Is Color Street A Scam? Can You Nail This MLM? [Review]

Who Is Fa Park?

Fa Park, a South Korean national, he arrived in America in 1984 with dreams of being an Opera singer.

It was while on a public bus that he noticed a woman applying nail polish at every traffic light and blow drying them with her own breath he was curious as to why women need to go through this struggle on a frequent basis. 

That gave birth to the idea of removing the regular brush and bottle approach and the creation of nail polish strips which are easily applied. 

Color Street Nails Lawsuit

It appears that there are no lawsuits filed against Color Street Nails by any private citizen, regulatory authority or corporation.

This is something that you should always check for as network marketing businesses have that unfortunate habit of attracting the wrong kind of attention and ending up in court for one reason or another.

The name of the company tells you exactly what kind of products to expect. They have a range of nail art designs for ladies that love their nails to be decorative and beautiful. 

The designs are wide and varied and, yes, rather eye-catching!. 

There are a variety of categories to help you find their range of 100+ designs

1. Solid colors
2. French manicure
3. Nail art designs
4. Glitter designs
5. Glitter-dipped
6. Winter/Spring/Summer/Fall collection
7. Sports collection
8. Clear Nail Art
9. Patriotic Collection
10. Thanksgiving Collection
11. Valentine's Day collection

The nail polish strips by Color Street have a dry top and are moist underneath. This is so that they do not break when applied.

Every business opportunity that you are interested in you should look for their accreditation and standing with the Better Business Bureau and the Direct Sellers Association. 

We can garnish and gather a lot of information from both of those sites and get an idea of how much we can or can't trust them as well as how legally and professionally they conduct business. 

Color Street are not accredited with the BBB and hold a deplorable F rating. 

Membership to the Direct Sellers Association is not something that is handed out like confetti. It is difficult to obtain due to a very stringent set of standards that first must be met and secondly maintained - or membership will be terminated!. 

The whole vetting process takes over a year. 

Color Street Nail are unfortunately not listed as a member of the DSA and neither have their membership pending. 

The most common complaint seems to be related to late delivery and late processing of orders made online. 

There have been some complaints regarding billing issues.

It appears that the nail art products sold by Color Street Nails are non toxic and do not contain any commonly found toxins such as Dibutyl Phthalate, Formaldehyde, Camphor, Xylene, Toluene, Parabens and Ethyl Talmud. 

The price of Color Street Nails range and vary on the design. There price is between US$11 and US$14. 

Often there are special deals and offers to be seen on their site. 

According to their website, Color Street Nails are said to last for at least 10 days, which is more or less a week and half. 

Ample time in my opinion. 

There are some things that I did like about Color Street Nails Business Opportunity, which were: 

• Very unique and targeted product. 
• Lot of different designs which make them very saleable. 
• New MLM to get into - not saturated.
• Inexpensive to get started with them.

There were some things that I did not like about Color Street, which were: 

• Deplorable rating with the Better Business Bureau.
• Not Members of the DSA.
• The products are low priced which means low commissions. 
• Low Success rate.

In this part of my examination and investigation I like to give you the details, the facts and the figures that will give you an indication not only if you can make money with their opportunity but how much and how likely you are to succeed. 

Let's have a look at their income disclosure statement!. 

The first column, Percentage of all Color Street Stylists, you can see in the first row that 54.32% earned an average of US$11.76. 

From the Senior Director Column, 0.44% of all distributors (Stylists) earned an average of US$2,314.73 per month. This is the total income and revenue generated not including the cost of running your Color Street Business. 

With 99.56% of all distributors earning less than this amount I think it is fair to say that you can't make a full time income with this business opportunity. 

No, 

From my investigation and examination of the company, business opportunity and compensation plan I cannot see anything that indicates that color street are a pyramid scheme.

Yes, Color Street are a Multilevel Marketing Business opportunity.

This easily determined given the compensation plan paying out over 4 levels deep and their business model adopted. 

I have seen nothing at all to indicate nor suggest that Color Street are a scam. 

I am not aware nor have found them to be in breach on current laws and regulations regarding direct selling or operating a network marketing business. 

Color Street Nails is a great business opportunity and have targeted their market brilliantly with much loved products that are very unique. 

But, 

Their products are so low in price that you will have to be a sales machine to earn a full time income with this company. 

This is indicative of the low earnings made by their stylists which is proven in their income disclosure statement. 

This will sadly end up as quite a difficult business to run. 

Good luck. 

Affiliate Marketing is my Number 1 recommended way for making money in the digital world both for those just starting out and those that are semi experienced. 

The reasons are pretty simple:

• No huge startup costs!
  
• No Selling face to face!

In fact...

I have created and built a regular mid 4 figure passive monthly income and fully enjoy a life of travel to where I want and when I want. With no boss to answer to and zero annoying co-workers I completely enjoy life and work when I choose to.

This is all thanks to Affiliate Marketing!
