Hello!
I'm new here. I made a more formal "hello" on the intro board but thought I would intro myself on the boards I might be on. GQS is one of them.
Sadly, to admit, I was a fan of the GQS. I found them right before Ashley gave birth...around November that year. She delivered after Christmas. I thought they were such a sweet and humble Mormon couple with a lot on their plates. Being the naturally generous person I am, I admit I bought products from their Etsy store and Ashley's lipstick line. I had used the lipsticks before, and I genuinely like them. I guess I should say I TRIED to buy lipstick from her but 4x I was shut down by her "helper". This woman may not work for her anymore...I don't know. But myself and 3 others on her Facebook group for the lipstick were repeatedly ignored and spoken rudely to. Like any normal person, I reported this to Ashley. She read the message and never responded. It was then I realized they likely aren't who they portray themselves to be.Who runs a business and chooses to ignore that your potential customers are being bullied and ignored? I didn't think too much but continued being a fan and bought my lipstick elsewhere. Months have gone on and I've watched them morph from innocent adults who need to read a book or two into money-grubbing, neglectful lunatics. I feel for their girls. Both of their parents are incredibly immature, selfish individuals with no course for the future. I do not care they have money or people lavish gifts to them. What makes me sad is they record their neglect for all to see and really exploit their girls. Your CHILDREN have their own IG accounts?! Your innocent, lovely, beautiful CHILDREN who depend on you for safety and privacy are exposed to the world and all the perverts to see. Now, I believe they are just neglectful parents who lucked out. I don't wish poorly on them - that does no good. I just hope they read these boards and take some of this advice/content seriously. Maybe put the camera down and pick up common sense instead? Geeze.
Anyway, HELLO! And I guess I'll be around soon!
