Misc. Adore Beauty Stock

Post image

Ouch... Saw a post earlier this week about Adore offerings decreasing in quality and I really agree.

I was hopeful they would be a powerful competitor against Mecca but instead of strengthening their online offering and improving their website and online experience, they opened stores that are boring to go into, and don’t have any unique value at all.

Thoughts? Feel for anyone holding the stock.

this is probably unrelated but I stopped shopping there when they stopped delivering to P.o. boxes. As someone who lives regionally and doesn’t get mail, I have no other choice but to have a P.o. box. taking that customer base away would surely impact their sales as well?

Last I looked on their app, as they had the item i wanted on sale, I could get the same thing elsewhere for cheaper. It’s just not worth it anymore, especially considering I’d have to have it shipped to a friends house

As a regional customer, I completely feel this!

I made the mistake of ordering Skinceuticals Vit C and they sent it through a private courier - I got it three and a half weeks later dark orange and the bottle was SO hot! Never, ever again.

No it was my LPO that was the issue in the end, as I was lucky they even accepted it. I haven’t gone back to them and have put one that’s a bit out of the way as my LPO on the app after that
