Hard economic times call for cutting back on life's little luxuries, but one company says its customers are doing plenty of feel good spending.
Mary Kay has been around since the 1960s selling skin care products and make up to women. The company says even in tough economic times women still want to feel good about themselves.
"This is a feel good business that we're in. It's kind of economy proof and a woman will buy a new lipstick and cut down on the prime beef that she was going to get at the grocery store because it makes her feel good and it's something she can purchase for herself," said Lonnie Dennis of Mary Kay Cosmetics.
