Elizabeth Arden and Helena Rubinstein each founded empires built on grit and determination, and yet they became locked in a feud spanning three continents, two world wars, and the Great Depression. Brought up in poverty, Canadian-born Elizabeth Arden changed popular opinion, persuading women from all walks of life to buy skincare products that promised them youth and beauty. Helena Rubenstein left her native Poland, and launched her company with scientific claims about her miracle creams made with anti-ageing herbs. And when it came to business, nothing was off-limits: poaching each other's employees, copying each other's products, planting spies, hiring ex-husbands, and one-upping each other every chance they had. This was a rivalry from which there was no surrender! And through it all were two women, bold, brazen, and determined to succeed, no matter the personal cost. 541 $d 20230918. 600 1 $a Arden, Elizabeth, $d 1878-1966 $v Fiction. 600 1 $a Rubinstein, Helena, $d 1870-1965 $v Fiction. 651 $a New York (N.Y) $x Fiction. $y 1898-1951 $x Fiction. 655 7 $a Historical fiction. $2 fast 655 7 $a Audiobooks. $2 fast 700 $a Flanagan, Lisa, $e narrator. 710 $a Axis 360 (Digital media service). 941 $a 1 952 $l SHPC094 $d 20231019031637.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=639A65446E4511EEB99592A929ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
