Christina Fair Takes Charge at L'Oréal North America

L'Oréal Groupe recently announced the appointment of Christina (Tina) Fair as the new President of its Consumer Products Division (CPD) specifically for North America, effective immediately. This strategic move marks a significant step in L'Oréal's leadership strategy, reinforcing its commitment to growth and innovation within its vast beauty portfolio.

A Proven Track Record

Tina Fair brings an impressive history with L'Oréal, having served as the President of L'Oréal Dermatological Beauty (LDB) in North America since 2020. In this role, she successfully managed iconic skincare brands, including CeraVe, La Roche-Posay, SkinCeuticals, Skinbetter Science, and Vichy. Fair's adept leadership has positioned LDB as L'Oréal's third-largest division in the U.S., witnessing substantial sales growth and increased market share during her tenure. Brands under her guidance not only flourished but also topped recommendations from dermatologists, pediatricians, and pharmacists, cementing their reputation in the skincare industry.

David Greenberg, CEO of L'Oréal USA and President of the North America Zone, stated, “I’m thrilled that Tina will now be taking the helm of our Consumer Products Division and our extraordinary portfolio of Consumer Division beauty brands.” The appreciation expressed by Greenberg highlights her exceptional ability to drive business growth through strategic vision and entrepreneurial spirit.

Extensive Experience

Tina's career at L’Oréal commenced in 2008, where she held multiple leadership positions within the U.S. Consumer Products Division. Her early roles included significant marketing contributions for brands like Garnier and Maybelline New York. In 2015, she led global marketing for SkinCeuticals, and shortly after became its U.S. General Manager. Under her stewardship, SkinCeuticals saw remarkable growth, reinforcing its standing in the professional skincare arena.

This new appointment sees Fair succeeding Nathalie Gerschtein, who has decided to pursue opportunities beyond the L'Oréal Groupe. Fair’s extensive experience in beauty marketing and brand management is expected to continue the positive trajectory of the Consumer Products Division, which houses well-known brands such as L'Oréal Paris, Maybelline New York, Garnier, Essie, and NYX Professional Makeup.
