<p>By GINIA BELLAFANTE

<p> Her image belies her essence. Georgette Mosbacher may appear
to be just a dye-job socialite, but she is in fact a woman of
substance, a woman who has drawn solely on confidence and an
unflappable will to rise above an impoverished upbringing. Her
new book says so. In Feminine Force, Georgette, cosmetics impresario
and wife of ex-Commerce Secretary Robert Mosbacher, instructs
women--Cosmo-magazine style--on how they too can enrich
their lives. Readers are encouraged to start their own businesses
just the way Georgette did when she organized a leveraged buyout
of a skin-care empire that manufactured a cream derived from
the placenta of black mountain sheep. Other advice focuses on
attracting the opposite sex. "What really interests men," writes
the twice-divorced Georgette, "are these two little words, `yes,
now.'" But men aren't an essential ingredient in the happiness
pie. Included in her list of Feminine Force Principles is this
affirmation: "I can buy my own crystal and china and feather
my own nest--with or without a man."
