Our History
From the age of 14, Caroline South had fixed her heart on a career in Beauty and took every opportunity to hone her skills to achieve her goals.
Following a career as a make-up artist, national sales manager with Clarins, and a P&C buyer with Allders International the only natural progression was to start her own business.
Working from home and armed with an Amstrad computer, a fax machine, and a garden table for a desk, Caroline South launched her company and represented her first brand, Escada Beaute in 1991 during a time of political and economic uncertainty and testing times for the travel retail industry.
