AT WORK

CéCILE GUERRIER, BEAUTY JOURNALIST

Time to wake up

I am not at all the morning person so it is very variable ... I think of some ideas, I do the stretching and read the press. And then I take care of my plants, I say hello to them! But basically my awakenings are rather rock'n roll...

 

My resume

I always wanted to write about beauty sector. Since the age of 9/10 it was clear to me. So I started at the age of 19 and have never stopped.

 

The following...

I launch my own creation studio. Beauty has led me to work also the visual and still life.

My activity will also have applications in the decoration area, for example patterns for wall panels. I have even some projects in the textile industry. But my sources of inspiration remain the same: nature and dreams.

And besides these projects, I have just finished a practical hair guide that will be released soon at SOLAR.

Beauty sector is my passion. Things are becoming more and more interesting, so I see myself working in this field still for a very, very long time!

 

My mantra

I do not have a mantra but a lot of requirements.

And to have faith. Things that we do need to make sense.

 

My best moments

Meetings. For example the interview with Serge Lutens with whom I talked about philosophy, literature and painting instead of perfumes!

Or Nicolas Degennes at Givenchy - exciting, cultivated and adorable.

 

24/7 online mode

I am able to disconnect myself several times a year. And I chose not to receive any professionnal mails on my smartphone.

 

My advice for this job

Be passionate about going deeper and deeper to get the essential of things and understanding them. There is nothing repetitive in this job, we learn all the time. There is a lot of things to learn, contrary to the image that some people may have. I want to understand what those products tell me.

 

The job dreamed of when I was a child...

... the one I have now!
