Well, I do understand that Edun and Nude are for profit, as they should be. I just feel that in the case of Nude, for example, $100 for a 1 ounce moisturizer is beyond the budget of a lot of people, including myself. I'd go through a 1 ounce moisturizer in about a month or so. Origins has a new organic line with most items priced around 30 bucks. And there are many organic skincare items that can be purchased at health food stores at prices that are a little expensive but don't require a second mortgage on my house. I personally think that Edun and Nude could be priced a bit lower and still make a profit, but that Ali wants a more elite image for the products. That's fine, but a bit disappointing for us non-rich people who would like to support these ventures.
At least with Edun, hopefully the clothes last a long time and can be considered an investment. That's why I ultimately splurged on a few items. With Nude it is hard to justify the splurge, as the items will be used up in a short time.
