How to read this comparison
- Starter kit is the up-front purchase to begin selling. Some companies also charge an annual renewal or a website fee; check the company page.
- Personal commission is your cut of your own retail sales. Downline commission is what you earn on sales by people you recruit; a plan with no downline pay is single-level, one with overrides is multi-level.
- Sales to earn the kit back divides the minimum kit by the minimum commission. It is the retail volume you must sell before the kit has paid for itself, before any other costs.
- Most multi-level plans publish an income disclosure statement. Ask for it, and read it, before you sign. Typical participants earn far less than the top ranks.
- Figures are company-reported and can change. Spot something out of date? Tell us.

I have been using Pure Romance products since 2004. I have been in and out of the company but this last time I decided I am making it. I've been in almost 2 years now! I love the company's products and mission. I love the people and everything about it. If you love a product you can share with anyone. I believe it's very important to believe in what you do and have a passion for what you sell! I will make this my full time job in less than 5 years!
I’ve been apart of Mary Kay for 2.5 years ! I’m a Senior sales Director ☺️ However, the team commission statement on here is incorrect! We get 4-36% commission + our 50% on sales profit. Which would make us Number 1 for pay if all the rest of the companies are correct!
My mom was an AVON Lady when I was a kid, I'm an AVON Lady now raising MY kids! Grandmas recognize AVON because they have trusted in the products their entire lives. AVON has proven it's worth for nearly 150 years, and we don't rely on high prices to pretend we have quality products, we have generations of loyal customers and reps to prove we have quality products.
I love what I do! I love what I sell! I love meeting new people and I live to be the best customer service you have had work with you or assist you!
I have used Mary Kay products going on 6 years now and I LOVE them. I have tried a few other products but they DO NOT COMPARE to the quality of what Mary Kay products are. I finally joined the Mary Kay Business after 5 years of being a customer. Man, I wish I would of joined sooner. I have heard Mary Kay is expensive and to be honest they are not. I bought the Timewise Set and It has lasted me 7 months!!!! I have had people tell me that my skin looks great and even tone :). I believe Mary Kay is the BEST as far as the Products and the Business plan!
AVON!!!! Speaks for itself, just lookl how old the company is and the success they have. No one can grow to this size having poor quality. As far as Busy Beane I'm honest as the day is long, hard working, and always putting others first.
