Last week Mary Kay threatened to sue Jennifer Bickel Cook for writing a tell-all book about her time working for Mary Kay Ash and the Mary Kay Museum and Mary Kay Foundation. They made good on the threat on Friday. The complaint is quite a read. Here are some of …
The Mary Kay ladies get so bothered by Pink Truth. They’re busy saying that we are telling lies and are full of hate, all the while they’re hating on us and telling lies about us. Yesterday in one of their private Facebook groups, they discussed our article on Mary Kay’s …
Mary Kay Inc. is nothing if not petty and controlling. And they’re awfully litigious. Remember all the lawsuits against women who were trying to sell the thousands of dollars of products they purchased from MK? It didn’t matter to MK that the company got paid in full for those products. …
