A poor immigrant from Poland, Rubinstein opened her first beauty salon in Melbourne, Australia, in 1903. She sold pots of homemade face cream. The demand was great, and Helena's marketing skills were amazing. Within two years, she was rich. By 1915, she was a millionaire.
My information comes from the book Ugly Beauty by Ruth Brandon. I find it endlessly fascinating that beauty helps women have a profession or make a career! Beauty is a woman's business!
Enjoy the beauty and the Friday! xxx
