I SELL 100% AUTHENTIC MOLTON BROWN. MY PRODUCTS ARE GUARANTEED FRESH, NEW, AND HAVE NEVER OPENED.

HOWEVER, IT HAS BEEN BROUGHT TO MY ATTENTION FROM SOME BUYERS THAT THEY HAVE PURCHASED FAKE MOLTON BROWN ITEMS RECENTLY ON EBAY FROM OTHER SELLERS. I WILL NOT MENTION ANY SELLERS NAMES BUT THESE ITEMS ARE BEING SOLD BY A NUMBER OF SELLERS AND THEN RE-SOLD ON EBAY BY EVEN MORE SELLERS. THE THING IS THAT SOMEONE MAY BE BUYING TO RE-SELL ON EBAY AND THEY ARE UNKNOWINGLY SELLING FAKE MOLTON BROWN

THESE ITEMS LOOK GENUINE ENOUGH AT FIRST BUT THERE ARE A FEW TELL-TALE SIGNS. UNFORTUNATELY SOME OF THESE DIFFERENCES ARE NOT OBVIOUS UNTIL THE PRODUCTS ARE RECEIVED.

THE PRINT ON THE BOTTLES ARE BOLDER AND DARKER THAN GENUINE BOTTLES.  THE  COLOUR & TEXTURE OF THE PRODUCT IS DIFFERENT - BUT MOST OF ALL THE SMELL IS A DEAD GIVE-AWAY.  EVEN THE LIDS & PUMPS DIFFER. THE FAKE HAIRWASHES ARE A LITTLE CLOUDY NOT CLEAN AND CRISP LOOKING LIKE THE GENUINE PRODUCTS

SO FAR THE FAKE ITEMS I HAVE BEEN TOLD ABOUT ARE:

• ZIAO JAO HEALTHY HAIRWASH - 300ml
• CLEANSHINE QUILLAJA HAIRWASH - 300ml
• INDIAN CRESS INSTANT CONDITIONER - 300ml
  
• THAI VERT FINE LIQUID HANDWASH - 300ml
• THAI VERT SOOTHING HAND LOTION - 300ml
  
• INSPIRING WILD-INDIGO BATH & SHOWER - 300ml
• INSPIRING WILD-INDIGO BODY LOTION - 300ml
• ROSE GRANATI FINE LIQUID HANDWASH - 300ml
• ROSE GRANATI SOOTHING HAND LOTION - 300ml
• RECHARGE BLACK PEPPER BODYWASH - 300ml
• ULTRA LIGHT BAI JI HYDRATOR - 100ml
• CELESTIAL MARACUJA BATHING NECTAR - 300ml

I HAVE MANAGED TO GET MY HANDS ON A COUPLE OF THESE FAKE ITEMS AND HAVE PHOTOGRAPHED A FAKE AND GENUINE ITEM TOGETHER TO LET YOU SEE THE DIFFERENCE.

THE ABOVE PHOTO IS WILD-INDIGO BODY LOTION.  THERE IS A VERY SLIGHT COLOUR DIFFERENCE IN THE ACTUAL PRODUCT THE FAKE BOTTLE ON THE LEFT IS NOT FILLED TO THE TOP YOU CAN SEE A GAP.  THE PRINT IS BOLDER AND MESSY. THE FAKE PRODUCT SMELLS NOTHING LIKE WILD-INDIGO. THE IS ACTUALLY A PRINTING ERROR ON THE BOTTLE - THE FRENCH READS SOIN CORPOREL RESSOURCANT. THE C IN RESSOURCANT HAS A LITTLE SQUIGGLE UNDERNEATH IN THE GENUINE BUT THE SQUIGGLE IS MISSING ON THE FAKE BOTTLE **UPDATE - MOLTON BROWN DO NOT NOR HAVE THEY EVER SOLD 300ml BOTTLES OF INSPIRING WILD-INDIGO BODY LOTION - SO IF YOU SEE THIS FOR SALE THEN YOU KNOW FOR SURE IT IS FAKE - IT HAS BEEN REPORTED THAT ONE SELLER IS CLAIMING THESE ARE MADE FOR FRASERS AND MOLTON BROWN IN LEEDS - I HAVE CALLED BOTH THESE STORES AND ALSO MOLTON BROWN HQ IN LONDON - THEY DO NOT SELL AND DO NOT PRODUCE A 300ML WILD-INDIGO BODY LOTION**

ABOVE IS ROSE GRANATI HANDWASH. THERE IS QUITE AN OBVIOUS COLOUR DIFFERENCE IN THE TWO BOTTLES AND AGAIN THE FAKE ITEM IS NOT FILLED TO THE TOP. THE FAKE ONE SMELLS NOTHING LIKE GENUINE ROSE GRANATI. THE FAKE ONE SMELLS LIKE EVERYDAY CHEAP HANDWASH.  ROSE GRANATI HAS A WARM SPICY SCENT - THEY ARE COMPLETELY DIFFERENT.

MOLTON BROWN IS FAMOUS FOR USING  NATURAL  INGREDIENTS IN THEIR PRODUCTS - I LOVE THEIR STUFF AS I HAVE VERY SENSITIVE SKIN AND SEEM TO HAVE NO TROUBLE WITH MOLTON BROWN ITEMS AT ALL.  IT IS A VERY HIGH QUALITY LUXURY BRAND AND PRODUCTS HAVE A DISTINCTIVE SCENTS THAT SMELLS LIKE NOTHING ELSE! YOU ONLY NEED TO USE A VERY SMALL AMOUNT e.g. HANDWASH - ONE OR TWO PUMPS ON WET HANDS WILL CREATE A RICH LATHER AND RINSE OFF EASILY WITH NO RESIDUE BUT THE SCENT WILL STAY FOR AGES ON THE HANDS.

MY ADVICE IS TO CHECK FEEDBACK BEFORE PLACING A BID.  MAKE SURE YOU ARE BUYING FROM A REPUTABLE SELLER WITH A GOOD FEEDBACK SCORE AND BEST TO BE A POWER SELLER (HOWEVER MANY OF THE FAKE SELLERS HAVE NOW GOT POWER SELLER STATUS BECAUSE THEY HAVE SOLD SUCH A HIGH VOLUME OF ITEMS IN A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME) LOTS OF MOLTON BROWN SELLERS HAVE BEEN SELLING FOR A COUPLE OF YEARS AND HAVE MANY REPEAT CUSTOMERS - THIS IS A GOOD SIGN.

NOT ALL MOLTON BROWN BEING SOLD ON EBAY IS FAKE.  MOST IS GENUINE.  IT IS A SHAME THAT A COUPLE OF SCAMMERS HAVE WORMED THEIR WAY IN AND RUINING IT FOR EVERYONE.

IF YOU HAVE PURCHASED FAKE MOLTON BROWN THEN PLEASE REPORT IT TO EBAY AS THIS IS THE ONLY WAY THESE SCAMMERS CAN BE STOPPED

GOOD LUCK AND HAPPY EBAYING GUYS :0)
