Overview
Con el telón de fondo de la legendaria rivalidad entre dos pioneras del mundo de la belleza, Helena Rubinstein y Elizabeth Arden, una novela llena de glamour y romanticismo de la autora best seller alemana Corina Bomann.
Berlín, 1926. Sophia solo tiene veinte años, pero su vida ya parece haberse hecho pedazos: su primer amor ha terminado en escándalo, su familia no quiere verla y ella ha tenido que abandonar sus estudios de química en la universidad. Tras viajar a París para empezar de cero, un día se encuentra frente al deslumbrante escaparate del nuevo salón de Helena Rubinstein, una ambiciosa empresaria cuyo nombre está en boca de todas las damas parisinas. Sophia tiene entonces una revelación: intentará crear una crema prodigiosa que deslumbre a madame Rubinstein y la convenza de admitirla en su imperio de la belleza.
Impresionada por el talento de Sophia, Helena decide ofrecerle un empleo, siempre que esté dispuesta a seguirla a su oficina de Nueva York y a volcarse totalmente en el trabajo. Sophia se verá así envuelta en el gran proyecto de crear nuevos y revolucionarios cosméticos para Helena Rubinstein en su feroz competencia con su rival Elizabeth Arden. Pero Nueva York también está llena de tentaciones y Sophia, que creía haber terminado con los hombres, se encontrará trabajando con Darren O'Connor, un diseñador de mirada magnética que podría hacer tambalear el solemne pacto de fidelidad hecho con Helena...
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
With the legendary rivalry between two beauty pioneers, Helena Rubinstein and Elizabeth Arden, as the background, this is a glamorous and romantic novel by best-selling German author Corina Bomann.
Berlin, 1926. Sophia is only twenty years old, but her life already seems to have fallen apart: her first love has ended in a scandal, her family does not want to see her, and she has had to abandon her Chemistry studies at college. After traveling to Paris to start from scratch, one day she finds herself in front of the dazzling window of the new salon by Helena Rubinstein, an ambitious businesswoman whose name is on the lips of every Parisian lady. Then, Sophia has a revelation: she will create a prodigious cream that dazzles Madame Rubinstein, so she welcomes her into her beauty empire.
Impressed by Sophia's talent, Helena decides to offer her a job if she is willing to follow her to the New York office and commit herself to work. Sophia will thus be involved in the great project of creating new and revolutionary cosmetics for Helena Rubinstein to compete with her rival Elizabeth Arden. But New York is also full of temptations and Sophia --who thought she was done with men-- will find herself working with Darren O'Connor, a designer with a magnetic gaze who could compromise the pact of fidelity that she made to Helena...
