Carol's Express Fights Suits Filed by Carol's Daughter

NEW YORK , May 7 /PRNewswire/ -- Carol's Express, LLC, the widely popular beauty personal care line under the leadership of Donyale Bush, COO continues to defend its position against Carol's Daughter, distributed at Macy's and Sephora, regarding trademark infringement.

In an electronic filing on October 17, 2008 at 4:23 PM EDT, attorneys for Carol's Express cited "Plaintiff's (Carol Daughter, LLC) prior counsel, Jones Day Law firm... advised on an investigation... and was not a request to cease and desist from the sale of (Carol's Express) products in CVS."

"It's important that consumers know where Carol's Daughter is really made, what the relevant facts are and that the whole home spun story is nothing more than marketing spin," states Donyale Bush, COO of Carol's Express, LLC. "While we welcome legal competition, intimidation and sour grapes of this nature is shameful."

The defense against the complaint filed by Carol's Daughter substantiates the high quality of Carol's Express and ceXpress brands. Carol's Daughter and the Carol's Express brand were made in the same warehouses at the time the suit was filed. Neither brand was made in the kitchen as of the filing date of the suit.

Donyale Bush, founder of Carol's Express, commented, "This is a desperate attempt to continue to exploit consumers for anywhere from $20-$45 per product, when we provide a high quality product in ceXpress at half the price. We provide the consumer with a nature-based product at a sexy value. We know this will make our customer base, which we know to be savvy customers scrutinizing ever dollar in this economy, happy."
