I don't really care as long as a.) they don't mess with the formulas and b.) they don't start testing on animals. I've been with her products since she first started selling them as well but I don't take it personally IF she actually sold it. If a and b occur, I will find something else to use which will be a bummer but what are ya gonna do?

I just posted on the other thread: When her products change, I'll worry about it. Until then, I think it's just normal business expansion.

Well no one lives forever and when a company is started by an individual at some point they must turn over the reigns to someone else. It is only natural they would sell it and hopefully for those who like their products they will continue to be of the same quality.

It's not always about growth; sometimes it's just about government regulations and distribution and costs. It's very expensive to be successful.

These are my feelings exactly. Right now it doesn't bother me at all because they are quality products that work.

I hope they keep the prices affordable. I too have been with Paula since day one, starting with her 8% AHA Gel.
I agree with the others.. keep the ingredient decks alone, no animal testing with reasonable pricing & I'll continue to buy.

This type of commentary is exactly why I stopped participating in these boards awhile back. The select few folks who have such a negative attitude and always feel it necessary to belittle how other people feel, or make snide remarks. I'm sure I will evoke a nasty response from you for calling you out on this, but sick to death of the nasty rhetoric from some folks in here when the overwhelming majority of people seem so nice, and are definitely here to share info and are kind to one another. You are entitled to your own opinion. But don't (insert expletive here) all over mine.
