...colors or designs; that is done by Cosmetic and Fragrance President Paul Woolard and executives grouped into seven "houses," which are practically minicompanies, each concentrating on a particular price range and type of customer. But Bergerac must approve all major changes, and he is an exacting judge with an eye for detail. The model in the Jontue ads is pictured leading a white horse; to Outdoorsman Bergerac the first horse that subordinates showed him looked like a sway-backed plow dragger. The boss bought his admen a book on horses and insisted that they study it to pick a more...
Hype and hoopla apart, is there any difference between expensive and popular-priced cosmetics? Yes, there is some. High-priced eye shadow may contain fish scales for extra shine; prestige perfumes have more natural essential oils and fewer synthetic ones than cheaper scents. But Francis Le Cates Jr., a cosmetics analyst at Donaldson, Lufkin & Jenrette, estimates that on average only 80 of the cosmetics sales dollar goes to pay for ingredients. The extra cost of the better ones used in prestige products comes nowhere near accounting for the difference in selling price. The real difference is in fancier packaging, splashier...
...Newsman John Chancellor is usually in the public eye with his co-anchor David Brinkley, but he gamely agreed to wing it with a macaw named Bob. The occasion was a fund-raising luncheon for the New York Zoological Society, which is dedicated to protecting endangered species and displaying animals in natural environments.

Admirers, and the uninitiated, can sate themselves by exploring this brilliant full-length collection. The Art of Glen Loates by Paul Duval (Cerebrus/Prentice-Hall; unpaginated; $35) traces the evolution of the artist's unique style and may inspire some readers to emulate his practice of stalking the wilds to get close to his subjects. But not too close. One of Loates' grizzly bears is lifelike enough...
...montage, solarization and time lapse. The resulting pictures are never less than colorful, but they seem to compete with their human subjects rather than record them. Yet photography in the right hands can bring something to dance as well, and Migdoll is at his best when he gives the eye permanent images that would otherwise have disappeared in a blur. Two photographs of Mikhail Baryshnikov, all intense concentration and soaring energy, are themselves classics and more than worth the reasonable price of this book...
