long, because to be honest, I still think the price is a bit too high.

I was invited to go into the shop to have a sample of Manuka Honey Peel. I have combination skin, so after apply this product I felt my skin so smooth and hydrated.
The staff was really nice with me and my mother, I just loved the experience in the shop. After one month I had a facial experience in the shop and I got the toning cleanser and day cream from Erda collection. It is the first time that a skincare is working perfect for me.

Was pushed to buy this product because of an exclusive "student discount" still paid a high price for it. The product is not amazing and would not recommend buying it!

The pushy sales woman said this product is GUARANTEED to help Rosecea and Excema on my face but demonstrated on my hand. I have used it twice and it burns!

I usually don't post reviews, especially when I haven't used the product, however I have been reading other reviews about the sales staff and have to agree. I know about selling products, but when you need to lie about yourself and "special deals" then you lose me. The price of the product is exorbitant. The product presentation reminded me of a sleight of hand magic trick. The guy kept blaming his accent when I would ask for clarification or challenge his claims. Yeah, I heard you fine the first time. Very poor attitude of the company if their frontline staff are behaving in such a manner. I will be definitely giving this product a miss, although I could afford to buy it.

Do not trust the other 5 star comments. Comments made from paid users in poor countries. I cant believe this kind of scam actually exist and are allowed in Australia.

I dare you to apply the peel and leave it longer on your face and you will notice the side effect. No skincare product in anyway should harm the skin. I'm not allergic to anything but after i apply this product on my face and wash it after it dry, i feel pain on some area like burnt where i apply and there are 'some white plastic' stuck to your face.

The sales process was pushy and they put a lot of pressure on me to buy the product. I was only 20 when I was persuaded into buying this product and after many objections from me the lady's persistence eventually led to me spending around $500 on products. I felt almost bullied into buying these products and had hardly bought anything for the expense. The sales lady kept offering me 'special discounts' making a big show of asking for permission from her manager to offer me such 'low prices' however after looking online I discovered I had paid a lot more than their online RRP.
Despite the horrible store experience I really enjoyed their products. The manuka honey peel and cleanser leave me feeling soft, smooth and fresh faced. It removes any dead skin nice and smoothly. Unfortunately due to the sales techniques I question the authenticity of the product.
I really hope they improve the in store experience for customers as that is the only reason I don't want to buy the products again and support the company.

Its has almost been 2 months since I started using the Manuka Honey Peel and I have had such a good experience going all the way back to when I first bought it. The staff were incredibly friendly to me and helped me find exactly what I wanted/needed, which was a good exfoliator. My skin has improved drastically since using. My skin looks smoother, brighter, younger and most importantly I FEEL BETTER about my skin. I love it

The first time I bought 3 sets of Indulgence pack was in Garden city. This time I was asked to give a feedback on the products when I purchased again the second time. This time, 5 Manuka honey peels along with a Luxury kit. The product is excellent. King gives me the best price as always! I know I am a difficult lady but he has so much patience for me. Thank you so much for the service and product! I love Origani! <3

There are 3 things I would like to point out:

1. The staff
A female staff was very pushy. Not to mention that she tricked us that the night cream was ‘free’ since we (my friend and I) are sixteen. We bought this Erda luxury kits that each costs around 420 AUD; this is including the ‘free’ night cream. However, when I came home and checked the price online, I saw that the Erda luxury kit costs 305 AUD and the night cream costs 160 AUD. If the night cream was ‘free’, we would not have paid 420 AUD each. It’s a marketing trick thing so for those who are UNDER 18, PLEASE DO NOT BELIEVE if they say that any of the product is free since you are ‘still young’- except if it’s a sample of course. I still regret the decision to take the free sample being handed out because it led to me wasting so much money that could’ve gone into my education instead.

2. The product
Honestly, this depends on the type of skin you have. Unfortunatley, the product doesn’t suit my friend at all. Mild rashes, itches- i’ve seen it all. She applied it exactly according to the direction given and yet, there were still unwanted side effects.

3. The refund
I visited the Origani website and it was stated that, to request for a refund, we needed to visit the retailer and speak directly to the staff. However, when we went and talked to the staff, he told us that he could not issue a refund and told us to contact the email info@gscosmetics.com.au. I have sent an e-mail to them last Sunday, 10 February 2019, but they have not gotten back to me yet. Honestly, I am starting to think that this is a scam and he had no intention to refund my purchase. Oh, and since we bought one each, she used mine instead of hers, so one of the box is still both unused and unopened. The more the reason to have our money back.

