Besides, the beauty salon staff did not mention the requirement of further paying HK$1,000 to buy the specialized gel when Mommy Onion presented the group-purchase receipt. The staff did so only after Mommy Onion had taken off her clothes and was about to undergo the treatment. This is considered to be providing material information in an untimely manner which causes or is likely to cause the average consumer to make a transactional decision that the consumer would not have made otherwise (i.e. the decision to pay an extra HK$1,000 to purchase the specialized gel). Therefore, the beauty salon may have committed
the offence of misleading omissions.
