"I started in cosmetics two days after I finished high school." Adrien Arpel says, with her trademark smile. "I was 17 years old and had $400 in babysitting money as my start-up capital." In the four decades since, Arpel became one of the world's best-known names in cosmetics, building an empire as her products sold in the world's finest department stores. Arpel not only created a huge, publicly traded cosmetics company under her own name, she also authored three international best-selling beauty books, including the wildly popular How to Look 10 Years Younger. But it was just more than a decade ago that Arpel made one of her most profitable decisions―becoming involved with the Home Shopping Network (HSN). In her 11 years of selling product during her three-hour events on the St. Petersburg, Fla.-based network, Arpel has garnered more than $500 million in total sales, becoming far and away HSN's leading cosmetics and skin care vendor.
