The democratization of beauty

When we were founded 20 years ago, we wanted to give all women access to decorative cosmetics. To offer the development of a high-quality product in an appealing package at the lowest possible price - that was our goal, which we have consistently pursued ever since. Our mission? Make everyone feel more beautiful! We achieve this with our strong brands such as essence and Catrice, which to this day shape and help shape the international cosmetics market in around 80 countries.

"My goal was to make all feel more beautiful with the help of make-up. And to achieve this, I wanted to offer high-quality and innovative cosmetic products at the best possible price-performance ratio. Democratize beauty, so to speak."
 Christina Oster-Daum, President & Founder
