Violette is elated about the new role, saying : "I’m so happy to be joining an iconic House with such a rich heritage, where I can pass Guerlain’s values in makeup on to a new generation and share it with those who, no matter their gender, celebrate beauty today and will celebrate it tomorrow. As
a pioneer, the Guerlain House must show commitment by becoming
environmentally involved and engaging with femininity in broad and
diverse way."
She has collaborated with major houses since the beginning of her career (namely with Dior as a makeup designer and more recently with Estée Lauder, where she held the post of global beauty director at just 33 years old.)
Her portfolio is filled with thousands of images from collaborations with renowned magazines including Vogue, Harper’s Bazaar, W Magazine, T Magazine, Dazed, Teen Vogue and Elle. And while fashion photography may be her playground of choice, she knows better than anyone else that makeup is nothing if not the art of bringing out the beauty in each and every one of us. With many followers across social media (namely 400k followers on Instagram) she created her own Violette_fr YouTube channel six years ago to share makeup tutorials and beauty snapshots. She also launched her own line of makeup in April 2021 named VIOLETTE_FR.
"Just like Guerlain, I think of art as an inexhaustible source of inspiration," she added. "I’m used to saying that art is the love of my life."
