High school acquaintance adds me to her LipSense Facebook page, and this is my post on her wall before I blocked her. How did I do? I posted the below to her page's wall, and then messaged her with it in case it didn't post. It seems like she might have just launched her "business," so I wanted to get in early. I'm a bit sad because she's a very intelligent person and wasn't someone I'd expect to be roped into this kind of thing, isn't a housewife -- in fact she's a self-earning musician who should know better what it means to run a business. My post: I advise you as one intelligent person to another not to get roped into a money-losing MLM if you can avoid it. Take an example from the people desperate to get out of LulaRoe right now, a company with a similar business structure to LipSense. Also, you might want to check out Elle Beau's first-hand experience with Younique, which has an indistinguishable model from LipSense: https://ellebeaublog.com/poonique/ Also note that though you were instructed by your upline(s) to add your FB friends to a page for your "business," it is generally not cool to add a bunch of people to a page marketing some other company's stuff. It's treating friends and family like cash cows. MLMs center their business model on monetizing personal relationships and, whatever your morals might me, I hope you agree that treating friends and family like walking business opportunities is wrong and will likely put a strain on your relationships. I hope you are able to get out of this scam before losing too much money. 95% of consultants drop out of MLMs after 10 years while only 64% of legitimate small businesses fail in the same time period: https://www.thebalance.com/the-likelihood-of-mlm-success-1794500 99% of people lose money in an MLM: http://www.pinktruth.com/mary-kay-facts/myth-of-mlm-income-opportunity-99-lose-money-in-mlm/ John Oliver's exposé on MLMs is also very eye-opening: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s6MwGeOm8iI Get out whi
