How to Avoid Being Scammed by the Online Beauty Industry

By Samara Bowling


As a woman I know that it is hard to accept yourself and your body if you suffer from an significant flaw. This flaw could be small breast from pregnancy, weight loss, or that you've always had small breast. Maybe you suffer from stretch marks or you're a tad bit over weight. Whatever that flaw may be it bothers you to the core. Your husband or boyfriend may have reassured you about it, but in your mind you wish, dream, and fantasize about changing whatever that flaw is about yourself.

In the 21st century women can now take charge over their appearances and body with plastic surgery, but this can be quite expensive so you may opt for alternatives first. Instead of breast implants you try breast creams and pills, and instead of microdermabrasion or a tummy tuck you try weight loss pills and stretch mark creams.

Back in 2005 I was searching for an alternative solution to enhance my bust line when I came across several websites selling breast enhancement pills that were natural and guaranteed to work. The first type of pills I tried were about $60 and these pills did nothing for me. I tried others that claimed to be better, but after dishing out well over $1000 in my hard earned money to these scammers I realized that the pills will never work. These scam sites even collaborated sites advertising the best breast pill to use while keeping the price within a certain range so women that were reluctant to spend too much money would still try the pills. I've even saw sites that sold the same exact product with the same exact testimonials posing as a different site! This was the same for the stretch mark creams as well. I was mislead by the false testimonials and pictures that these sites presented.

After learning my lesson I now search for reviews from REAL women before purchasing a cosmetic product. Not affiliated sites which are paid to make the product seem great and in my searches it has been extremely difficult to find reviews on products. Either I have to dig to find or them I don't find any at all. In 2008 I decided it was time for a change. It is time for women to stop getting scammed into purchasing products that don't work. We take pride in our appearances and it's time to stop letting these scam businesses take advantage of that.

If you don't want to waste money only to be scammed by products that don't work always research the product before purchasing it to avoid disappointments. When researching the product do not rely on sites that advertise the top three products to treat the specific problem or the testimonials on the site. Try searching for reviews on the particular product on forums related to beauty and cosmetic review sites such as http://osodivine.com/
