It’s now 2011 but your price comparison was spot on. Today people are still comparing, and getting it wrong. The prices are on the whole cheaper but the real point is the products are THE BEST OF THE BEST, also healthy for your health and the environment.

archana, Loreal/Olay are mass market products and are competing with Amway’s BeautyCycle brand. Artistry competes in the “prestige” category.

Beauty Cycle Water Hydrate Replenish Cleanser £6.18/150ml
Olay Hydrating Cleanser £13.78/125ml
L’Oreal Paris Go 360 Clean, Deep Cream Cleanser £9.99/170ml

The Amway product is cheaper in each case I checked. Maybe it’s better to opt for Amway brands and save some money to give to charity?

Well I think you just compared from high products, but as you said
ARTISTRY essentials Hydrating Cleanser £11.30/135ml = £8.37/100ml
If you take Loreal/olay/bla-bla £3/200ml ….. just 135ml it will not last more than 3 weeks and how do you think we can spend 11 pounds only on cleanser.
Then i have to pay 10£ on toner , £10 on moisturiser which does not last for 3 weeks hmmmmmm products are good but cost is too high in artistry i used for 6 weeeks costed me £60 pounds(cleaser + toner +moisturiser ) its better to opt other brands and save some money give to charity….

Hi Paul, The Daily price in the US dropped dramatically a couple of years ago. I don't think it's dropped anywhere else. Here in Sweden SA8 is roughly the same price as your quoting, 23€ at IBO price. Body Series I've found difficult to price compare due to the concentration and lack of recommended per use information. It has seemed to be cost competitive as best I can tell. When I get the time I intend setting up amwaypricecomparisons.com so we can compare retail pricing with competitors and across markets. That should help Amway make better judgements, and if necessary put some pressure on them to fix it where it might need fixing!

Hi, im sure youre right, but i would like your opinion about amway spain, i think Artistry and loc are more or less in the market, but SA8 and BODY SERIES are more expensive than the leading brand (IBO price). And if you check Nutrilite prices, are in some cases 3 times the price in USA and with less nutritional values.
For example price IBO for SA8 powder 2,25kg is 22,63€ (i better get acount in UK and send it myself by mail to spain).
Nutrilite Daily 60 caps,recomended sale price is 27,66€ vs $11,30 90caps in USA. (and US has a higer vitamin dosage).
I could give you more details if needed.

Thanks

I see that you have done a great job at comparing prices. I have done some myself and have come up with the same conclusion. Phil needs to try the products for himself before speaking. We ABO’s need to have this information to help us to help our prospective customers and prospective ABOs to be successful in the business, believing in the products because they are indeed of a very high quality at a very good price.

Phil, Artistry's categorization as a "prestige brand", alongside the likes of Estee Lauder etc, is not something that Amway has done. It is an assessment by independent market research companies like Euromonitor International. The link you provided had reviews of 3 products. One was a core line Artistry product, and received a very positive review. One was a neutral review, and unfortunately demonstrated a lack of knowledge behind the science of the Time Defiance range. That's a marketing issue more than anything else. The third review was negative - and it would appear was a review Amway may ultimately have agreed with, since that product has since been completely revamped and relaunched at a lower price. As for "cherry picking", I simply picked some of the most popular products. I then showed the comparison for every product I picked. I didn't "cherry pick" anything. It appears you're in the UK? I'd note that Artistry's Creme Luxury product was nominated for a Beauty Award there the year it was released. Many other Amway brands have been winning awards around the world for years. Who exactly is cherrypicking reviews? Me, I buy Amway products because they're some of the best I've ever used. Some I don't buy because I don't think they're good value. If you don't like them, don't buy them, simple as that. And yes, Amway products like SA8 regularly have "sale" offers, either by the company, individual distributors, or both.
