Life

In 1947 she began training as a beautician in Dresden , motivated by the use of herbs on her own problematic skin.

After completing her training, she sold natural cosmetic products all over Germany. In 1958, she and her husband Walter Lindner fled to Calw in West Germany, where they founded the Börlind company with Hermann Börner in 1959. Annemarie Lindner was managing director until 1985.

Annemarie Lindner was the first German beautician to develop a natural cosmetic care series for various skin types . Her credo was: "What I can't eat, I don't put on my skin!"

In 2010 the Nagold Home Economics School was renamed the Annemarie Lindner School . The namesake should serve as a role model and create a new identification for the school.
