I must confess to being one of the thousands of people who 'bought' into the whole LE story and ethos at the beginning.
However a few things have been niggling me about them for a while now mainly:
The whole C&P Almond milk debate - yes its been taken out, and yes its obviously made a difference to people. She can say its been taken out because of allergies until she's blue in the face but it was good enough for nearly 15 years. In her book I'm sure she says that the Almond Milk in the C&P is an extract, or something like that, therefore doesn't cause allergies. And at least tell people you're taking it out and don't trot the standard customer blurb, that its been phased out slowly since 2008, customer service are at the heart of the brand etc, etc....
Avon - Sorry Liz, but it was a buy out as reported in the business press, not a flowery partnership you said it was in your flowery press release. A business woman like you should know the difference. And for a company that is BUAV approved to team up with a company who may not test their products on animals, but are not against hiring companies that do to come up with new ingredients on 'medical grounds' is a bit iffy.
Launching new products shampoo and the fragrance, and not sending out samples to customers, expecting them to fork out for the full sizes. Ok I know they could send them back but that's not the point.
There rant over, hope you don't mind but feel better now. Wanted to do that for ages.
Done it But I'm having to put another post down as I didn't put something along the lines of "To whom it may concern" at the start. Now all I have to do is wait for all the LE fanatics to start slagging off my post.
Wow someone needs to take a chill pill!
I wouldn't let it bother you, the LE fans on FB seem to be somewhat fanatical, on the QVC page every second reference under any of the beauty day posts are frantically asking if there'll be any LE on today....again and again and AGAIN!! Evidently LE is the new Messiah. I'm glad I've seen through her crap. Don't get me wrong, I still use and enjoy some of the products but because I've made an informed choice, not because of the beatific Liz who frankly, is too sweet to be wholesome...
probably get slated for this but here is my opinion:
same of these things could be applied here.
I appreciate that some people have bad periods in their life's ( me included, trust me), but I think the presenter meant that everything has an effect on their skin - and the cleanser is suppose to deal with it.
Of course she is going to say that: she is selling it. I really do not think for one moment that she was out to upset people on purpose, or try and deminish the real horrible times some people go through. BUT she was on TV, time was ticking, they have to say things to fill the time AND sell the goods. It came into her head and you do not have time on life TV to sit and think about what you are going to say with every sentence you say.
Seems that some people are as fanatical about LE on here too, and no I have no especial view of the women or her products, I use what suits my skin and change to other brands when I have to.

ooo its getting a bit bitchy over there on FB :sun:
I think to poo poo someone's feelings if if you don't agree with them is a bit mean and no one on here has done that.
[I am very disappointed that Elemis have not got a show today.Would love to see their Pro Radiance on a 4 pay.