To sum it all up, please think twice before buying the product. Is it worth the money? Is it necessary? Avoid buying a packet for your first time. Please do not make my mistake.

Sincerely,
A broke student

Really awesome product! Got the Manuka Honey as part of the indulgence collection I purchased at Canberra Centre. Love the products, the manuka honey gives me a great feeling of freshness, I have always suffered from redness on my face and can really see how the product is helping to lighten up my skin tone.
The service at Canberra centre was great and they educated me about all the benefits of Manuka honey which was brilliant. thanks to the wonderful team for introducing me to this wonder :-)

To those who have sensitive skin (like me) and it gets irritated very easily, Manuka Honey Peel is a good product for you. It doesn't dry up your face after multiple uses. It moisturizes your face and keeps it looking healthy and clean. I personally was recommended this product because of my acne scars and now I can say It really helped my skin erase the acne scars and also brightens my skin tones and makes it look and feel so smooth. I used it anywhere from 3-4 times per week; It is a great product and I'm really happy I found something that works for me. HIGHLY RECOMMEND. Its the perfect exfoliating mask I have ever used.

I accepted the free hand lotion sample and was encouraged into the shop with the mention of further samples. I’m always open to looking at new products. The peel was demonstrated on the back of my hand then moisturiser applied. I sat through the sales pitch, politely declined to purchase product and left. About 10 minutes later the skin on my hand started to burn and sting where the peel had been applied. I immediately rinsed my hand with fresh water and washed my hands asap. Be careful.

Me and my husband was invited inside their store by one of their sales rep by offering a hand cream sample. I read one of the reviews by other people experiencing the same thing. Once inside the store this lady shows me a demo of the product on my hand. I liked the feeling but when she told the price I instantly knew it was not worth the price. So i said I don't want it. Thats when she becomes pushy. She's asking my husband to try it too. Saying it's unisex. Claiming she sees a difference on his skin. And to make it worse she wants me to try it on my face. I refused because I have extremely sensitive skin which easily gets irritated so much that i only use purely organic products from Lush cosmetics only. But shes still persistent says it's all organic and won't irritate. So i let her do it. And guess what! It does irritate my skin. It was an overall a very bad experience. If you want to save your time and money do not get lured in by their sales staff!

I've been dealing with acne for over 10+ years + oily skin. So you can imagine the acne scars/hyperpigmentation my skin has. I've used TONS of facial scrubs/masks that claim that it brightens your skin so believe me when I tell you this is the BEST and worth-your-money exfoliating mask I've ever used. My acne scars lighten almost immediately after use. My skin is seriously so smooth (Before I had to exfoliate almost every night or else my foundation does not go on smoothly) after just one use. The next morning, my skin looks so good! Acne scars are less red and my face is so smooth. I always use less foundation the next morning too. Love love love it.

I really wish I would have had the Manuka Honey Peel this years ago as it would have saved me so much money, time, stress and tears. This is the exfoliator my skin has desperately needed. Removing all my dead skin, makeup and dirt allowing new skin to appear. My skin feels great and the results speak for themselves.

I had a very positive experience with the team in the Melbourne CBD. I purchased products and my skin reacted to them. The staff happily gave me a full refund. I have listened to the team in the Melbourne CBD store talk to many customers and they are thoughtful, courteous and not pushy. They stated that they would hate to think that I had paid money for a product I could not use. I thank them for their customer service and their understanding.

This is by far, the best face cleanser I have ever used. I have always had problems with my skin and when I started using the manuka honey, I rarely experience any breakouts. It has gotten to the point where I don't even wear face makeup anymore. Im so happy about this as before I had to use so much make up and now I don't even have to buy it anymore. I am in Singapore and have only had pleasant experiences with the staff here. If someone asks me to by something I don't want, I just say NO and its over. Highly Recommend the Manuka Honey!

Not to mention the pushy sales. Do not trust the other 5 star comments. I dare you to apply the peel and leave it longer on your face and you will notice the side effect. No skincare product in anyway should harm the skin. I'm not allergic to anything but after i apply this product on my face and wash it after it dry, i feel pain on some area like burnt where i apply and there are 'some white plastic' stuck to your face. I'm from Malaysia and i cant believe this kind of scam actually exist and are allowed in Australia.

Terrible. This was forced on me by pushy sales people
Stuck on my face and left bits I couldn’t get off for days
Stung to remove
Total waste of money
