Chrystelle Lannoy

The career of Chrystelle Lannoy, has been shaped by two major interests . . . beauty and gemstones.

A love of all that is beautiful led her to devote her professional life to cosmetics. In 1991, she joined the Clarins Group, where she acquired extensive experience. In 2001, Chrystelle Lannoy introduced the Pevonia cosmetics brand in France; the brand became a leader on the American spa market and provided Chrystelle with invaluable experiences and invaluable leading beauty industry expertise.

Her lifelong love of precious and semi-precious stones gradually began to exert its influence on her passion for cosmetics. She developed the Gemology Cosmetics concept and it was the first skincare range established, in the world, which was based on the precious trace elements extracted from gemstones.

Her cosmetics range features products designed for all skin types and essential needs. The brand was launched in 2007 and it wasn’t long before many well-known European celebrities fell in love with Gemology.

But for Chrystelle Lannoy beauty industry enthusiasm also entails commitment.

Chrystelle sponsors a beauty salon in Bordeaux that provides free beauty care to underprivileged women and annually she provides a team of Gemology beauticians to assistance for performers at the "Enfoirés" charity concerts in France. Her different activities do not exclude a commitment to her family. She is indeed the mother of four children, yet Chrystelle smoothly combines her personal life with her passions and business interests.
