We are a group of cosmetic scientists who understand what the chemicals used in cosmetics really do, how products are tested, and what all the advertising means.

Van Cleep and Arpels is noted for its gem encrusted items including lipstick holders. The $215,000 perfume referenced in the quiz has a cost that can be attributed to the "Baccarat crystal bottle that has five-carat white diamonds on it and is decorated with an 18 carat-gold collar." and its perceived rarity: only 10 made with only 5 for sale. I assume Beauty Brains wants to determine if we can find the reference for a moisturizer or nail polish that is extraordinarily expensive sans container! Then again a story in 2003 entitled "FAA Proposes $70,000 Penalty Against Queen Nail & Beauty Supplies, Inc for Hazmat Violations" involves by deductive reasoning "nail polish". So I'll vote for the $2000 moisturizer! The only reason this quiz will stump anyone is its deceptive nature! Van Cleep and Arpels is noted for its gem encrusted items including lipstick holders.
