Doesn't surprise me. A friend of mine is a buyer for cosmetics at
Nordie's
are the absolute best. Also, everyone I have ever dealt with
associated with that line, from the sales associates at the local
Nordstrom stores to the national makeup artists, has been very helpful
and enthusiastic about the line.
On the other hand, I never liked any of their foundations, or the
mascara. Everything else is just pretty much run of the mill.
Hopefully, they will arrange for some new financing so the line can
continue. I would definately hoard the Barefoot Contessa shadow if I
thought they were about to go under.
Stila going down??

Got this in Paula's Beauty Bulletin this morning.
http://www.cosmeticscop.com/bulletin/020906–full.htm#6
Not sure if you can read the newsletter from that link, but it says
that EL has decided to sell Stila because of 3rd quarter 2005 operating
losses of 3.3 million. No buyer yet, but it is listed on EL's
corporate roster as a "discontinued brand".

Yeah, they released the news a few weeks ago. Rumor has it LVMH is the
front runner and will buy the line. They've gotten quite a few offers.
Someone is going to buy Stila, so no worries about it discontinuing.

I think Stila has become over shadowed by the many cosmetic lines that
have come on to the scene. My personal favorite line for eye shadow is
MAC. Why? Because they offer so many textures and colors. They
constantly add new colors. Stila just seems to have the same colors
year after year and too many limited edition items.

Stila is doing quite well. The biggest problem perhaps is that jeanine
lobell now lives in NYC and her company is based in LA.. it's not going
down and the sales are pretty darn good.

I am sorry to hear that Stila is having difficulties. Their eye shadows that EL has decided to sell Stila because of 3rd quarter 2005 operating

are the absolute best. Also, everyone I have ever dealt with

Obviously EL has more than it can handle and Stila needs its cute
advertising and products to lure in those young girls the way it did
when it first started. Yes I know not all first buyers were young girls
but the cardboard packaging and marketing was definitely not aimed at
me. It was ok though because I certainly bought my share and more of
shadows and other products. I stopped about the time of the fragrances
which were too sweet for me.
