UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS





			

	The following unaudited pro forma condensed financial
statements give effect to the acquisition of Babyliss, as though
the acquisition occurred on January 1, 1994 in the case of
income statement data and on December 31, 1994 in the case of
balance sheet data.



	The condensed historical financial statement data of the
Company and Babyliss as of and for the year ended December 31,
1994 are derived from the audited financial statements of the
Company and Babyliss (included elsewhere herein for Babyliss)
and should be read in conjunction with those audited financial
statements.  In the case of the historical financial statements
of Babyliss, such financial statements appear in local currency
(French Francs) and were prepared using accounting principles
generally accepted in France, as adjusted to amounts which would
have been reported under generally accepted accounting
principles in the United States (although such adjustments were
not material).  Such financial statements were translated into
U.S. dollars in accordance with the standards established by
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No 52 - Foreign
Currency Translation.



	These pro forma  condensed financial statements are presented
for illustrative purposes only and, therefore, are not
necessarily indicative of the operating results or financial
position that might have been achieved had the acquisition of
Babyliss,  actually occurred on January 1, 1994 and December 31,
1994, respectively, nor are they necessarily indicative of
operating results and financial position which may occur in the
future.



	The acquisition of Babyliss has been accounted for as a
"purchase" transaction with the purchase price allocated to the
estimated fair value of the assets acquired and the liabilities
assumed.  The excess of the purchase price over the estimated
fair value of the net assets acquired is allocated to goodwill,
which is amortized over 30 years.  The allocation of the
purchase price and the estimated fair value of assets and
liabilities is based upon preliminary estimates of the Company's
management using the most recent information available and is
subject to adjustment when the final allocation is made using
appraisals and other information not presently available. 
However, the Company's management doe not believe the final
purchase price allocation will be materially different from the
estimates used herein.

	INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT







	To the Shareholders of

		THE BABYLISS AND CRISTAL COMPANIES



		We have audited the combined balance sheet of the Babyliss and
Cristal Companies as of

	December 31, 1994 and the combined statement of income for the
year then ended.  These financial

	statements are the responsibility of the Babyliss and Cristal
Companies management.  Our responsibility

	is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audit.



		We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards
generally accepted in France which do

	not materially differ from auditing standards generally
accepted in the United States.  Those standard require

	that we plan and perform an audit to obtain reasonable
assurance whether the financial statements are free of 

	material misstatement.   An audit includes examining, on a test
basis, evidence supporting the amounts and

	disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also
includes assessing the account principles used and

	significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating
the overall financial statement presentation.



		In our opinion, these combined financial statements present
fairly, in all material respects, the

	financial position of the Babyliss and Cristal Companies at
December 31, 1994, and the results of its

	operations for the year ended in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in France.

	1.  ACCOUNTING POLICIES, VALUATION METHODS AND COMBINATION
AND				 CONSOLIDATION POLICIES  			



	1.1 COMBINATION AND CONSOLIDATION POLICIES  	



		  All companies in which the BaByliss S.A. holds a
participating interest (direct or indirect) of more than 		50%
or companies in which BaByliss S.A. has the majority of the
voting rights (direct or indirect) have been 		consolidated
using the full consolidation method. All significant
inter-company accounts and transactions have 		been eliminated. 

   

		 The combined financial statements of the BaByliss and Cristal
Companies include the consolidated financial 		statements of
BaByliss S.A. and the consolidated financial statements of
Cristal S.A. The combined financial 		statements have been
prepared as a result of the stockholders' common ownership of
these entities as a result		of the acquisition of the shares of
BaByliss S.A. and Cristal S.A., as from February 18, 1995 by the
American 		Company, Conair Corporation (see footnote 8). In
particular, in order to present the total investment of Conair
on 		a combined basis in BaByliss S.A. and Cristal S.A., the
stockholders' current account of Cristal S.A. (21,951 KF)
		purchased by Conair as from February 18, 1995 (see footnote 8)
has been eliminated in the attached combined 		balance sheet as
of December 31, 1994.

    

		 All amounts in these financial statements have been expressed
in thousands of French francs (1,000 FF		 or KF) unless
indicated otherwise. 																

		 All companies included in the consolidation and combination
have a twelve month period ending 		December 31, 1994. 



		 Goodwill arising on various acquisitions has been recorded as
goodwill in the balance sheet, and is being 		amortized over a
period of five to twenty years, except for the goodwill on the
acquisition of the Faco shares, which 	has been capitalized and
which is not being depreciated. This is justified by the value
of the intangible elements of 		Faco, such as "Know How" and
patent rights. 

		

		The financial statements of foreign subsidiaries included in
the consolidation and comination have been 		translated to
French francs using the year-end closing rate method. The
resulting exchange difference on the 		opening equity is
excluded from net income and is included in a separate component
of Stockholders' Equity. The 		exchange rates used were as
follows:                     

											                                     DEC. 31, 1994   
                                                    			Belgian
franc      										 0.1680									Pound sterling    									
	 8.3500 									German mark       									 3.4500
									Swiss franc      										 4.0800 									Spanish
peseta  									        0.0406 									Dutch guilder      
									 3.0800     						

		The closing rate method has been consistently applied in the
past and the impact on the translation of 		opening
stockholders' equity amounts to 268 KF. 													

	 1.2 ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND VALUATION METHODS    									

		 The financial statements have been prepared in accordance
with accounting principles generally accepted in 		France.      
                                   			







		Property, plant and equipment is depreciated over the
following useful lives, computed primarily on the
		straight-line method, which has been consistently applied in
the past:  									

			Buildings  								 20 to 25 years 										Commercial
fittings    					   5 to 10 years										Plant and machinery  
 					   3 to  5 years 										Vehicles    								   3 to  5
years 										Office equipment    						   3 to 10 years
										Office furniture   						   3 to 10 years    	



		 Inventory is carried at the lower of cost, with cost
determined on a weighted average historical cost,		 or its net
realizable value.  



		 Deferred taxation is calculated using the liability method,
however deferred tax assets on recoverable losses 		and on
deferred depreciation have not been taken into account.    



 		  Revenues are recognised when the sale is consummated which
coincides with the shipments of goods.    		

		 Gains and losses arising from the Revenues are recognised
when the sale is consummated which coincides 		with the
shipments of goods.
