Four years ago, my life changed. I became the Brand Ambassador for StriVectin on QVC.
At that point, I had over 25 years of experience in the cosmetic world. I had worn many hats—from training, to marketing, to public relations for over 12 internationally sold brands—but I chose to partner with StriVectin because I experienced their results first hand. See, before I worked for StriVectin, my friends, family, and neighbors on the street all stopped to tell me that they saw a difference in my skin when I first started using StriVectin products (I was 46 at the time). Even my husband noticed! Well, with that I had to share my passion. My dream came true just a few days after New Year’s 2011.
My very first appearance on QVC was with Gabrielle Kerr at three in the morning. I first remember being amazed by how long the hallway was from the lobby of the building to the studio where everything is filmed. Once I entered the studio, I was amazed by how large it was and at how many cameras there were to navigate—I think I looked in the wrong camera most of the eight minutes I was first on air. I remember being very impressed by how professional and friendly everyone behind the scenes was to me and to all the other guests (yes, even at three in the morning everyone is friendly!). They really wanted each and every one of us to feel welcome, to feel a part of the family, and to reflect that “Quality, Value, Convenience” philosophy that makes QVC what it is to this day.
Then, in my eighth month on the job, I had the privilege to make history; I got to launch StriVectin’s TL Neck Cream in a Today’s Special Value® with Lisa Robertson. I was so proud that StriVectin had solved a problem to improve the appearance of skin. The QVC customer immediately took notice, then the country took notice, and then the world took notice. We received the CEW Award for Moisturizer Prestige in 2012 and learned that our TL Neck Cream also became a global phenomenon in the 50 countries where StriVectin is sold.
So, what does StriVectin do next? Oh, we’ve made TL Neck better (yup, we do that). So, after four years, I feel that same rush I felt on my first day on the job. And now (drum roll, please!), I'll be launching our NEW Advanced TL Neck Cream at 7am ET on October 11 on QVC. Now, don’t worry if you love the original: we just improved on perfection. Based on comparison testing, our New Advanced TL Neck Cream with new Gravitite-CF Complex reduces the appearance of neck wrinkles and décolletage crepiness, and improves that skin barrier function EVEN MORE!
I know you might be wondering why we took the top-selling neck cream and made it better. We didn't have to—but when you do business with QVC, that's the kind of quality and innovation you reflect. Happy four years, QVC and StriVectin. Thank you for all you exemplify and all you teach me, and thank you for improving my neck EVEN MORE!
XOXO,
