Bobbi Brown’s venture into cosmetics was born out of a frustration with existing make-up brands

Bobbi Brown fell in love with make-up as a young girl, watching her mother getting ready to go out. “I used to watch her put make-up on and I used to love it, and then I would put it on myself,” she says. But it was not until many years later, as a university student, that she realised she wanted to work with cosmetics.
