I agree with all of you. When Philosophy got bought, I was upset because the products changed. I guess it was to be expected, however, products that I used when Philosophy was with Christina Carlino, I could no longer use. I had allergic reactions to things I had used for years and finally figured out why. I guess I will see where this goes.

Re: It cosmetics just sold to L'oreal

I just received an email about the announcement. I scrolled down and was reading another part in that email thanking the IT girls and saying it would be possible to be at Ulta, Sephora and QVC if not for its loyal customers.  I didn't know IT was at Sephora? Maybe, they're going to start? Idk

What else is new... they take our money... our loyalty... get rich ... sell out... and then do not care when the quality diminishes, watered down by greed ! ~ I surely hope that Jamie has enough humility to NOT do any more shows ... the pretense would be absolutely unbearable! ~ but then, when you sell your soul...?

 

Drugstores are looking better and better ... we all end up there, anyway !

I think those who sell their compamies probadly do care - perhaps a lot - if the quality of products declines later, but they have no power to do anything about it.

A bit overdramatic. She didn't exactly sell her soul to the devil, for goodness' sake; she made a business decision to sell her company, something that happens almost daily in the business world.

In her email she specifically said IT will continue to be cruelty FREE and NOT test on animals. She will remain as the CEO.
