Maybe you should think in the MLM direction, this would rake the huns in.
We need a name though. Eau Lardy? LardLife? Lard et Sand?
In homage to the inspiration (CH), WelL'ard?
I reckon she just parted ways with Cult Beauty as she saw there was more money to be made doing it on her own and in fairness who could blame her.
Extract from one of her admin posts.....
Thank you for the HUGE support for Beauty Backed. Please be aware that I am not interested in calling out individuals or brands that have not yet donated or have not donated a lot (in your eyes). Covid has put extreme pressure on everyone and you do not know what is going on behind the scenes. I do. (Mostly)
If you are in doubt, please ask, and if I am not bound by confidentiality I will share what is happening. Please do however, keep and ‘eye’ on big online only retailers. They’ve mostly raked it in.
bbi
FFS do you think Caroline sleeps.....patrolling the beauty world to protect us all. Bold was added by me.
Also she has been calling out people as she has been tagging them. She better hope her 'brand' can survive this as no other brand will be working with her again unless it is with gritted teeth (probably straightened with Invisalign on a freebie)

@Bazaar99 and @CrocodileRock thanks both. I just knew their names rang a bell from somewhere!
These companies are going to absolutely loathe her after this. She’s going to use up any goodwill she may have had left with them and burn a lot of bridges.
So, because she knows everything, she’s in a position to have a go at brands who haven’t donated or haven’t donated ‘enough’. Nobody else knows as much as she does. The arrogance knows no bounds.

She’ll be finished by the end of the year. The tit Kits will die off and it’ll be Caroline Who?? And it’ll be her own fault. All down the drain due to her ego.
Btw my angry face is agreeing with the anger you express! Not getting shirty with you for expressing it.
I’d love to be able to agree with you but I can’t see it. The freaks seem to lap it up, and as long as she has a big follower count certain brands will want to use her to advertise. I would hope that companies will look at her behaviour and review whether they want her to represent their various brands, but at the end of the day it’s all about money.
Off the Covid-topic, but something that I think about whenever I see her talking about being a mother (maybe the only mother to love her children?) - my prayers and thoughts go out to her son's pregnant partner because I really do think CH would be the MIL from hell
I had a rant on another thread about this phenomenon, it's infuriating. Influencers and their marketers preying on these (mostly) women's desire to be part of something to sell them overpriced tit. Whether it's Hinch or anyone selling crap people don't NEED, I'm sure they argue that no-one HAS to buy these things but they target and exploit the 'whatever army' and #SomeBintMadeMeDoIt and use their extensive selling experience to make sure those that don't buy feel they've missed out. Advertising, overt and covert, works and they're masters at it.
Even if it's good quality, or "value" how many who buy these and are maybe struggling for cash are going to have a life improving experience from £250-ish of skincare versus the budget versions and spending the difference on something they actually need, a weekend break or something.
It boils my effing piss, to coin a well worn phrase.
I'll start it off if that's ok?
" I'll call you out if you don't donate, every one in the business is my mate "
"I'm a straight talking,no nonsense skin care guru, look out Boris I'm coming for you"
"Donate to the cause, beauty is on its knees, but I'll still be having my hair colour freebies"
They're all genius but I vote for the freebies one. We can never let Caroline forget her midnight freebies while she was mouthing off about the industry
That’s ok , I knew what you meant
She's coming out with these kits every 3 months and the products would last way more than 3 months in most cases. I really don't agree with encouraging people to buy more and more products all the time for so much money as well! Obviously she's all abut making money out of her freaks but surely with all her contacts in the beauty industry she could come up with a more affordable package (like less than £50) even if it was a mixture of full size and trial size products.
I only buy products when I need them but if there is a beauty box that has a couple of things I'm after then would get one. I recently got the Roccabox they did with get the gloss which was £30 and had a least 3 products I wanted.
I guess it feeds into her overall approach. The sight of all those products in her office is just so wasteful. There must be products she's never even touched let alone finishes. Wouldn't it be better to get a wider network to try out the products rarely then piling them into that office! I watched one of her retinol videos from last year and she said repeatedly that most of the products she was recommending she hadn't used....great recommendation then

She is so rough with her skin kinda irks me when she brings out the THERAPIST’S SWIPE!
kinda irks me when she brings out the THERAPIST’S SWIPE!She was so much more friendly then and not the over the top ‘voice of the industry’ she now is.She is so rough with her skin
Brilliant!
So many questions.
I wonder how her beauty box income works? Does she get x% of each box sold, a flat amount regardless of number sold or a %of the total retail price sold?
I just realized today that she only has a little over 500k IG subscribers. For someone who thinks so highly of herself and is THE (self-proclaimed) skincare expert (without a med degree or aethestician license), that’s not a lot of followers, especially for having been managed by Gleam at the beginning.

They're set up to always sell out (limited numbers and they've obviously done extensive research on the demand), so it would be the same amount regardless. Would be interested to know what that amount is though.
ETA I think 500k followers is hugely impressive for who she is and I'm really shocked it's so high. Sali Hughes only has 166k and that's with the benefit of having had a weekly column in a national newspaper for a decade.
