“Poppy King is the Henry Ford of lipsticks and she shows you how to be a picky entrepreneur without losing your flossy-flossy.”
—Simon Doonan, author of Eccentric Glamour

Poppy King started her own lipstick brand after high school, as she could not find the exact color she wanted. The idea was that simple. By the time she was 23 years old, Poppy King was a self made millionaire, a household name and awarded the honor of Young Australian of the Year. All of this from someone who graduated high school with nothing more than a million different excuses to get out of phys-ed, and very average grades. Lessons of a Lipstick Queen offers Poppy King’s insight and experience with both the emotional and practical aspects of starting a business. Poppy wants you to learn from her successes, as well as her mistakes. She motivates the reader to reach the potential we all possess within, as she knows all it takes is one good idea. One good idea changed her life, and one can change yours too.
