Both types of powder were available in a wide variety of Coty fragrances. Coty also put the Air Spun powder into a new larger box with a plastic base and a full-sized window. The powder came in twelve shades including Naturel, Rachel No. 1, Rachel No 2, Rose No. 1, Rose No. 2, Ocre, Soleil dāOr, Perle Rose, Rachel NacrĆ© and Gitane to which, in 1937, Coty added MiBlonde and Brunat shades for blondes and brunettes respectively.Air Spun powder could be held on with Foundation Cream or Skin Lotion but in 1938 Coty introduced a Foundation Lotion in two shades: Natural, for fair skin; and Gitane, for brunette skins or as a base for suntan make-up. The Gitane shade of Foundation Lotion, along with products such as Cotytan and Coty Suntan Lotion, helped Coty cater for those women who followed the suntanning craze that started in the 1920. fter taking over the rotunda, Brooks made a number of changes to the exterior of the building. The original plans for the structure had it topped off with a handle, which during construction became a large gold ball. After the arrangement with Coty was reached, this was replaced by an illuminated representation of a Coty Air-Spun powder.The Coty name and coat of arms was also added to the main entrance and the rotunda was then referred to by Coty as the Maison Coty (House of Coty) or the āCharm Center of the Worldās Fairā. Other exhibitors housed in the building were situated in an area that used the original competition name, āVanity Fairā.Coty also made changes to the rotunda interior. Some features of the central atrium ā the Hall of Perfumes ā were redecorated by the interior designer Dorothy Draper [1889-1969]. These included removing a large abstract statue by Deskey and the installation of a large a Fountain of Beauty, designed in Draperās signature style of āModern Baroqueā. Coty displays, exhibits and shops were then set in place around the circumference of the atrium.Large posters of Coty products were arranged prominently on the walls of the Hall of Perfumes. These advertised the companyās perfumes, Air Spun loose and compact face powders, Air Spun rouge, and Sub-Deb lipsticks and rouge. The small theatre included in the original plans was used by Coty to screen films such as āSymphonies in Fragranceā and to give the occasional lecture.

Coty air-powered microniser at the Worldās Fair.The New York Worldās Fair opened April 30, 1939. Although 25 million visited the fair that year attendances were well short of the 50 million needed to repay investors so it was decided to extend the exposition for an additional year to help recover costs.
