Whatever happened to Smashbox Cosmetics?

And the beautiful blonde vendor.

I buy mine at Beauty Brand or Ultra. With Beauty Brand I generally have a 10% off coupon.

Re: Whatever happened to Smashbox Cosmetics?

There was another thread I saw the other day that was telling about Holly Mordini. She is the beautiful blonde and she will be launching her own make up line this year. I look forward to seeing what it is like. I always loved watching Holly on QVC and I learned a lot from her about makeup application. I love Smashbox and I'm sure Holly's new line will be fantastic too.

Hope Holly will bring her line to the Q. Time for something new!

I really miss seeing Holly on TV. She was my favorite demo person who always gave such wonderful tips and tricks. And a lovely person to boot. Hopefully we'll see her on TV again soon with her own makeup line. I hope it's a great success for her.

Re: Whatever happened to Smashbox Cosmetics?

Hi Ford,

I think she just went the way of many company ceo's. It becomes to time consuming, too expensive and very restrictive for small companies to do it all, without giving up leadership. Personally, I have my own conspiracy theory. LOL! I think that the big companies make it too difficult for the little "guy" to stay afloat or expand, without joining the large companies.

She is starting her own company. This I don't get. If you have a company that is doing well, why do you want to sell and start up again? Unless there were partners that needed to be bought out, or company philosophy is divided. Just my guess..

I am very curious to see whether or not Holly is coming to QVC. I feel like if she was going to bring her line here, then we would have heard some "rumblings". So far, nothing.

Holly said her new line would be out in spring 2014. I believe it's called "Light", but not sure. She is living in Chicago now, not L.A. I don't look for her line to be on Q.
