Jacques Courtin

Clarins is a global leader in luxury skincare and cosmetics, renowned for its pioneering fusion of science and nature. Founded in Paris in 1954 by Jacques Courtin‑Clarins, Clarins revolutionized the beauty industry by being the first company to add plant extracts to skincare for their unique benefits. It's been the number one luxury skincare brand in Europe since 1990, and its flagship Double Serum is ranked the bestselling serum worldwide, with one bottle sold every three seconds. Clarins develops, manufactures, and markets skincare and make-up with products crafted exclusively in France and operates in the spa sector in nearly 150 countries. The company's products are sold both online and at high-end department stores and retailers. Clarins owns numerous brands including its eponymous brand Clarins, myBlend, ILIA Beauty, and was a major player in the fragrance industry through the Clarins Fragrance Group until it sold its fragrance division to L'Oréal in 2020. Clarins also held a 23.3% stake in L'Occitane en Provence between 1994 and 2011.
