Early promotional campaign for Fusion Cosmetics.

Fusion Cosmetics is a fictional business from the ABC daytime drama All My Children.

History

Plot

Fusion Cosmetics is founded when Greenlee Smythe decides to partner up with Kendall Hart to create a cosmetics company that will rival Kendall's mother Erica Kane's company, Enchantment Enterprises, and eventually overthrow Erica from the throne of Queen of the cosmetics industry. Its roots begin when Greenlee, Kendall, Mia Saunders, and Simone Torres make Fusion's first product (a lip color) in Kendall's kitchen. After a few failed attempts, the girls finally come up with a formula that works. From there, the girls, soon to be named the "Fab Four", launch their company, Fusion Cosmetics, which sells at retailers nationwide. Rivals of Fusions Cosmetics include Enchantment Enterprises founded by Erica and Revlon/Giavanna Cosmetics. Fusion Cosmetics is located on 500 Front Street, Pine Valley, PA. In 2006, Fusion Cosmetics spawns a nightclub/bar called ConFusion. Fusion Cosmetics eventually merges with Enchantment when Erica gives her eldest daughter, Kendall, all of her Enchantment stock and names her as successor CEO of Enchantment. Fusion Cosmetics is also partially owned by Cambias Industries (a large conglomerate). Greenlee returns to work, telling the crew that Babe Carey Chandler's shares (which Greenlee sold to get back at Kendall) are now hers again, and that she is the majority stockholder and the boss. Zach retaliates and gives Kendall all of the Fusion shares that Cambias Industries holds. The two women become equal partners once more.

Real-life production

In 2004, ABC and All My Children launched a real life Fusion Cosmetics line for fans of the soap opera. The first fragrance released was Enchantment, Erica Kane's company. Months later, when Fusion's new spring line debuted, so did its fragrance for real. Both fragrances are available at Wal-Mart and online at ABC. Of this, The A.V. Club relayed a statement: "The Enchantment perfume successfully seeped through the television screen and onto Wal-Mart shelves nationwide." Fusion Cosmetics were also sold on the Home Shopping Network.
