Publisher's Note "France has a word for beauty: Lancome". Since its establishment in 1935, Lancome has been the leading French name in international cosmetics. This illustrated book profiles Its founder, Armand Petitjean, a self-made man of uncommon vision and determination, who decided to capture the "blue ribbon of beauty" from the American brands then dominating the market. Offering women a new approach to beauty, Petitjean seized on scientific discoveries of the time to develop Lancome skin care as well as makeup and perfumes expressing an elegance that was uniquely French but appealing to women worldwide. Petitjean understood the psychological power of beauty, and in his products encapsulated its promise of radiance, mystery, and romance.
