Only if I can find the product I'm looking for in person, or from a reputable site (Naimies, possibly Sephora, etc). I've never ordered from LC's main site, and I probably never will.

I have ordered LC from Nastygal and UrbanOutfitters as well with no issues

I am done with them unless I cave. Riot is probably dupable and i think Cashmere would look terrible on my skin tone-- so many other companies have liquid lipsticks now that I'm sure we will find better alternatives. I like KVD's formula better anyway personally so I'll take my money elsewhere.

It's kinda funny that I was always uncomfortable with supporting Doe/LC but with all these new things coming out I was thinking about finally buying something, but then this happened almost like a sign.

I still REALLY want Venus...I just hope that i can find it some day either in the clearance bin, or a blog sale, or if it ever is on Sephora or UO website. That's the one thing I would buy, but not from their website directly.

Also, what Doe doesn't understand is she is horrible for LC. She wants to be in the limelight of her brand and it's just a bad idea when she doesn't know the first thing about customer service. A lot of companies could have douchebag CEOs and we wouldn't really know.But Doe wants to be the center of attention so everyone knows what a brat she is and it reflects badly on her brand. (IMO)

That's a really great point that I didn't consider. It puts a face to the brand, which isn't a good thing if you're not going to have good customer service.

someone on ig commented on a pic of my Venus pallette, saying can I buy this from you… The nerve.... it was just underneath me saying to someone that I love it and wouldn't sell it ...

SOB... mid January I was about to make a purchase for Lovesick stack and checked my account to make sure I had enough money and saw that my account had been compromised. Reading this BS about LC makes me think my information might have been those among that was taken... even if my purchase was done mid December. This'll teach me to use PayPal from now on. XD

My hubby recently got utopia for me as a gift and it doesn't smell like my other velvetines. I'm wondering if anyone else had this issue?

They have a different smell. The originals smell more candy-like. The newer ones smell like vanilla cake batter.

Probably because LC is going under. I don't think it's gonna survive this hacking scandal.

I'm predicting she paints herself as the victim somehow and gains sympathy from people who weren't affected and don't know any better.

I could see that happening. I could see some people not caring or even not knowing, if you weren't on social media lately. It's not like it's in the news lol

And if you don't follow her you'd have no idea you were hacked! You're required by law to make make notification of a breach, and FB/IB doesn't count, which she hasn't done. Big no-no :nono:

yeah- they have some stock left and had cashmere listed for a day on their site. it disappeared after a few hours, and when i asked them, they said that they would no longer carry it. this was a few weeks ago, though, pre-scandal. it was around the time she pulled out of australia.

also, dunno if ayone notices, but uo takes the lc products down during sales or coupon codes that give a dollar amount or percentage off of the total.
