I must say, kudos to HSN for one thing. I got a notice about this post, that there was a post regarding negative comments about the quality. Surprised. HAPPILY. I want to know when things are not as good as they used to be. Do many people just and move on from shopping here. That’s what I’ve done for the most part, after being reamed for znot being 100 positive about the new hosts, which affects MY patronage. I hadn’t experienced the horrible things this poster has, but i see them coming. Qurate is not doing well, so they are cutting costs by cheaper stuff. It’s not working. Good luck, Qurate. You RUINED two decent shopping channels.

Cannot believe that Kimberly needed any help from MaryBeth Roe. That must’ve been the easiest $$$ MBR made in awhile. Kimberly has more experience as a host than ALL of the newer hosts put together. What a joke. If MBR had trained Emily, Jasmine, and any other of the new hosts (other than Rebekah, who I believe was mentored by Lou Caputo for her Origami days), HSN needs to get their money back from her. She used to be really good but she was calling it in at the end and the training has been how to overuse three phrases ad nauseam and laugh at everything a vendor says. SMH.
Welcome back Kimberly. Good to see a host with some experience come back. Hopefully they don’t have you do that “late night toy box” thing that Evine/ShopHQ had you do.

Colleen is NOT a designer. She takes her closet and regurgitates it into her ripoff line. Basically she is stealing ideas from her overpriced “designers” that she buys(?) for her own closet. Not one original idea at all. I am assuming her line is coming directly from Shein these days. You can tell I’m not a fan. I caught three seconds as I was changing channels and heard her donkey laugh. Suzanne Somers called it that back in the day that Colleen was an actual host. That and her snort. The snorting would send Suzanne into peals of laughter.
Either be a host or be a vendor. Pick a lane. Don’t take a host’s job from them when you want ALL the commissions or whatever they call it when the host gets credit for the sale. Colleen is double-dipping. Can’t say I blame her. It’s up to Qurate to stop her from doing that.

@ennui nice to know you haven’t changed. Still spewing the mean girl comments.
I can only imagine what you looked like 40 years ago. The 80s were big hair, don’t care. Bobbi was a pro at her sales job then, and she grew to be the most respected shopping network host across the board.
It’s a safe bet that even the biggest celebrities of every genre in the world know who Bobbi Ray Carter is. That’s pretty amazing in itself and no matter how much snark people spew about her, there should be some serious respect given to her for being the best in the field for 43 years.

I don’t think Khold is their high end line. It’s supposedly the brainchild of Manuela’s son, but she basically steamrolled him and took over all the presentations. That said, he does not have the personality for sales on live TV. But that all comes with practice, and Manuela is not giving him the chance to learn how to present. That, and they put him with Chuck Clemency, who talks over everyone, including Manuela.
It’s not that great of a skin care line either.

Have any of you naysayers seen Dimitri’s hands? The difference between them is phenomenal. He always demos his products on one hand to show what using his products can do for your skin long term.
Do you honestly think that ONE PERSON selling products over the age of 30-35 hasn’t had work done? If they do, you say “can’t trust them, look at all the work they’ve had done”. If they don’t, then it’s “omg, have you seen their face? Their products must not work.” Skin care USUALLY doesn’t work on wrinkles and firming short term. It works on hydration, plumping, and skin TEXTURE first. Long term effects will work on firming and deep wrinkles, but not all will work because the next best thing comes along before we give the last new thing a chance.
Buy what you want, trust who you want. Just know you aren’t always trusting or buying from the right person for your skin. Watch them for awhile. If they change models often, ask yourself why.

“Pearl clutching” is “an exaggerated response, deliberately expressing more shock than appropriate, and possibly more than you really feel. So if someone says you’re clutching your pearls, they’re calling you a hypocrite—faking outrage about something that’s not so outrageous.” That’s one of the definitions I found when I googled to get you one. My INTENT was NOT to call you a hypocrite. Just that you were, in my opinion, expressing a level of “moral outrage” that didn’t really fit the intent of my post. 🤷♀️ And yes, Bill has a good amount of socials output.

The only NEW hosts who are any good at all are Rebekah Wood and Clarke Wolfe. Lesley Ann Machado isn’t new. She’s decent but still has some of the bad habits that got her let go years ago.

I stopped using foundation a bit ago. I now use the white stick from ELROEL. It changes to match the skintone when applied with the brush. You use very little, it’s great coverage, and it feels like moisturizer. I am 69.
-
She said the last time she was on that it was their last show and thanked everyone for their support through the years. Jamie is done for now.

@tillyboy I finally stopped trying to match my foundation and got the trending Korean foundation that goes on white and blends into a perfect match when you blend it with the brush, a beauty blender, or your hands. It really works and it’s perfect. Light like a tinted moisturizer but great coverage. If you can’t find your match, try that and quit looking. It’s pretty amazing.

I think her bout with Shingles probably pushed her plans out a bit.
Can you all cut back on the PERSONAL attacks? If she isn’t your favorite fine, but personal attacks on people aren’t doing any good and just makes y’all look like mean girls.
-
Why is she hard to look at Bewbee? Please don’t just post that without telling us all exactly WHY you think that.

He posted it on his public HSN and personal accounts on Facebook. You can pearl clutch all you want, but it’s here for those who care about him.

@ennui are you retired? If so, how long were you with the company?
I ask because no matter what, retiring entails a lot of planning – if you have certain things on your list and an illness or other circumstances mess up that timeline, you either extend it or change plans.
Bobbi is much more than her job. She is a very active lady and has another grandchild on the way. Commuting across states has to be hard for all the hosts that are still doing it (Nicole has documented her journey on her tiktok).
