Limelight By Alcone

I signed up to sell Limelight by Alcone. I was successful making sells and gaining customers.

Just 30 days into signing up the backorders started. My customers and myself had to wait months to get the products. I waited 3 months to get a black eyeliner pen. Customer service was rude and they never followed through with fixing any wrongs.

Then all the foundations were on backorder. Instead of fixing these issues they continued to launch new products and change packaging. Then the freeze for any new Guides because they where sinking fast. The founders kept posting videos on how out of control they knew all these issues with back orders and customer service were.

It was too late in my opinion. The products were good. A little pricy for my taste, but you can't sell something that isn't available to buy. My customers lost faith in the company.

I have 2 former customers to this day that never received items nor did they ever get a refund from the company. Then 3 months after I left my Enroller began bullying me for openly telling other people about my experience. No matter how good their products were the company is a complete disaster. The women that are actually making a decent income bully and lie to their teams to keep their numbers up.

Limelight has scammed so much money from reps and customers by not sending anything after making a purchase they should be investigated and shut down entirely! Limelight was the worst and most corrupt Direct Sales Company I have ever worked for.

Stay clear of this company at all costs. Hopefully they will be forced to stop doing direct sales.

I like your products and became a consultant for the discount, I do not wish to sell the product. the monthly fee ends up making my makeup even more expensive.

id like to stop being a consultant yet can find no info on how to stop!

please help me! I don't want to have to stop my credit card account just to get out!

So, first of all I am not a promoter, nor do I sell Limelife. I have tried a wide range of Limelife products. I will list each with my review. Keep in mind I am mid 30's with oily acne prone skin with enlarged pores & some fine lines & wrinkles.

First lets start with makeup.

Botanical Foundation: I absolutely hated the foundation. Its thick, cakey, & feeks tacky even after setting it with powder & spray. It did not look good on my skin & basically melted off within a couple of hours. I would not recommend.

Perfect Eyeliner: if you like a really sharp eyeliner pen, you may like this eyeliner. I however felt the tip was too fine for my preference & didnt like this product. Would not Recommend.

Mascara: This is a buildable fiber mascara. I didn't notice much flaking, but you really have to build for it to look decent. (I'm talking like 5 coats.) Not for me. Would Not Reccomend.

Perfect lipstick: I purchased a sheer Lipstick. It feels amazing on my lips, but does have to be reapplied like chapstick. Doesn't last long but if you don't mind reapplying its great. A little pricey for the quality. I personally wouldn't repurchase.

Lipgloss: I do love my limelife lipgloss. I have to reapply often but thats with any gloss. The color I purchased is amazing. It smells great and feels good on. Not too tacky. I would recommend.

Matte Setting Spray: idk if this should be listed under makeup or skin care but I really like this setting spray. The smell is not pleasant AT ALL, but luckily it doesnt linger long and it really sets my makeup so well. Without it, my makeup partially melts off by mid day, with this setting spray my makeup lasts all day. Its so worth dealing with the terrible scent. Would recommend

Now, lets get to the good stuff. Skincare.

Dream Clean Face Cleanser: I LOVE this cleanser. It really removes my makeup well. I have purchased this product 3x & will continue to use this. Its an all around great cleanser. Love, Love, Love my Dream Clean. Would reccomend!

Masque of Zen: I like this mask. It feels very refreshing on my skin. I use this 2-3x/week. It does help, but from my experience does not eliminate acne. It removes oil and leaves my skin feeling refreshed. I have hormonal acne so its hard to tackle. This may work better for eliminating acne on ppl that only get occassional breakouts. Would Reccomend!

Skin Polish: I use this mask maybe once a week on a night im not using mask of Zen. It is hydrating & smells amazing. It exfoliates & leaves my skin feeling soft & smooth. I do like this mask & I would reccomend.

Calm Balm Moisturizer: I love this moisturizer. I actually apply it before applying my foundation. It absorbs quickly into the skin. Doesnt leave my skin looking shiny or oily. This is the only mousturizer I have ever found that I can honestly say I Love. I have purchased this more than once & I would recommend.

Basically I havent tried any limelife makeup I feel is worth the price other than the lip gloss & setting spray, but the skin care is amazing & I will continue to purchase it.

Yesterday our CEO told us about the details of our global expansion w/the help of the partnership of L'Occitane (they own 60% now). As it was building excitement about hearing where we were going & when, sounded great until they told us that there will 2 launches per country & that executives only (Lead Director & above), would be allowed to recruit for the 1st launches, & for the 2nd launch Star Beauty Guides, Founding Beauty Guides, or anyone who has $5000 in sales per month could recruit globally.

Basically, they screwed over us lower levels who have been working hard with our teams with the hopes of reaching the executive ranks when we went globally! I can tell you I know for a fact not many Beauty Guides with LimeLife (yes new name) sell over $5000! Not even the executives, as most of them sell the minimum ($600 barely) & just crack the whip at their teams to work harder! Most of us had potential recruits in other countries waiting to join LimeLight, & now unless we promote quickly (only within the US) do we have a shot at recruiting globally.

All of the hard work I did, is going to GIVEN to someone in the executive ranks! "Oh, here's some potentials that I can't recruit, guess there yours now!" Same with sales, you have to be a "good samaritan" & give the international sale to an executive without receiving any credit whatsoever! You also need to pass an international test too, in order to be a global recruiter, which I know a certain Platinum level probably had a say in that one! You also have to pay for your international website/greenroom, $19 on top of the $9.95 for the US website/greenroom + your annual fee of $75!

I knew LimeLife was different than other direct sales companies but is the goal to just make the executive teams richer than they already are & everyone else broke especially after the purchase of the kit ($169 + all the website/annual fees)? I think you know the answer to that one!

So if you're planning to join LimeLife, unless you're already in direct sales & leaving another company with a huge team to get you to the executive ranks fast, or you're a top sales &/or top recruiter, or someone who is a sales person who can sell over $5000 a month, or independently weathy with nothing better to do with your time or your money, DON'T BOTHER JOINING! Unless you don't care about recruiting globally & making "some REAL money" instead of the peanuts you'll ACTUALLY make!

Hey, everyone, this company sucks! They have fees every month that no one will advise you of and a huge fee to "renew" your subscription.

I have been trying to cancel my subscription for several months, I have only been able to contact them once via phone and when i did finally talk to an actual person she belittled me and said there was nothing she could do for me besides send me an email for cancelation but I don't have that email anymore so I am unable to access it.

Overall this has been the worst experience of my life and advice everyone NEVER to get involved with this company. They have very poor customer service.
