I think it’s a shame customers are bashing Dimitri James
Really how sad is it as a human being to say not nice things about the appearance of a vendor. Skinn cosmetics has been delivering high quality products for years and all I see is people putting in their nasty opinions on Dimitri appearance. Did no one ever teach you if you have nothing nice to say say nothing! Personally I love Skinn cosmetics and appreciate all the hard work Dimitri James puts into his products!!

Love Dimitri. Following him since Evine. Not aware of what he may have done, I was not there, and frankly, it’s not obvious to me if he has. His products have been good for my very sensitive skin. Have tried other things and nearly always come back. (Thank you, Dimitri.)

Playing devil’s-advocate for a moment.
Yes, people should stop bashing Dimitri (and certain HSN beauty hosts) for their drastic change in appearance. The problem many customers have is the trust that’s lost when Dimitri, et al, deny having any form of plastic surgery done. It’s fine if they have, just be honest and don’t make false claims about the products making them look the way they do.
Personally, I have multiple issues with the Skinn line since my sensitive skin doesn’t like his products. Regardless, if I could use his products, I would stop simply because they’re not being transparent and honest about their change in appearance.

Here Here and well said!

There is nothing about his products that he doesn’t deliver- what he does with his face is his business and no it doesn’t equal that he is hypocritical or not delivering quality products and you all that are bashing him are kind of slanderous to his product line. Your sensitivity to something doesn’t equal his line isn’t quality and amazing….

You hit the nail on the head….just be honest!

I think it’s rude and shows that people think that they can write whatever they want about someone else because they’re hiding behind a mask here! This world is in bad shape I think because of this, people think that they can make nasty, crude, remarks. HSN should track them, and kick them off of here!!, If someone wants to change their appearance, then it’s their prerogative,,,,,And, if you don’t like it, then go off somewhere, and look in the mirror. I think that people who say negative stuff, are not happy, I pity them!

@ Sydney Mom: I agree with you 100%. The only issue is lack of CREDIBILITY of a vendor when they make us believe (in so many ways) that they look that fabulous just because of their products and not because of any surgical procedures. That is just blatantly not true and to some degree upsetting for me as the customer.
It would be so much more “human” for the vendors to make an endearingly honest comment on air, such as: “of course my products will not be able to replace any kind of more invasive/costly beauty treatment, but it will certainly compliment and improve the appearance of your skin”… something like that. Such a simple solution.
For example: Vendor Paul Woods of Bellezza makes these light-hearted and believable comments in such a charming way (regarding his ongoing Botox and a painful neck skin procedures). Once you have the courage as a vendor/sales person to really connect with your loyal customer base, then a lot of viewers will most likely stop commenting about it and move on.
Just a thought.

Dmitri James has always made the caveat re: not a replacement for surgical procedures and I have been watching for 10 years

Agreed!!!!

His products are excellent. He is a fantastic educator. I admire his refusal to bring over priced products that don’t deliver on their promise. His appearance is not an issue for me, he’s lost a lot of weight, and he has changed a lot in recent visits. But I adore his spirit and love his fashion sensibility.
-
Nicely stated, I agree. I have learned a lot from Dimitri & appreciate many of his comments about looking at the ingredients of a product.

I agree with you. There is no need to be unkind. Remember: Do unto others….I don’t know why some people find it necessary to criticize or make fun of someone else’s appearance. It’s unkind and it’s very immature.

I love Dimitri! I think he looks great and whatever he chooses to do with himself to be happy is fine. People need to quit being so mean about the hosts, vendors, and models. I guess the people doing it like making people feel bad about themselves. What purpose does that serve? Say no one tried to keep themselves up. They would complain about THAT too. They would be saying, “Look at them trying to sell make-up and clothes looking like a toothless, homeless person.”

I totally agree! And it’s not just Dimitri- so many cruel comments about hosts. No wonder the world is so upside down today. I also love Dimitri’s products and love his enthusiasm for what he does.
