This idea of body' aesthetics becomes a business resource transformed into aesthetic-corporal capital, a key component of the Brazilian beauty business filiere. Empirically, this research is based on qualitative elements, in particular 25 interviews with Brazilian women entrepreneurs of the beauty filiere working in Portugal, collected for the project BELTS-W (Brazilian Entrepreneurial Links and Transnational Strategies - Women).
