isomers back on ShopNBC
I was curious if they did anything with ShopNBC/Evine Live/ShopHQ and was shocked to see they still had a website and Isomers has been presented there multiple times this week. Does that mean they were terminated at HSN? It is so confusing because most products are cheapest direct now, but I see some are cheaper on Evine. I do not understand why HSN is most expensive. I thought higher volume orders meant lower prices but maybe the line never gained traction at QVC.

Yes, I noticed that things are higher on HSN. I came over when SKINN Cosmetics moved here. But the prices keep going up.

At least pricing on Isomers did not go up as much as SKINN. I can’t believe people buy SKINN at the new HSN prices but I guess people think if they are overpaying for skincare they are getting something better. It is moves like this that are making home shopping die a quick death. HSN used to be a place to find things you did not find at other places at reasonable prices. Now it is where people shop who don’t know any better and then stop shopping when they look up alternatives and feel burned.
I still like Isomers a lot but am finding alternatives when my supplies run dry.

Going to guess that Isomers was able to get some sort of favorable deal to allow them on multiple home shopping or home shopping-like formats but as many have said it’s confusing to see the variances in prices. ShopHQ, HSN and ShopLC (Manuela’s product but using a different label) all were once competitors but now it seems they are all willing to take the sales they can get.
On the other hand, this is not totally out of the norm as Elizabeth Grant was sold simultaneously on ShopHQ, ShopLC and QVC in the past and I’m sure there are other examples, too.

I use a ton of Isomers products that I stocked up on when it was clear Evine was going to bleed out.
The new formulations appear to be serious downgrades. For example the multi molecular hyralonic serum that I have in my cabinet has twice as many ingredients as the one being sold on HSN. It is a big shame. Isomers used to be cutting edge and was worth paying a bit more than The Ordinary or Deceim but now Deceim has much better formulations than the revised Isomers ones. They also sell some Isomers products on ShopLC. ShopLC is the worst though. They will say the retail price on the serum is $450 and they will “discount” it to $45 which is about the retail price on their own website so no real discount. And HSN Is selling mostly 1oz bottles which makes no sense if the bottle is going in a shipping box. instead of pulled of a shelf and into a physical cart. The shipping cost probably accounts for more of the price than anything else. On homeshopping everything should be supersize otherwise you are definitely overpaying.If they were sold at any traditional retailer we would know what their actual values are. This feels like an unintentional mind game. You have no idea what something is actually worth because they are not in traditional retail. Try Deceim if you are looking for an alternative. They have very similar formulations to the original Isomers formulas. I AM NOT recommending against Isomers but do your homework. Many of their formulas are still great but there may be similar formulas from national brands out there at better prices. You can use AI to tell you what good subs are.
Being on so many home shopping retailers is so confusing. Still on Evine’s website at better prices. More products on HSN but at much higher prices. Even more products on their own website but pricing there is mixed.
Thank you for letting me know about the coupon. I may stock up there again because the prices on HSN are not worth it when I can buy traditional brands at similar or lower prices.
However I would still buy from Manuela every day of the week instead of aesthetician Dimitry. His formulas do not make sense. If you are in doubt ask AI. Seriously ask AI if this formula appears too good to be true and it will tell you objectively. It is clear he is a trained aesthetician that only learned how to perform facials rather than a scientist, chemist or doctor that understands biochemistry. He understands hype and marketing. And brands himself as the opposite to fool us. Manuela is honest. I do not agree with how Isomers is being priced but I do trust they know how skincare works.
Cristopher Banks was acquired by ShopHQ’s old parent company during the pandemic and the new parent company (the 5hour energy man) absorbed both ShopHQ and CB. They are probably using CB’s payment system because they probably ended their operations in Minnesota.

The shipping in SHQ is 9.99 unless you spend over 99. but this week for a few days they had free ship on all so I bought the Isomers enzyme peel, I use this under my eyes. I also had a 20% off coupon for signing up for emails. Has Christopher Banks bought SHQ, my receipt came from them.

Isomers will be on both Shop HQ and HSN. They have a great deal on ReDensify serum in huge size on Shop. It is confusing to all.
What does everyone think of Isomers??? I used it years ago w great results but it becane too costly so I switched. Thinking about returning but I need some honest reviews about the products.

Lindz was there an announcement that they would permanently be on both? I was not sure if they still had a contract with ShopNBC that they were obligated to see through or if they relaunched there.
