10 Reasons Not to Buy the Nu Skin Galvanic Spa ...

Some things are just too good to be true, right? So when Nu Skin brought out an amazing home spa system, I was sceptical about how it would work. Nevertheless, I checked out a few of the demonstrations near me, and was impressed with what I saw. I did, however, find a few things to bear in mind when deciding whether to splash the cash...

1

Are You Fair Skinned?

Some people with fair skin have reported tightness, burning and swelling after use. While Nu Skin have defended themselves by saying those customers can’t have used it properly, it’s still a big concern for us fair skinned girls. If you do decide to buy one, make sure you have a good moisturizer to use afterwards.

2

Vials Are Pricey

The cost of the vials. While customers are trying to find cheaper alternatives, the vials are expensive, and you only get one or two uses out of each one. They cost $37 for a pack of 4, which is two weeks’ worth.

3

Are You Concerned about a Close up?

Some people have reported that while further away the effects look brilliant, close up they have noticed the formation of tiny lines. While this doesn’t bother most people, and seems to be uncommon, it is worth considering!

4

What Happens if You Stop...

Once you stop using the system, you will return to normal, and this can leave you looking like you’ve aged a few years in just a night.

UPD:

The sensation of appearing suddenly aged is due to the temporary nature of the device's effects. The Nu Skin Galvanic Spa system tends to plump and smooth the skin with its treatments, giving a more youthful appearance. When usage ceases, the benefits dissipate as the skin returns to its previous state. As a result, fine lines and wrinkles may re-emerge more noticeably, and any elasticity gained can quickly diminish. It's like walking out of the haze of a beauty mirage, only to face the harsh light of day—your skin’s reality without the spa's helping hand.

5

Oh, the Pressure!

The demonstrations are often given by those involved with the pyramid scheme of selling the product. They will often only do half of your face, to "let you compare the difference." Problem is, if there is a difference, you feel under pressure to buy the product so you don’t look odd.

Famous Quotes

One who gains strength by overcoming obstacles possesses the only strength which can overcome adversity.

The Droop Effect...

Some people have experienced amazing results, but after an hour the treated side of the face has "drooped." Nu Skin has not responded to these claims, but it seems to be happening to a random selection of people.

7

What's in the Gel?

There has been some scrutiny of the contents of the gels. One of the listed ingredients is a large amount of parabens, which have been linked to cancer.

UPD:

Parabens are commonly used preservatives in cosmetics and personal care products, but they can mimic estrogen and potentially disrupt the endocrine system. Although the research is not conclusive, there's enough concern that people are looking for paraben-free options. The presence of these chemicals in the spa gels raises red flags for many consumers, especially those dedicated to a more natural beauty regimen. It's crucial to be informed about what you're putting on your skin, which is, after all, the body's largest organ.

8

More about the Gel...

Using cheaper gels can "clog" the machine, which means that it needs repairing. This pretty much forces you into buying Nu Skin’s own, more expensive, gel ranges.

UPD:

Opting for generic or alternative brands might seem like a smart way to save a few dollars, but in reality, this approach can backfire. The Nu Skin Galvanic Spa is calibrated to work with its specific product line. When you venture outside of this, you risk inefficiency at best and potential damage at worst. This restriction on product choice not only hampers flexibility but also turns what seemed like a one-time investment into a continuous, expensive commitment to Nu Skin's consumables. Always consider the long-term costs associated with these proprietary systems before being dazzled by the allure of initial results.

9

Can You Get the Guarantee?

People have experienced problems with the money back guarantee. This doesn’t appear to be the norm, but is worth bearing in mind, in case you don’t see any results either.

UPD:

When considering the investment in a product like the Nu Skin Galvanic Spa, the peace of mind offered by a money-back guarantee is significant. However, customers have reported hurdles when attempting to utilize this benefit. Often, the return process involves stringent conditions and timeframes, which can be overlooked at the point of purchase. It's crucial to meticulously review the guarantee terms and comprehend the return protocol thoroughly to avoid any unwelcome surprises should you decide the product doesn't meet your expectations.

Ouch!

The price varies dramatically, but is very high. New systems don’t lower the price of the old ones by much, and each new line of gels seems to cost more and more.

Obviously, how important any of these points are is down to personal choice. After all, who can put a price on looking good? Make sure you make an informed choice, and good luck with getting totally gorgeous skin! Have you got any complaints about the Spa System, or any similar products? Please let me know!
