Wow..so disappointed IT cosmetics sold out to L'Oreal.  Brands are never the same quality when they sell.  Gonna start looking for another brand. Never any loyalty to the customers who made them famous

 

 

Wow that stinks.   I think Bare Minerals was never the same after it was sold.  So sad!

Anyone who says they wouldn't sell for that much cash because of loyalty is lying. I have a few things I like. I like both cc creams and the by by pores powder. I hope formulas don't change.

Brands are never the same once they're bought out-- I always thought part of the reason for the sale is for the larger company to scale down the competition.

I wonder, too. I read the article and it mentions the partners involved so does she get a percentage of it? All cash... wow, again!

Very disappointed.  Another one bites the dust. I will not buy products that test on animals.

Wow-Philosophy, Bare Minerals, Tarte and now It.............

Where is the loyalty to those who made them rich?

There is none....make the money and sell out-

If these companies that these women nurtured and grew and kept a watchful eye over meant anything to them...they have a funny way of showing it.


JK received an "offer she couldn't refuse" from the "godfather" of cosmetic companies.
