I was just scanned by them and have called my credit card company to contest this charge. I went to return my crappy stuff the next day and there was a big padlock on the door. Apparently they don’t pay the rent so they come for one day and are gone the next.
The credit card company says I will win
What a racket, “Botox in a bottle” I can tell you as someone who worked for a plastic surgeon for many years this is just average products with trained high pressure salespeople that work on commissions. The ingredients are cheap, the first ingredient is water then carbomer (a filler) and propylene glycol which is a solvent use in things like antifreeze.
Did you win? I just did the same thing yesterday and I am so upset with myself and want to bring the stuff back.
Thank you for letting people know! I spent $$ on these items and just like you, saw they did not work as promised. Of course they would not refund or return. I didn’t try the credit card company dispute charges like you did. i am very glad you were able to get your $$ back!!
Total scam. Bought the CbGardn gold eye cream in PA. Salesman on sidewalk encouraged me to come in for 5 minutes to try eye cream for my under eye puffiness and wrinkles. I’m 67 years old . Applied and did the quick dry fan and voila! Looked like it worked! Said it would last for 2 weeks! Said he would give it to me for half price as new customer. So I bought it for $400 which he said would last for 2 years! As the day went on I could feel the skin loosening. By night time and washing my face it was gone! Scamming the elderly. Feel very foolish. Not the type that has that kind of money or spends that kind of money! Shame on me. When paying I then saw the no return sign. Don’t waste your money on this. Will reach out to my credit card company but not expecting anything. When someone tries to get you in off the street should be a red flag right away. Don’t buy this product!
I did the same thing felt like a fool and the product did not even ave enough in it to use 5 times. total Scam and rip off
Not sure yet (2 weeks in) but seems like a marketing scam. Get you in the chair, put serum under your eye, fan it to speed drying process and voila, your wrinkles and puffiness are gone! But wait, as soon as it wears off or is washed off, wrinkles are back. It seems the drying process just tightens up the product pulling the skin taut and making the wrinkles seem to disappear. Feels similar to when you were in elementary school and spread Elmer’s glue on your hand. I’m trying to keep an open mind but am not expecting any drastic results in 2-3 months. We’ll see.
Well I was supposedly given a years worth of this product for free for buying the red light therapy wand.(got one month) I was promised several free items even refunds on my prior purchases and nothing. I must always remember if it sound too good to be true it is usually isn’t, Won’t recommend this product.
Same here bought the whole thing . It was 4200 fit everything that’s not what they said . I got my bill tried to stop the payment process return unopened product within24 hours and that wasn’t going to happen they were gone. Bait and switch is what that is any they are getting away with it. They were all middle eastern and had this whole thing planned. I was recovering from chemo at the time and he said it would help. This is a predatory practice.
Yes, I also purchased the Evolve Red light. Between that and the products, after spending a pretty good amount of $$, I would not recommend. Way too expensive and you get get better items at lower prices.
BUYER BE AWARE!!
You can decide.
1) Exceptionally expensive! Hundreds of $$.
2) Yes, the results look and feel amazing!! (For about 2 hours). The you are back to where you began.
3) After using numerous items sold at a mall ( using high pressure sales tactics), there are no
noticeable differences.
4) You can find good skin care at highly less expensive prices.
I just got scammed in Santa Fe for an amount I am too embarrassed to admit. So unlike me to fall for something like this! They are very good at breaking people down. I feel so traumatized by the whole experience…(Someone needs to take these businesses down. They are siphoning money away from legit businesses and the whole community.) Choosing 1 star but I would prefer a rating of negative value. I’d be willing to bet that some of the people giving high ratings are in on the scam!
Same thing happened to me in Santa Fe, today. Offered a sample of foot cream, asked if I was interested in reducing puffiness & lines around the eyes…… gel, fan blah, blah, blah. I kept saying I really have to go. Super high pressure sales. Knew better but bought into it. I also feel traumatized by the experience:(
This is a business that operates in the shadows — refusing to provide receipts, ignoring follow-ups, and taking advantage of confusion to drain accounts. I’ve been asking for answers since July 18, and all I’ve gotten is silence.
If you are considering doing business with them, please protect yourself — record everything, don’t hand over your device, and be aware that once they charge you, you may never get clarity or your money back.
I bought this product and have not used it because i decided it was too costly. I am embarrassed to say bu i know i got scammed. So it has not been one month yet, just got back from vacation and I called the salesperson that coerced me into buying this product. . she said that it cannot be returned because it was a medical product. i call that BS. i am of age now and i should have known better but gave in and purchased the products. What can I do? is there somewhere i can report this company? please advise
Well…don’t I feel silly. I bought $500 worth of the stuff from Bee Co. I’m just going to smile and hit my forehead every time I use. I even said to them as I had the fan held to my eyeball. Kids this feels like glue stretching my skin. They gave me the “blah blah blah story” And I BOUGHT IT knowing better deep in my soul.
ps…girls always always listen to your gut
I bought the items from a mall store in Orange County CA and then I found out I was ripped off by the commission-based seller and wanted to return the items, but they said they don’t give refunds, they can only return the items for store credit. DON NOT STEP FOOT IN THESE CBGARDN STORES, THEY WII RIP YOU OFF BIG SCAMP OUTLET.
hmmmm… months ago & you have not updated your review as aforementioned!?
My mom and I had a very aggressive experience and every time we asked to leave we were denied. They complimented us and then pulled us in. I had work to go to out of the town we were in and I was 30 minutes late because the lady wouldn’t take no for an answer. it was so sketchy and forceful, there was a guy and girl sitting and watching us and it was very uncomfortable.
I bought it in port on a cruise. I had been using Plexiderm for under eye bags and was happy with it. The consultant said CB Satin costs the same but last three days! BULL! So paid $200 for this stuff. Consultant said it would last 18 months. Only lasted five months! I could’ve bought a lot of Plexaderm for that much. I only used it about once a week so what a screw!
High pressure sales. I don’t see the results claimed. No paperwork to backup a warranty – just receipts. You can get better results for less money using other products. Even the Dollar Tree retinol for $1.25 a package of ten applications works better. Buy a red light therapy device online for far less – one of the recommended versions is $114.
Got stopped by a cute, charming salesman at a mall kiosk selling the CbGardn products. I reluctantly let him apply the anti-wrinkle eye cream drying it with the little fan. I could see a difference, but I felt like I couldn’t close my eyes, it also felt it was burning my skin. He applied a serum which helped. He showed me the price on the box for $1500 but said he would give me a deal for $199. Like someone said you feel like you’re being held hostage they won’t let you go. I came to my senses finally got away and didn’t buy anything. I thought I’d check them out on Google and saw the numerous terrible reviews; also similar products are $44 on Amazon. Glad I didn’t fall for it.
I first heard about CBGardn from my sister, who’s always testing out new skincare brands. She told me their products are super hydrating and work wonders on dry skin, so I decided to try their moisturizer. I have to say, I’m really happy with it! My skin feels soft and nourished, and I don’t get that tight, dry feeling I used to have in the mornings. The consistency is rich but not greasy, and a little goes a long way. The packaging is also really nice—it definitely has that high-end feel. My sister was right about this one
The young man put the serum under my eyes,when I woke up the next morning my eyes were worse than it was when he put it on. The puffines was crazy,it took two days to disappear.
