Our Purpose

Our Strategy & Model

Established in 1932, L’Oréal UK and Ireland is the leading beauty player in the market, with 30+ leading brands across cosmetics, skincare, haircare and fragrance.

We are the largest beauty player in the UK and Ireland, with our brands present in all retail channels including boutiques, department stores, grocery, hair salons, pharmacies, medispas, travel retail and e-commerce.

Our teams are committed to protecting the beauty of the planet through fighting climate change, respecting biodiversity and preserving natural resources. All our sites in the UK have been carbon neutral since 2017.

We are committed to being one of the UK and Ireland’s top employers, fostering a workplace where everyone feels welcome and valued as we build a company as diverse as the communities we are proud to be a part of.

At L’Oréal, we care for animal welfare and we do not test on animals. We are for beauty with no animal testing.

Since 1989, 14 years before the EU regulations required us to do so, we have not tested the safety of our products on animals.
Because we care about animal welfare, over 40 years ago, L’Oréal pioneered the development of human reconstructed skin that can be used to evaluate how cosmetic ingredients and products behave on human skin.
