Sounds like Laura Geller's role in her company is slowly being minimized

I love Laura, have met her (at an Ulta that I had to drive hours to get to!), and have learned a lot from her. Last night at midnight, and during the show this evening, we saw a lot of Ashlee. Laura Geller's "first ever global director."

I know Laura sold her company and others are running it, but unlike the new owners of Mally and Bobbi Brown, the company that owns LG now seems to be keeping her original products along with some new ones.

I don't think she has much say in how the products are developed and marketed any longer though. Now with Ashlee presenting on shows with her, I think it's only a matter of time before she will leave to spend more time with Daniel. JMHO only!

I was wondering of Laura is just tired of the long and varied timeslots also. She is getting up in age and I"m sure she can afford to take a break. The new ambassador is SUPER Pretty, I was like WOW, if I could look like her. I'd be thrilled.

I wonder what happened to Laura's other assistant, she had short blonde hair. Anyone know?

Laura isn't that old - 59 to perhaps 62

It seems the norm for women to start their company, build up its customers and sell for big money. I wish them all well. However, I miss Maureen from Tarte, even the lady from Philosophy. Laura will probably start really enjoying her life though I think she is use to working hard like all the other ladies and maybe they are all doing something else as doing nothing is quite boring.

I love Laura! Her personality is what really drew me to her products. I hope she always makes some appearances and does keep involved in the company.

Love Laura Geller. She is such a sweet woman. I met her years ago at 2 beauty bashes. She is the real deal!!! Her line was longer than most as she is so beloved. I also spoke to her many years ago on the phone when she picked up the line at her business. She was so kind!!

@AngelPuppy1, I thoroughly enjoy Laura Geller. She is so down to earth. No phony!!!!! Plus her "hints are great and her products are not quite as expensive as other lines. I hope she continues to promote her line. New assistant is lovely but she as a long way to be like Laura.

@fthunt- Really - I agree! I wouldn't say she was "getting up there in age"...not yet.

@Big Joanie, I thought the very same thing.

I googled her. Her name is Ashlee Glazer. Apparently she was named Global Artistic Director in August, 2017 and the article I found said she will also serve as back-up to LG on QVC.

It says she has been a celebrity make-up artist, worked for MAC and has appeared on The Today Show, Wendy Williams and New York Live as an expert.

She also has/had a YouTube channel.

Good for her! If I had the option to take the money and run or keep showing up to work at midnight and 3am and 9am or whatever slot they needed me for, I'd be off to Australia and waving at QVC from the plane as I flew over.

I agree with you!

Regarding age of Q vendors:

Isaac M. is about 56 or so. I wouldn't alll him old. He's still the "face" of the brand.

As for someone getting older, I think that's Judith Ripka, Louis D. and Dennis Basso. Susan Graver. Are we not all getting older.

BTW even if they are "older," they can still do this work. They're not exactly out there breaking rocks. The hours aren't easy to do, but then they have "ambassadors" and "team members."

@Big Joanie, I thought the same thing but can't place where I have seen her.

I like Laura, she seems like a sweet soul. I still have several of her compacts but havent ordered anything from her in awhile.

I am so glad for these ladies/men working hard and making it big but I do hate the fact these companies get sold off. I dont blame them at all but some things are never the same. It is disappointing when you come to love a product. To this day, I still miss Christina Carlino and the original scents. I loved amazing grace but feel the scent has changed. Her original scents is one thing I wish I stocked up on.
