Thanks for posting this. All we need are more beauty shows to not watch.

Thank you for the article. Very interesting reading. We are all seeing some of the changes but it was good to see actually what will be changing. My son and DIL both work in corporate offices for retail chains and Amazon is just killing everyone.

Wow, Batallure Beauty is the company behind Christian Louboutin cosmetics.

Beauty has a HUGE markup, big profits.
I am surprised at this decision, HSN and QVC are NOT my go to place to shop for makeup/beauty.
Besides, most of the manufacturers have their own websites, offer the friends and family discounts, offer special free kits and even the major department stores have the free kits.

I was thinking the other day that many of us shop Amazon all the time without "seeing a long presentation" of the item(s). All the theatrics on QVC aren't really necessary in many cases. I'm disappointed in the merger as far as HSN goes. I see that the free shipping they offered before is now gone. Also, been noticing even though I am home most days, I seldom watch QVC more than 10-30 minutes all day. Before I kept it on many hours a day. Buying less too.

Well, that will send me off to another channel to watch. I've thought there were too many cosmetics items that are all basically the same and expensive. How much goop does a person have to wear? Sorry, I feel I've earned the lines and grey hair, I'm not going to spend hundreds of dollars trying to hide them. I've never tried to watch the Q's beauty channel, and I have no interest in Q2 either. Now with them adding the 2 HSN channels that's 5 channels of mainly the same stuff. I found a local access channel that plays different styles of music depending on the time of day, and it tells about things happening in my area. I've gone from having QVC on around the clock to not having any shopping channel on now in a while. I hope those 20 somethings they want watching show up, but you're losing the older folks that got you going. Nothing new and different. That means nothing interesting.

Very interesting article! Thanks for posting!
I LOVE beauty shows! I watch them all the time on QVC for ideas.......NOT ON youtube, QBeauty channel or other social media. I totally dislike the formats of these 'selfie' type shows.
Funny, I have never and never considered buying Beauty products from Amazon (or ebay). Don't trust 3rd party sellers...yet Amazon is ranked top!
Since beauty.com is gone, I now buy my Beauty products from Ulta, QVC & Sephora who don't even make the list!
I must be odd man out!

I think they will have a hard time getting the 20-40 or so age group to shop on QVC. My kids and their friends sure don't watch or shop. Also, my senior friends don't watch or shop QVC either. Some are not into that much shopping and others travel a lot and/or are willing to drive several miles to go to a Nordstrom store, etc. Most of these same individuals do shop a lot at Amazon and so do I.
