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 Spot something out of date?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.

Great designs and versatility of collections. Great customer service and fast shipping.

Beautiful boutique style jewelry, handbags and scarves. So many of their designs are versatile and can worn more than one way, one of my favorite things about their jewelry. Great company that gives back with special designed pieces that sponsor organizations like the Noreen Fraser Foundation for Women's Cancer Research and Every Mother Counts.
