Wow draw your claws in. If you were offered 1.2 billion for a business you built would you turn it down ? And I'm allowed free speech too. This will give her and her family financial freedom. Can't believe how snarky you are. Hmm do I see green envy perhaps

Re: It cosmetics just sold to L'oreal

People have purchased IT cosmetics because it was "cruelty free".  Well, no more......

I wouldn't touch it again myself.    People believed in Jaime's philosophy and the company's mission.    But, in the end, it was all about the money.    Bye, bye Jaime.

If people think the L'oreal will "work with plastic surgeons" they are mistaken IMO. Jamie and IT are taking a beating over on the IT Instagram. People are really upset.

i won't be purchasing anything from IT again.  I can't stand the products produced from L'oreal.  They're horrible products especially their hair care products.  That's "IT" for me.

Happy for Jamie, sad for the consumer.  I think brands change significantly and not necessairly for the better when they are bought.

Jamie will still be involved with the company, probably will continue to do her qvc shows but I doubt the product will be the same going forward.   I don't blame her for doing the deal though, just sad for consumers.

 

NYX and Urban Decay are owned by Loreal too.
