MLM HORROR STORIES & EXPERIENCES #8 | #ANTIMLM

PATREON & MORE MERCH COMING !!! Which story stuck out to you?

One of my wedding guests did something like this. She posed in our beautifully decorated reception hall in front of the head table (when the bridal party wasn't sitting down) with 2 other guests and wrote this "inspriational" post about how they'd lost X amount of pounds between the 3 of them, how proud she was, and to message her if you wanted to start your journey, too. Seriously? You're using my wedding as a backdrop for your pyramid scheme??

That woman who got her eye scratched should’ve definitely sued that “make up artist” 🙄 Also, can you even just set up shop like that in a mall? How is that allowed.

why do people need "weight loss coffee"? isnt regular coffee already an appetite suppressant and natural laxative? its pretty much 0 calories too. why improve on perfection?

that poor girl who had eye damage - similar results to a dog bite to my eye... my heart. good people exist

Yassss, my favorite video of the week! Side note: as an optometrist, I’ve always been against fiber mascaras (because those little MFers can absolutely cause a corneal abrasion!), but to be fair, that won’t result in permanent vision loss, so this person’s need for glasses can’t be blamed on younique. Still sucks, though!

something else about the itworks giveaways- they make it seem like each distributor is hosting the giveaway on their own when really it’s a company wide giveaway. so you go in thinking your in a pool of a few people but really it’s thousands of people. scammy scam scammers.

One of my best friends (who I basically call my wife hahaha) has an ex who would tell her that she wasn't allowed to hang out with me because he felt like she was using me as an excuse to cheat on him. She never listened to him and told him "I've known her a lot longer than I've known you. If I want to hang out with her, I will because you can be replaced."

Great video Deanna! It's funny you bring up Rodan + Fields. I won't ever forget the time I tried to curate a skincare kit(not with R+F products. These were products I RESEARCHED for her skin type) for my sister's birthday. It had moisturizer, face sunscreen, cleanser, everything! When I gift her this kit I was so proud of, the first words out of her mouth were "Oh I just invested into this $100+ kit with Rodan + Fields." BITCH, I was so heated and annoyed after googling them and finding out they were an MLM. Looking back, I wish I took the gift back bc it had REALLY good and well-rated products in them. D:<

Okay but something about the eye story feels off. There’s no way Sephora would just hand over pallets and mascara to a random person and let them go at it out in the mall. All from a wink. Lol. The anti-MLM skeptic in me is going nawwwww. But good try!! 🤣

If someone ever starts their sentence to me with "hey girl" I'm running the hell away.

The Amway story got me. I lost my bff to amway/world wide group/Ltd. It's called something new every few years when they get sued😒 but it's really heartbreak when you can't get through to these people. Please keep doing these videos!

Damn!!! That's like me practicing brain surgery after taking an online course... that lady should sue

OMFG. That Younique story. No words.

So, last year, I got REALLY into Paparazzi jewelry. I bought into it being only $5. The lady I bought it from was the sweetest lady, and never pressured me to join or to buy a ton. I will say though, idk how many pieces I bought that came broke and I couldn't return it. Needless to say, I stopped buying it. A lot of the jewelry isn't that cute, I just liked a "good deal" and bought into the cheap price. I'm still friends with the lady I bought from and she is one of the few huns I like, but that's because she NEVER messaged me to join her team. I just wanted to post this to confirm the jewelry not being great, and to say some "huns' are likeable! Love your channel ❤❤

I can relate to the Amway story quite a bit. My husband and I were in Amway and part of Worldwide Dream Builders as well. My husband would be pressured by our upline to go out and “prospect” in the evenings (this is LONG before FB and IG). He worked physically hard 12-14 hours a day in his shop, then come home and have to shower and get dressed up to go to the mall, bookstore, gas station, or wherever to see if he could get ANYONE to show enough interest in his cryptic message about getting people set up for success in their “own business.” He hated doing this, but because he had the personality of always needing to be in someone’s favor, he would do it. I was at home with four kids being the supportive wife. And, yes, we wives were expected to play our roles as the “woman behind the man” at all times and in every aspect of the business and life. Being the daughter of a very strong New Yorker mamma, this did not resonate well with me. I hated it and myself for allowing myself to fall into this “role.” Very Stepford-wifish. More than FIVE LONG YEARS of this crap. So glad we finally got out, but not before losing tons of money, having to claim bankruptcy, almost losing out home, and nearly getting divorced. Scary organization (cult).

Was making breakfast for the kiddos when i got the notification for this.. Got my coffee, sewing myself a shirt, and i'm READY! Also.. you are right. The horror stories and fails will never stop.

My mom would’ve gotten my shoe superman-slapped across her forehead, if that would’ve happened at my wedding. No cap. Like... how dare you? That’s just unreal. Gross.

You have become my morning routine. While putting make up for work, I watch you. It's my thang now.... And another one! 👏💯😇

That petrol station comment "we go to a petrol station in like... Nothing" i just got a picture of two streakers covering their privates, with cash in their teeth running in and shouting "Doritos please and we'll be gone!!!" 😂 😂 😂
