Combining science and luxury

Audrey Gueniche is the international scientific director of historic L’Oréal luxury beauty brand Helena Rubinstein. In conversation with editor Tim Probert, Audrey, a Parisian with more than three decades of experience with L’Oréal, shares her insight on ‘hero’ ingredients and wider beauty trends

Tim Probert (TP): Tell me a little bit about your background in beauty and personal care with L'Oréal.

Audrey Gueniche (AG): I am a doctor in pharmacy and I also have a PhD in skin biology. Even as a child, fascinated by biology, my dream was to take care of the skin. My studies allowed me to become a scientist, and then join L'Oréal in 1995.

I now have over three decades of research and innovation experience with L'Oréal over lots of different areas, not just in topical applications, but also in beauty supplements for skin, hair and scalp.
