November 28, 2018, New York, NY — Repêchage® CEO and Founder Lydia Sarfati was a guest speaker at the 100 Years of Polish Women’s Achievements event, organized by the Consulate General of the Republic of Poland in New York and the Polish and American Women Entrepreneurs Association of New York. Top Polish female executives and entrepreneurs gathered to share best practices in international business and celebrate 100 years of Polish Women’s voting rights and their accomplishments.
Sarfati shared her inspiring story with the audience. The daughter of Holocaust and Russian prison camp survivors, Sarfati’s family left Poland in the 1960’s, originally living in Rome, Italy until moving to the United States in 1970. Sarfati worked her way up from being a makeup consultant to earning her esthetician’s license and working as an NYC esthetician. After receiving major media attention for her work, Sarfati became a star in the beauty industry. She opened her own spa in 1977 and eventually launched her own international professional skin care line, Repêchage®, in 1980. Repêchage® is now available in 45 countries, and is manufactured in Sarfati’s 50,000 square foot, ISO 9001: 2015 certified facility in Secaucus, NJ, and recently received the 2018 ACG NJ Corporate Growth Award. Throughout her career, Sarfati has been featured in major media such as Vogue, InStyle, Glamour, Elle, Allure, and the New York Times as well as on CNN, CBS, and FOX. She is the developer of the world-renowned Repêchage® Four-Layer Facial®, what Cosmopolitan UK has called “the best facial of the century.”
In sharing her story, Sarfati reminded others how important it is for women to empower each other. “We are able to empower women all over the world to be successful. It is my personal goal to provide women with the education, knowledge and know-how to help them reach the sky – because the sky’s the limit.”
