Last week's trivia answer

Founded in 1932 to sell nail enamel, I'm a titan in cosmetics, skin care, fragrance and personal care. My brands — such as Almay, ColorStay, New Complexion, Flex, Flair, Fire & Ice, Jean Nate, Ciara, Enjoli, Jontue and Ultima II — are known worldwide. During World War II, I made first-aid kits and dye markers for the Navy. Later, I introduced manicure and pedicure tools. Charlie, introduced in 1973, quickly became the world's top fragrance. In the 1990s, I became the No. 1 brand in mass color cosmetics. Based in Manhattan, I rake in $1.3 billion annually. Who am I?
