L’Oréal Paris’ message is a call for women to believe in their self-worth and recognize their innate value both as women and as individuals. To spread the word more powerfully than ever before, the brand has enlisted the help of its ambassadors. In testimonials, they talk about how the tagline’s words have empowered them.

YSL Beauty's new hybrid makeup and skincare range, Nu, made in Caudry plant in France, has received Cradle to Cradle Certified® Silver. As the most ambitious and actionable global standard for products that enable a healthy, equitable and sustainable future, this is the first time that a line of made-in-France beauty products has received this rigorous certification. Additionally, this important recognition reflects the brand's values when it comes to sustainability and its long-standing commitment to developing products in a way that limits their impact on the environment, from the design stage, to manufacturing through to the end of the product's life. Through its ongoing commitment to its sustainable practices, the brand aims to achieve Gold level certification in the coming years.

This recognition aligns with the Group’s efforts to meet its responsibility and sustainability objectives.

Standing up for the environment includes small everyday actions. To support consumers on their journey towards more sustainable and responsible choices, Garnier is repeating its “One Green Step” campaign. The idea is to encourage people to share the steps they are taking day-to-day to help the environment. The campaign is rooted in the brand’s commitments and its determination to promote Green Beauty that is accessible to everyone.
