Traces the life and influence of the cosmetics innovator, his work for the Russian royal family, role in developing the images of leading Hollywood stars, and contributions to the establishment of the retail cosmetics industry.
The story of the makeup artist who changed the film industry—and the world of modern cosmetics. Includes photos. When Polish wigmaker and cosmetician Max Factor arrived in Los Angeles at the dawn of the motion picture industry, “make-up” had been associated only with stage performers and ladies of the oldest profession. Appalled by the garish paints worn by actors, Factor introduced the first “flexible” greasepaint for film in 1914. With a few careful brush strokes, a lot of innovation, and the kind of luck that can happen only in Hollywood, Max Factor changed the meaning of glamour. His innovations can be experienced in every tube of lipstick, palette of eye shadow, and bottle of nail lacquer used today. Join author Erika Thomas as she reveals the makeup guru's expert beauty tips and the story of how he created the most iconic golden-era looks that are as relevant today as they were nearly a century ago.
For most of the twentieth century, the name Max Factor has been synonymous with beauty, glamour, and style. Max Factor's Hollywood: Glamour, Movies, Make-Up goes behind the name and shows how a mild-mannered Russian immigrant became a legend by changing the faces of Hollywood- and the world.
Prepare to be a "MAZ"ed-you have never read anything like this before. In The MAZ Factor: "A Gutsy True Story to Change Your Life," Marylin Schirmer exposes her deepest, darkest secrets in light of the truths that changed her life and with the knowledge that these same truths can bring passion, vision, optimism and fulfillment to all of our lives as well. Marylin's life, from childhood and for the first thirty plus years, was a crushing saga of oppressive, abusive relationships and horrific events. The darkest hour comes just before the dawn, however, Marylin's true rags-to-riches story offers ample proof of how brightly the dawn can shine. Only after moving across Australia with her four children, and making a radical decision, did Marylin finally break free from such a doomed cycle-only then was she able to create the opposite cycle, one that will astound you. In her down-to-earth personality and style, Marylin expertly guides us along The MAZ Factor's tragic and yet ultimately inspiring journey, from desperation to transformation to finally turning the focus on ourselves and how to use our own magnificent hearts and minds to create our own cycle of fortune. In more ways than one, what appears to be a book about Marylin's story becomes a book about ours.

Noted British academic and journalist Alison Wolf offers a surprising and thoughtful study of the professional elite, and examines the causes—and limits—of women’s rise and the consequences of their difficult choices. The gender gap is closing. Today, for the first time in history, tens of millions of women are spending more time at the boardroom table than the kitchen table. These professional women are highly ambitious and highly educated, enjoying the same lifestyle prerogatives as their male counterparts. They are working longer and marrying later—if they marry at all. They are heading Fortune 500 companies and appearing on the covers of Forbes and Businessweek. They represent a special type of working woman—the kind who doesn’t just punch a clock for a paycheck, but derives self-worth and pleasure from wielding professional power. At the same time that the gender gap is narrowing, the gulf is widening among women themselves. While blockbuster books such as Lean In focus only on women in high pressure jobs, in reality there are four women in traditionally female roles for every Sheryl Sandberg. In this revealing and deeply intelligent book, Alison Wolf examines why more educated women work longer hours, why having children early is a good idea, and how feminism created a less equal world. Her ideas are sure to provoke and surprise, as she challenges much of what the liberal and conservative media consider to be women’s best interests.
