I spent some time searching different internet sites for Facial Exercises and what people thought of them.
I think I see a pattern:
1. On Amazon, each facial exercise program has its own "groupies" writing great reviews about that program and trashing other programs. The funny thing is, this is done so blatantly (and very stupidly I might add) that anyone can see thru it. The five star reviews for these products are mostly done by "customers" who have never reviewed another product on Amazon. 99% of these "reviewers" who gave these programs great reviews had reviewed ONLY that program and nothing else.....is that just a coincidence? I do not think so.
2. Most of the "real" negative comments for ALMOST ALL of these facial exercise programs focused on how the exercises made certain areas look worse.
3. ALMOST ALL of the facial exercise programs were "discovered" by the founder "while researching" or "while trying out"
4. The founders of these facial exercise programs are not doctors, or exercise experts or even people who seem to have any knowledge about the anatomy of the face. They also don't seem to have any other experience with this type of thing (they just "discovered" the exercises")
Does this sound somewhat somewhat similar to the little internet ads that we are bombarded with these days, for instance "stay at home mom **discovers*** tooth whitening secret" or "grandma **discovers** miracle weight losss secret" and so on???
5. How do we know that the "discoverers" of the facial exercises had never had plastic surgery (or other work like fillers etc) done on their faces? After all, doctor-patient confidentiality would mean we would never know...
6. It almost looks like at least some of the products (especially the newer knock off ones) are the works of some "behind the scene" marketers who use younger looking older ladies (surgically enhanced or not) as the face behind these products
all it takes then is a media blitz...internet ads, fake TV appearances and some five star reviews to make the product sell like hot cakes!! |
