I really like the Laura Geller brand especially her lipsticks. I thought the products were made in Italy but now I notice some just say imported, but no country of origin. Say it isn't so Laura.

@Jww   It costs much less to manufacture and package products outside the US. We sure could use the jobs here, so maybe a great way to get the ball rolling is to begin independence of making our own products across the board here and hire our own workers. Anyway, Clean Beauty is taking over the market. Most is made here to be able to supervise the standards. I'm hoping the demands don't make it necessary to produce it overseas or to keep production here, raise the prices so much it keeps us from purchasing.

I know at Xmas time she was selling nice kits that were very reasonable, like a full face kit. They were Made in China.

@Jww  That's why I stopped purchasing It Cosmetics.

@Jww   Laura sold her company so God only knows what they are doing with the company and where products are made.  Laura is the spokesperson for a certain amount of time.

@Mimi 1883   Not sure where it was made when first presented, but it was much better quality.

Her baked products are listed as made in Italy. She says she has a factory there.

@Shanus  Now that you said that, I do remember hearing a couple of YouTubers a while back remark about not being as good anymore. They're also no longer cruelty free, so I wouldn't purchase again for that reason. It just makes me sad that my two favorite foundations are not cruelty free, so they're out as well for any future purchases.

I spotted some of Laura’s items at TJ Maxx awhile back and some were made in China, mostly holiday items like special palettes. I do love her blushes, the balance and brighten and the baked lipsticks, those are made in Italy as far as I know.

I ordered off her LG's website several things for my DDs and granddaughters for Christmas on Black Friday. No confirmation email and they had no contact phone number on the webpage...very strange. No response to my many emails asking where my orders were after it had been several weeks and I never got an ETA email. The order finally arrived the day before Christmas and now they are flooding me with emails trying to sell me more stuff. No way. I will only order her stuff from QVC now. I have been using her baked highlighter, blush, eyeshadow, and eyeliner for years....it's the best. I just hope they don't stop making it.
