About Gatineau
Gatineau’s Story began in Paris over 90 years ago with a visionary beauty therapist, Madame Jeanne Gatineau. A woman with a true passion for beauty, she set out to provide revolutionary, results-driven skincare solutions for women.
She opened her first salon in 1932 and immediately began to develop her own luxury skincare products to accompany her avant-garde treatment techniques. Through her collaboration with experienced dermatologists and biochemists she quickly became renowned as an authority within the world of skincare. The demand for Gatineau’s unique and innovative expertise led to the manufacture of products for home use, and Gatineau, as we know it today, was born.
We’re trusted for our effective skincare solutions, harnessing the power of natural ingredients and cutting-edge biotechnology to create uncompromising, clinically proven formulations for face and body. We use power-packed active ingredients to ensure that our skincare delivers visible results. With over 90 years of heritage and a dedication to empowering women, we’re committed to exceeding your expectations and creating skincare you can trust.
At Gatineau, we believe ageing is a privilege. We’re committed to providing you with the products you need to feel confident in your skin, as it changes. So many factors can affect your skin, be they hormones, fatigue, environment, stress or age (to name but a few). We’re committed to formulating the highest-quality products to give you complete skin confidence, every day.

Proud Heritage
While embracing pioneering advancements in skincare technology, we have stayed fiercely loyal to the timeless values which originally inspired Jeanne Gatineau nearly 100 years ago. Our founder’s natural and uncompromising passion for quality remains our central philosophy. At the same time we have evolved and innovated, setting and driving standards, and remaining at the forefront of responsible skincare innovation.
Impactful Values
At Gatineau we aim to be force for good, putting our principles into action to make a positive difference. Current projects include supporting the Get Lippy campaign in collaboration with the Eve Appeal. As a majority-female team, we recognise the importance of its work delivering inclusive support and education on women’s health. Throughout May, we contributed 20% of sales from our Golden Glow 200ml to the Eve Appeal and several of the team will be taking part in a nighttime trek up Snowdon to raise even more for this brilliant and inspiring initiative.
Environmental Responsibility
We recognise our role within both the global environment and our local communities. We see this as an ongoing journey where continuous improvement and revision of goals are essential. It’s not enough to limit our negative impact; we must maximise our positive influence. This includes: more ethical and sustainable sourcing, improving the recyclability of our packaging and making more conscious decisions in every element of our activity. As such we’re committed to becoming a certified B Corporation, a significant milestone in our journey to greater social and environmental accountability. At Gatineau, how we conduct our business is as important as the results we achieve.
