It's been 50 years ago this December since the Maybelline Co. sold to Plough Inc. It changed all of our lives in ways that we never expected. We were all kids and had the fun of going through the amazing experience together. You can read more about it in my memoir, The Maybelline Story and in my new book coming out next year. Stay tuned for more on that in 2018.
