  • Here is part 4 of my videos on Bleame and my honest Bleame reviews. They just released their newest product, the Skin Sonic, on August 1, 2023, and I was able to take a look at the product page the very day it was released and found some more review manipulation. Specifically review hijacking and potentially re-writing actual user reviews.
    I now have 2 blog posts about Bleame with even more info in there:
    • My original blog post review of the crystal hair eraser and Bleame's business practices: thefitcookie.com/honest-cryst...
    • My new blog post with updates on review manipulation with Booty Boost Mask and Skin Sonic: thefitcookie.com/is-bleame-tr...

    Thank you for your thorough research. I wish I had come across this, instead of all the fakes, before purchasing.

    This video was incredibly informative and helpful - thank you. I did order the skin sonic recently and it's too late to cancel, but I'm just hoping they honor returns if the skin sonic isn't good

      Thank you for your kind words! Hopefully it actually works for you, it’s definitely looks like a safer option than their hair eraser 😬 I’d like to think they are getting rid of the crystal hair eraser and replacing it with the Skin Sonic because the other one has had so many complaints, but it’s frustrating they’re STILL using deceptive business practices.

      Hey, did you try the skin sonic yet? Did it work?

      @@anasablugh3593 so actually, I still haven't received it. When I reached out, they claim they instantly sold out and are awaiting a new batch to ship out. If I'm being honest, I kind of doubt it - they probably deceived people into thinking it was something you could buy now but it's likely a pre-order thing :/

    Crystal hair eraser does not work plus skin irritation. Contacted the company immediately and they do not want to issue a refund and allow me to return the product . Awful!!

      You're definitely not alone, quite a few people have been injured and can't get refunds!

    thank you, i was really warey of this product because of the constant "sales" and vague descriptions. no where on the page does it actually explain HOW it actually works, it only ever talks about the crystal hair eraser. good to know it's just as sketchy as it seems... so many red flags

      You're welcome! They have been using shady business practices for quite a while now unfortunately, and they advertise very heavily on social media. And they also regularly delete or hide any negative comments on social, too, so people can't see honest feedback on their channels (I cover that in my previous videos). Very deceptive.

    I unfortunately just place a recent order and even after placing an order, I was still skeptical, so I came across your channel and I wish I did before purchase. They didn't ship my order yet so I am going to see if I can cancel it and get my money back before they ship it.

    • @thefitcookie
      @thefitcookie  11 місяців тому +1

      Hopefully you can get it canceled and get a refund! I think they have something in their policy for canceling orders that haven't been received (unless they changed their refund policy again).

      @@thefitcookie I emailed them, and they did indeed cancel my order and gave me a full refund. And PayPal confirmed it for me. So glad I got lucky. It's all thanks to discovering your channel that I saved 64 dollars. I appreciate the hard exposed on these frauds.
