Tribute to Mrs Liliane Bettencourt

Mrs Liliane Bettencourt passed away on 21 September 2017.

Throughout her life, she lived and breathed L’Oréal. She always considered herself the custodian of her father’s work and proved to be a source of determined and unfailing support for the company.

Liliane Bettencourt was eager, determined and proud to see L’Oréal extend its influence worldwide. As François Dalle once said, she had inherited from her father an ardent “desire to see L’Oréal grow”. Discreet, astute, and kind-hearted, a person of sound judgment yet very modern in her thinking, Liliane Bettencourt shared with the Group’s employees this fabulous adventure, every step of the way.
