Like what the management is doing and a retailer raising guidance in this environment should pop up on anybody's radar.

During a recession a fad like this will have a tough time to make it. On top of that they are very leveraged...not a good time for that strategy.

They make a good product that has fantastic brand loyalty and a good distribution network. Their sales were strong even in Q4 2008, and that bodes well for the future.

Lets see, a unique product, uses QVC to get there product in front of people and consistant growth in sales I believe this is a winner. Management seems to run the company very well based on how I see them running this company. It is a up and comer and will continue to grow.

I think this stock has a lot of potential. But I don't believe that potential will be realized in the next year or so. Due to the economy and consumers tightening their belts, I think high priced skin care will be something that gets put on hold.

this is one of my inside (desire) stocks. I don't get why it is not more successful. "street" research shows me that it is the most popular makeup by under 30. Still researching... cramer doesn't like it, but I do.

Growing strongly. Expanding outside the US to earn appreciating foreign currency. If the range takes off in Europe they will continue to get growth no matter what the climate

Double bottoms. Time for this stock to go back up.

This is an IPO with good mutual fund participation and goodfuture earnings growth

This stock doesn't deserve to be this high. I don't see how its Q3 was much better than its Q2 ...
I think a panic sell will happen in the near future.

I'm very impressed with the financial performance of this company. They increased their cash position very well throughout the recession. I even have this in my real portfolio (but sadly, did not average down on when the stock was near $3 - thought the retail sector was going to hell).
So why the underperform pick? I think the stock has simply run up too high, too quickly. It's trading at a 52-week high in a sector which has lagged. I'm betting on a short-term pull back instead of a breakout.

There is stll a chance for this one.

This is one of my few adventures outside of biotechs. It came about after a prolonged trip to a big box store with my wife and two daughters. After spending several hours in the cosmetic deptment
watching traffic and sales I came to belive that regardless of the economy the "war paint" of the american woman would be applied.

Fashion is not going away. With a forward PE of 9, little debt, this would seem to be a good little company.

Going short...stock has been on the decline for almost a year

Best brand in its biz. Strong management team.
