I think a lot of it is like modern day qvc isn’t it l, just chatting incessantly about something with no real substance!
Yeh she freely admitted that she had no formal training. Also head brow artist. That sounds very much like a made up name!I used yo work at benefit when Lisa was at her peak in the company. We were sort of encouraged to idolise her, as she had progressed from counter manager in covent garden to the job she "created" for herself as Head MUA. I've never heard she got any proper make up training aside from that within benefit. She did an English degree and during that time her and theo took on his siblings and the house. I'm sure theo had a brain tumor at some point too?
She had an amazing job at benefit she went to HQ in San Francisco all the time and had a lot of input in the UK brand (as far as we were told) i thought she sometimes wished she was free of the benefit tie so she was free to use any brand when she began her YouTube channel. She would struggle to create some of the looks with just the range benefit had. I did speak to her on email once about how shocking the benefit colour range in foundation's was for WOC and she agreed and was pleasant.
I think it all came down to the amount t of opptunities she could get if she left benefit and was free to advertise whatever she wanted, although she would of been on a very good wage at benefit I'm sure and had loads of free travel etc. I liked when she used to go to the h and m designer collaborations.
Do you follow her now on IG? What do you think?I used yo work at benefit when Lisa was at her peak in the company.

I don't use Instagram regularly tbh, it kinda gets me down. I used to love her when she was at benefit. However She was a bit full of herself and a lot of the management teams would fawn over her and treated her like a celebrity. She was good on qvc and brought a lot of attention to the brand. I thought it was a shame when she left as she really embodied the brand for me. I think its plainly obvious she felt she was missing out on other brand opportunities and now has just become another sell out Insta shill.Do you follow her now on IG? What do you think?
Its all a bit hit and miss really. You become a MUA because you shout the loudest and take on promotions that no-one else within Benefit would pick up. You tell the world that you are the best brow expert - because no one else is at the time and then you sit on QVC and tell the world how wonderful you are (and of course Benefit but actually you are better than Benefit) Then you break away, and become a distant relation on what you were once were upon a time. Your friends tell you not to go down the commercial road but you do. Because you need the accollade. You need to be told that you are wonderful, beautiful, stunning, amazing but actually you were that years ago before the tit stuff that you do now. You hit the fan. Big time. You do not need any of this. I hope you can read it and take note. I cannot watch you anymore. I wish you the best. Learn to drop the crap and be the lovely person that you actually are. Best wishes MYeh she freely admitted that she had no formal training. Also head brow artist. That sounds very much like a made up name!
Ooooh where is Loretta now does anybody know?Did she leave by choice or was she pushed?
I don't follow an awful lot of these types of influencers but it seemed like a lot of the big brands got rid of people at the same time?? e.g. Hannah Martin left Bobbi Brown, Loretta from LPD's benefit insta stories & posts now seems to no longer be at Benefit. Bareminerals seemed to drop some of their influencer / makeup artists too.
I always used to feel sorry for Loretta when he appeared on QVC alongside LPD. Proper rabbit caught in a headlights kinda vibe but seems a lot more natural on her Instagram.Ooooh where is Loretta now does anybody know?
Sorry if I’m being stupid but I don’t understand companies etc but what does this mean?Anyone seen her accounts, i know she hasn't been freelance for long but £30k in creditors jeeze totally wipes out her cash & Debtors.

What she owes (i imagine her car plus some tax) is about the same as what she is owed by companies and what cash she has so not much reserves to rely on. Plus 240 profit from a year trading isn’t exactly great!Sorry if I’m being stupid but I don’t understand companies etc but what does this mean?
Ah okay thank you for explaining I did wonder what that £200 off meant!! That’s crazy!What she owes (i imagine her car plus some tax) is about the same as what she is owed by companies and what cash she has so not much reserves to rely on. Plus 240 profit from a year trading isn’t exactly great!
Yes Dawn who is always at her house, I’m not sure if there’s anybody else.Ooh thats interesting. Doesnt she employ someone, an assistant too?
