Estee Lauder- "If I believe in something, I sell it, and I sell it hard."
I was a woman with a mission and single-minded in the pursuit of my dream.

If you don’t sell, it’s not the product that’s wrong, it’s you.

Touch a face. Touch a hand. Say, “This is for you, this is what I want you to wear.”

When you stop talking, you’ve lost your customer. When you turn your back, you’ve lost her.

New generations want to buy their own brands … They don’t necessarily want to buy a brand that’s been around for a long time.

Our existing brands have a fairly strong and wide distribution in the stores that they are already sold. We were excited about the possibility of working with Kohl’s to create new brands for their customers.

Beauty is an attitude. There’s no secret. Why are all brides beautiful? Because on their wedding day they care about how they look. There are no ugly women – only women who don’t care or who don’t believe they’re attractive.
Estee Lauder
I didn’t get there by wishing for it or hoping for it, but by working for it.

In a perfect world, we’d all be judged on the sweetness of our souls. But in our less than perfect world, the woman who looks pretty has a distinct advantage and, usually, the last word.
Estee Lauder
I never dreamed about success. I worked for it.
Estee Lauder
You may have great inner resources, but they don’t show up as confidence when you don’t feel pretty.
Estee Lauder
People are more apt to believe you and like you when you know you look fine. And when the world approves, self-respect is just a little easier.
Estee Lauder
Both were European in every straight-laced way and I desperately wanted to be 100 percent American.
Estee Lauder
I recognized in my Uncle John my true path…I watched and learned.
