I think talented people are priceless. And I think people that are knowledgeable and experienced - and I think there's a balance of new talent and experience, which makes, I think, Estee Lauder really special.

In terms of pots and pans, I just use the basics - Im not a snob like that.

When I took the job as Estée Lauder's creative director, the first thing I did was go into the archives! I love taking our heritage and making it modern.

I love market research because you really have an idea of what your consumers are looking for.

I love laugh lines. It means you've had a good life.

My mom has always been kind of my backbone. She keeps me strong. She is a mother, a friend. She is really everything to me.

People love buying into a lifestyle and an overall concept. So when they buy a shell-colored lip gloss, they can also buy shells for their house, as well as sunglasses and [items in] other categories [in that shade] to create one consistent image.
