I bought the Avinichi Youth Restoring Solution Serum on Main Street in historic Annapolis. They are “launching” a new facility. The “facility” is sparse in furniture, any retail stock, employees. Two employees were present: one was “hawking” possible “clients” from the street and the other was the sweet-speaking and high-pressure salesperson (very charming, attractive, skilled in sales).
I was offered a $1300 product for $299. And a promise of a free red-light or blue-light session at a later date. The serum did diminish the eye-puffiness within minute. An hour later, however, my eyes started burning and itching. I rinsed the product off. My eyes continued to burn and water even to the next day. My eye doctor recommended I not use the product (of course).
I returned to the store. No lights on. No one inside. No operating hours were posted. The salespeople never told me they were a “pop-up” shop and they have what appears to be a permanent sign above the door and swivel like seats one would find in a salon.
I contacted customer service — so far they told me that their policy is that they don’t accept returns; that they are not legally required to do so. I will update but I imagine the customer/client satisfaction concerns will compel them to do the right thing and stand behind their product and their actions.
I’m happy to update this evaluation pending their response.
I bought the Avinichi Youth Restoring Solution Serum. A few after thoughts: I bought this in W Palm Beach at a pop up store even though they are “based” out of NY. While the woman was pitching me the product she said that expensive products like La Mer costs hundreds of dollars and then she said “This product originally cost $1200 but it’s on sale for 400” just like La Mer haha. After she applied the serum my under eye puffiness disappeared within a few minutes! I was impressed! When I decided to buy the product she gave me an unopened serum which didn’t work half as well as the product she applied to my under eyes. When I asked about contact information, she gave me a post with her name on it and no contact info. All of these are supporting the fact that Avinichi is a scam!!! DO NOT buy from them.
The Youth Restoring Solution is a temporary fix. There are no long lasting effects; the sales pitch is very hard core and the quantity you receive for a high price is disappointing. The results may last 8 hours or so, but the sales pitch never mentions that the results do not last. Please be aware–before you know it, you could be pressured into spending thousands of dollars. Very discouraging to see this type of high pressure selling at resort localities where unknowing seniors shop. No matter what they say to you, you are not trading in Botox when you substitute with this product.
