Talk:L'Occitane en Provence

IPA

This question was added by User:199.75.181.10 to the article and has been moved to the discussion page:

How is L'Occitane pronounced? is there a site with audio pronunciation or with IPA (International Phonetic Alphabet) listing?

I would ask it to WikiProject France. --Caspian blue (talk) 02:26, 29 July 2008 (UTC)

Advert

This articles reads like an advert, even after I cut out chunks. And there are no references whatsoever. I believe it is a notable company (they have several outlets in NYC, so they are certainly international). It's a shame their article is not better. --Nricardo (talk) 05:07, 6 April 2008 (UTC)

• I've stubbed it to cut out the advertising copy - this version was almost pure spam; not surprising given that it was edited extensively by User:Loccitaneusa. Iain99^{Balderdash and piffle} 06:59, 23 May 2008 (UTC)

Indeed, I'm very surprised to see this notable company at this. I stumble upon here from shea butter, and naturally thought this would have as much information as Body Shop has. Just wow. (my sister would be very surprised as well if I tell her it). --Caspian blue (talk) 04:14, 23 June 2008 (UTC)

Fined by FTC

January 7, 2014 L’Occitane is being fined for a skin cream called Almond Beautiful Shape that allegedly would slim a person’s body “1.3 inches in just 4 weeks,” and another cream called Almond Shaping Delight that supposedly was clinically proven to slim the body as well. The company did not have scientific evidence behind these promises, however.

L’Occitane settled for a fine of $450,000. The company cannot claim any of its products have slimming qualities unless they are backed by two reliable scientific human clinical studies. They cannot also claim their products reduce cellulite, body fat or weight unless there is competent scientific evidence.

  Should't this section be in the main article? Sejtam (talk) 02:54, 18 September 2014 (UTC)
