My Wild Ride Testing MAV Brands Stuff
So, been hearing whispers about this MAV beauty thing popping up everywhere lately. Figured, what the heck, let’s see what the fuss is about. Went down the rabbit hole myself, bought a bunch, and damn, what a ride.
First step? Hunting down their actual site. Spent like half an hour searching “mav beauty official” cause their name seems super common. Kept landing on other junk. Finally stumbled upon it – looked slick enough, fancy photos, the whole deal. Felt kinda… influencer-y? But okay.
Placed my order for what felt like half the store:
- That “Miracle Skin Stuff” (everyone raves)
- The “Glow Potion” serum (looked shiny)
- Their “Lip Cloud” thing (colors looked cute)
Shipping took forever. Honestly forgot I ordered it by the time the box showed up looking beat up.
Opened it up – packaging was… okay. Not luxury, not trash. Middle of the road. Popped open the Miracle Skin Stuff. Smell hit me first – strong! Like flowers trying way too hard. Slapped it on. Felt thick. Real thick. Was hoping for magic overnight, woke up feeling a bit sticky. Not terrible, just… meh for the price.
Next, the Glow Potion Serum. Bottle looked cool, glass dropper stuff. Used it under my moisturizer morning and night. First day, felt fancy. By day three? Major oops. My face turned into an oil slick zone by lunchtime. Shiny city. Never had that happen before. Stopped using it quick.
Saving grace? The Lip Cloud. Color was actually pretty spot on, like it looked online. Went on smooth, felt light, lasted a decent while after coffee. Didn’t dry my lips out. Finally, one win.
Here’s the kicker though. Had a question about the serum causing my oil disaster. Tried finding contact info. A nightmare. Buried deep. Sent an email through their “contact us” form last week… crickets. Zero. Nada. Radio silence. Not a great look for “customer care.”
Watched their social stuff while waiting – tons of ads, flashy models, heavy filters. Felt less like real beauty, more like… manufactured hype? Just my two cents.
So, after all that? Final thoughts:
- The “Lip Cloud”: Actually legit. Might get another shade.
- The “Miracle Skin Stuff”: Overpriced moisturizer. Does the job, smells strong.
- Serum & Customer Service: Big thumbs down. Oil slick and ghosted.
Feels like they’re pushing hard on the brand image – fancy talk, sleek looks – but the actual experience? Messy shipping, a dud product turning me greasy, and zero help when I reached out. Got one decent product, one okay one, one failure. Not screaming “miracle” to me. Maybe they’re new and figuring stuff out? Or maybe just another cashgrab brand riding the hype train hard. Jury’s still kinda out for me, leaning more towards ‘meh’ after the serum disaster and getting ghosted. Be careful what you grab, folks.
