Mary Kay Advertising On Oprah - Targeting Cosmopolitan Set

When Debi Moore started selling Mary Kay cosmetics nearly three decades ago, she lugged around bags full of skin-care products into the living rooms of stay-at-home moms.

Now, her daughter, Taylor, wants to sell those products in Europe.

"I'm passionate about helping women feel great," said Taylor, 23, at a recent women's networking event Thursday night in Mooresville, N.C., where her mother, one of Mary Kay's top saleswomen in the nation, gave a speech. "Our generation has taken it by storm. We're starting a new image of Mary Kay."

Once famous for its pink-clad sales army, the Dallas company is trying to update its appearance -- and attract new customers at home and in foreign markets.

Mary Kay recently launched a multimillion-dollar ad campaign on Oprah Winfrey's talk show, targeting the young, cosmopolitan set.
