From WikiMD's Wellness Encyclopedia

Garnier is a mass market cosmetics brand of French cosmetics company L'Oréal. It produces hair care and skin care products.

History[edit | edit source]

The company started as Laboratoires Garnier in 1904 by French creator Alfred Amour Garnier, through the launch of his first patented plant-based hair lotion, La Lotion Garnier. In the 1930s, Garnier was an early producer of sun-care items and the first to make a permanent home hair color in 1960. It was acquired by L'Oréal in the 1970s.

Products[edit | edit source]

Garnier offers a wide variety of beauty products through its well-known and worldwide branches. These range from hair care, color & styling products, to skincare products. Some of the popular lines include:

  • Garnier Fructis: A hair care line debuted in 2002. It includes shampoos, conditioners, and hair treatments.
  • Garnier Nutrisse: This is Garnier's hair color line. It offers permanent and semi-permanent hair color products.
  • Garnier SkinActive: This line focuses on skin care products like cleansers, moisturizers, and treatments.

Sustainability[edit | edit source]

Garnier is committed to sustainable sourcing, reduced environmental impact, and the use of renewable raw materials in its products. In 2015, Garnier announced a partnership with TerraCycle to promote recycling of personal care products.
