Fabergé (cosmetics)
Defunct brand of cosmetics / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Fabergé (French: [fabɛʁʒe]) is a brand name that was inspired by the House of Fabergé jewellery firm, which had been founded in 1842 in Russia. The name was used for various personal care products (including cosmetics) that were manufactured under the direction of Samuel Rubin (from the late 1930s to 1964), and then by George Barrie (from 1964 to 1984).[1] The Fabergé company was sold by Barrie in 1984, and was subsequently acquired by Unilever in 1989.[2]
