About the book
The young Jewish woman Josiah Herzenstein had to change her name to Josephine and flee from her native Poland to Melbourne, Australia. From nothing, she started a small cosmetics business, later turning it into a real beauty empire. Canadian immigrant Constance Gardiner pioneered marketing strategies in the cosmetics world and hired a black woman, CeCe Lopez, to her store, who would go down in history as the creator of the hair straightener. Each step of Constance and Josephine gradually brings them closer to each other. But it is not about partnership. Against the background of the creation of new lines of cosmetics and marketing innovations, McCarthyism, turbulent changes in the big world and secret cultures of forbidden clubs, compliments and envy, these two women will compete for the title of queen of cosmetics. And they know very well that victory, like beauty, requires sacrifices.
