Background

Edith Rehnborg, wife of Nutrilite founder Carl Rehnborg, founded Edith Rehnborg Cosmetics in 1968, which later became Artistry.[2] In 1972, Nutrilite merged with Amway thereby giving Amway the controlling interest of the Artistry brand.[3] The brand expanded internationally to Australia, Hong Kong, Malaysia, France, the Netherlands, United Kingdom and West Germany.

In 1980, Artistry products were manufactured at Nutrilite in California and by 1995 they were also produced at the Amway China facility.[4] Over the years, Artistry expanded their product portfolio. As of 2000, the Artistry range included over 400 products.[5]

gollark: "AI" is not as far as I am aware actually good enough to make memes yet.
gollark: Hmm, so maybe if I make a bot which can somehow autogenerate memes, it can post those, and maybe use alts for investment commissions. The only problem is that autogenerating good memes is probably insanely hard.
gollark: I don't know how it works since the new bot is sadly not open source.
gollark: Alternatively, make two bots and drive up the price I guess?
gollark: *Someone* might invest.
