Skin Whitening vs Skin Lightening

*Not a paid post. This is an honest, first-hand review of G-Cell and Omega King*

I just want to share a very surprising discovery about the difference between A) Skin Whitening and B) Skin Brightening.
We often see the claim "brighten skin tone" instead of "whiten skin" in South Korea; indeed, Etude, Missa, Sulwhasoo, and other high-end cosmetics use the former label.

I do not encourage the use of glutathione because of the unnatural effects it has on people who take them. My colleague, for one, looks as if she has been painted white. It looks so unnatural and 'un-belonging' to her characteristic.

Skin whitening, in my opinion, is less desirable than just having to regain one's real complexion before sun exposure, aging, and other factors that make the skin dull. The question is: How do we naturally brighten our skin to what it once was?

Internal Supplementation.

I have been using G-health products for three months and I have noticed a very significant change.
Absolutely, I'm a no glutathione and serum/lotion guy simply because I thrive outdoors and my skin is already light; I am not desirous to be pale. A clean, healthy, glowing skin would do.

Despite having less melanin and going out often without sunblock, I was able to retain (as they describe it) my petal-textured and even skin--the one I was clothed with before I turned 20s. I would have to thank the only two products that helped turned back the clock. One word for their effects: rejuvenation.

Not only did Ghealth products help my skin become brighter--not whiter--they also kept acne at bay. Here's the before and after photo with a two-month interval.

Why do an MLM (network marketing company) shift?

Yet another MLM?

I don't think so. I have attended 4 MLM orientations, which I wouldn't name, and I found their marketing plans unsustainable and difficult in the long term.
You might be earning now. But it's because your spending is bigger than your paycheck!

This took me a year to decide, and I can guaranete you this is not just another network marketing scheme.

People who don't change decisions are people who don't think.

The question is: Why would you want to become a member in another MLM?

1. Your life has become totally MLMed. You train leaders and you equip them for reqruitment. Most of your time has been eaten by your MLM and its promise for luxury cars, mansions, and huge earthly incentives. 

2. Binary and flushouts - You know you won't earn if left and right leaders do not match.

3. Demotion.

4. Quotas and maintenance.

5. Pressure to recruit people. You see, it's more of 'human trafficking' than product marketing.

6. Huge cashouts. It's difficult to recruit if you're asking for 20k or 12,888 or even 7k in exchange for a bundle of goods.

7. Hidden and undisclosed demands on you--purchase this and that otherwise...; do this and that otherwise...; and the list goes on. Dishonest invitations: "Looking for data encoder", "Do you have time, I like to introduce something"--why not tell it outright?   These MLMs fool people to get into their lair and sweet talk them while being surrounded by dozens of members. Ugh.

In G-health we mean business. Honest, profitable, effective distribution business. I am offering you a way to engage in network marketing again without these seven stressful strategies of your old MLM. Why G-Health?

1. Absolutely no demotion. A product has an equivalent point value. Point values accumulate when you buy products. The higher the PV, the more rebates/commissions you get. Point values do not expire. They just add up. You WILL ENJOY up to 35% rebates, no doubt.

2. Absoultely no quotas. Market and sell on your own pace. There's no pressure. 

3. No hidden agenda. Purchase G-Cell Stem Cell Mobilizer (P1800, 30 caps) or Omega King (Omega 3,5,6,7,9; P1900, 90 caps) and you AUTOMATICALLY become a distributor.

4. No huge cash outs; no risk involved. Shell out P1,800 and you can have your own business.

5. G-health needs pioneers. It is established for more than a decade in 10 Asian countries (Singapore, Malaysia, etc.) but G-health is new in the Philippines. Be a GRAND UPLINE!

6. G-health has over 300 products that are manufactured IN and TO NEW ZEALAND standards. FDI approved in 11 countries.

7. It's easier to sell products with a P1,800 price tag. We do orientations in restaurants and we get instant pay-ins all the time. Your effort does not go to waste.

Is there any reason why you should not join G-health? I can't think of any. Let me know if you have questions or if you're interested in becoming a G-health distributor. 

Health and wealth do not meet as often as they do in G-health.

Are Multilevel Marketing Companies (MLMs) Scam

Short answer: No. They are legitimate models of earning.

However,

Not everyone can profit from MLMs. Studies show that only the top-level marketers (at most top 5%) receives the material promises that MLMs show upon presentation of their company and products.

A person who is looking for an MLM company has to be wary about hidden pressures, cash-outs, and maintenance fees. For instance, one has to cash out 12,999 in one MLM company in the Philippines, in exchange for a bundle of products that one has to be able to sell in order to get back one's investment. This strategy creates a definite captured market, so to speak, and keeps the company afloat. But one has to look at the amount of initial cash outflow versus the rate of inflow. If one wants to move up the ladder of distributorship (which means higher rebates from products purchased), one has to buy more. And more. And more.

Moreover, most MLMs become a way of life much like religion is. One has to build members in order to recruit more people. Recruitment is most observable in binary MLMs where one has to maintain a "left" and a "right" marketer. In other words, one has to have two people working and meeting quotas, hence, a pair. Those two persons would also have to recruit a few more. And if those recruited do not meet quotas, then there's no pairing.

The moral is, if one stops building leaders or "left" and "right" marketers, one would not earn unless left and right matches/reaches the quota. Even if "left" reaches a million dollar sales, if it does not pair with the "right", then basically earning amounts to zero.

These things I have learned from friends who had bad experiences with MLMs; they were pressured to:
1. pay huge distributor fees and maintenance purchases,
2. invest time and effort training "left" and "right" marketers
3. meet quotas 
4 recruit people

The next question would be: Are there other MLMs out there where these four things are not part of the core marketing strategy?

Tupperware, Avon, Sophie, and Human Nature are but just a few MLMs that do not milk their members; the distribution of rewards come proportionately from a) recruitment, b) individual sales, c) group sales, and d) incentives and bonuses. If MLM X has a resource of $100, $90 is channeled to recruitment, the other ways of earning are underused and underappreciated. Essentially, to me, MLM X is more of human trafficking, so to speak, rather than product marketing.

Another company, in addition to those legit already mentioned, which is based in New Zealand (production) and Malaysia (financial arm) is G-Health. The only thing that one needs to do in order to become a member is to purchase a product at distributor's price and that's only P1,800.00 ($42.00). There is no quota that one has to reach because there is no status demotion. There are only incentives.

Every product has an equivalent point value. For instance, our flagship product G-Cell (stem cell repair and revitalization) has 144 point value. In order to get 25% of sales rebates, one has to accumulate 2051 points. These will just accumulate overtime; they don't expire. Now, if one has 25 members in your team and each one purchases G-Cell, you're already assured of a 25% rebate in all purchased items. That's a hefty sum of money already. And this is just one way of earning in Ghealth. We have 9 more ways.

One thing is clear as of the moment: If one has P1,800.00, then one can be a distributor. If one just wants to consume Ghealth products and get them for a distributor's price, then that is fine. What is better is that one still has the option to resell whenever one so decides. Again, there is no pressure, quota, demotion, or huge cash-out.

Why not try Ghealth and prove that not all MLMs are scam-ish?
