3.5 stars, I enjoyed the audiobook, but recommend reading the book if you want the author's note at the end with added input on her research into Estee Lauder. I didn't realize how hard she peddled to become the cosmetic company they are today, I admire her for her efforts in a time women had little luck of success in the workplace.
Gloria and Estee weren't the most likable characters and I got tired of hearing about the "Super Rich All Purpose Cream."
It was interesting to learn Estee is the reason behind all the 'Gifts with Purchase' we see today at the cosmetic counter.
