Clarins Precious launch
Clarins continues to expand into new territories with the launch of its first luxury skincare line, Clarins Precious.
Acquisition of our second Domaine Clarins
The Clarins Group acquires its second Domaine Clarins, a vast natural area of 115 hectares located near Nimes, France – that will become a production and processing site for plants, according to the standards of regenerative agriculture and a laboratory for studying and researching new plant species.
In 2024, Clarins celebrates 70 years of success. From a modest beauty institute to a European leader in premium skincare, we’ve stayed true to our founding philosophy of listening, understanding, and constant improvement. This journey highlights our entrepreneurial spirit and commitment to responsible beauty, guiding us for seven decades at the forefront of beauty.

Like father like son
Christian Courtin joins the family business as head of exports, helping to distribute Clarins products and skincare methods to 130 countries.
