We are celebrating our 90th birthday this month! Like many great love stories, our journey from fledgling beauty brand to global icon, began in Paris. Developed by visionary beauty therapist - Madame Jeanne Gatineau in 1932, our remarkable founder embarked upon her dream to create beauty products that would revolutionise modern skincare. She quickly became renowned within the world of skincare and her school of beauty opened in Paris in 1950. The demand for Gatineau's unique and innovative expertise led to the manufacture of products for home use and Gatineau, as we know it today, was born.
