Why Are All the A-List Actresses from the ’90s Getting Into the Beauty Biz?

by

It used to be that when an actress’s career stalled or she got a bit past her prime, she’d turn to the theater to re-establish herself as a “serious” actress. Now it seems like Hollywood leading ladies are running to the beauty industry to up their cred and leave a legacy.
