That's great Lauren!! I expect the majority of my holiday coins will primarily go to Guerlain & Chanel.

My thoughts EXACTLY! If true, guess Mr. Ford is wanting to expand his market and profit margins. I'm interested to see how Sephora handles this because they could have an explosion of Rouge members.SEPHORA?!

TF has to compete with CL.
There's no way he's not going to team up with Sephora knowing CL is sold there. CL did it right by starting out the gate at Sephora.
Who knows what TF profits could have been had he not tried to be "exclusive" and sold to Sephora from the beginning. TF wanted to appeal to wealth only not realizing the younger market may not be wealthy but we do heavily invest in cosmetics. So it was a bad marketing move for TF to exclude us from his target market as he realizes with the CL launch, CL lipsticks are $90 yet the younger market are the ones that are buying them.

Oh I agree completely! I understand wanting to be 'exclusive.' CL took a shotgun to that Re: Spehora, though, huh? Because I think of CL being more or perhaps peer to TF in exclusivity with traditional offerings, so smart for them to be more expansive with beauty.
It does make me wonder if TF will try to out-do CL by offering some sort of special formula/packaging to get up in $$. Or will they simply raise their 'normal' lippie prices steadily to see what the market will take? There's been enough 'This lipstick is nice, but not $90 nice,' talk in most non-blogger circles (on the other hand...these things can't keep in stock) that I am interested to see how things play out.

Yeah I think for TF signing on with Sephora is going to be his saving grace because while all the hype is CL right now, as you stated most are not going to continue to buy a $90 lipstick when their are good cheaper alternatives such as TF. Now that TF has made himself massively available, his lipstick will now be the go to when one doesn't want to go extravagant with CL. So in the end it's still a win for him so he really doesn't need to change anything as increasing his prices outside the annual increase margin will do more harm than good at this point.
Gucci will more than likely remain exclusive because my Gucci SA told me that Gucci beauty is intended to be an extension of the Gucci experience. Meaning you go to the Gucci boutique and buy your outfit, handbag, and shoes then have your makeup done for your night out/special event. The beauty is just an added aspect and it's not trying to make a statement amongst other cosmetics which is why there's no seasonal collections. Items will be added periodically like there is a new mascara and eye cream skin care but there won't be massive collections being released. For holiday there will be gift sets but not anything new.
