Just stumbled upon an article on Forbes that BE was bought by Shisedo. Leslie Blodgett will still be consulting but is no longer CEO. Sounds like she wanted to get back to where she started when taking over BE.

That happened years ago. Everyone knows about it.

Not everyone...I didn't know. Guess I'm late to all the news!

The company was actually sold back in 2010…so it's been 4 years ago. There was a lot of discussion a year or so ago when Leslie did her last show on QVC with Lisa.
