If you bought your skincare during the beauty hours, about half of those brands have moved.

Some are still on air most weeks. Some left quietly for their own websites and never sent you a forwarding address. A few sit on a shelf at Ulta now, next to brands you have never heard of.

There is one plain question underneath all of it: where do I buy it now, and is it better direct? So I checked all sixteen, one site at a time. Everything below is what the brands were showing on September 15, 2026.

One thing before the tables. A "first order" discount is nearly always tied to email signup, and it nearly always excludes anything already on sale. If the jar you want is marked down, the code usually will not apply on top.

Two notes here. Serious Skincare went from HSN to ShopHQ and now sells only from its own site, so the price you see there is the price. And Sampar has two US addresses right now: samparbeauty.com is open, and sampar-usa.com still says "Opening soon." Use the first one.

Is direct actually cheaper

Usually the single-item price is the same wherever you buy it. What changes is everything around it.

The network sells you kits. HSN and QVC build multi-piece sets you cannot buy anywhere else, and their flexible payments are a real thing if you would rather pay a big order over five months. The brand's own site sells you singles, runs the sitewide sales, and is where the first-order code lives.

So the honest rule is this: buy singles direct, and buy kits from whoever built the kit. Then check the math either way, because a stated value is a claim, not a receipt.

There is one more difference worth knowing. Return windows are not the same. A network usually takes the jar back opened. Several of these brand sites will not, or will charge you a restocking fee. Read that line before you click, not after.

Tell me what I missed

I picked these sixteen because they are the brands this newsletter was built around. There are more.

If a brand you bought on air is not on this list, hit reply and name it. I will chase down where it sells now and add it. Same if something here has changed since I checked, which with this group happens about every other month.
