In 1976, twin sisters Jean & Jane Ford; Indiana farm gals turned successful models & makeup Artists moved to San Francisco. To take on a totally new approach to beauty, guided by their mantra (Makeup doesn't have to be serious to look good).
They believe that laughter is the best cosmetic. And opened a tiny makeup shop in San Francisco's Mission District, The Face Place. In. 1977, the first bottle of (Rose Tint) aka benetint is sold to an exotic dancer. Benetint is a lip & cheek stain. It's also one of their award winning products. In 1989, they created their first catalog.
They have a fabulous & fast brow & beauty services. With instant solutions at Benefit Brow bars, Boutiques & Counters for brow waxing, lash application & makeuppers. I get my brows waxed at their Los Gatos Boutique. The statue is named Simone.
