Discover her history, her background and the convictions that have led her to create this brand, which combines natural beauty, well-being and ecology.

HISTORY

A name. A story. Two generations of today's natural beauty enthusiasts, combining well-being and ecology in the service of professional make-up that respects the skin and the environment. A unique brand combining know-how in make-up imbued with purity and revealing well-being with healthy products. For a natural, organic, vegan and made in Europe result.

Throughout her experiences, Fred Mécène has identified the essential gesture of successful makeup: knowing how to magnify the complexion. Her sense of aesthetics and precise brushstrokes are inherited from her passion for drawing, her very first vocation.

She directs her choices towards natural and organic ingredients, while providing precious makeup advice to personalities who walk into her expert hands. From her strong intuitions and convictions, she dreams of only one thing: bringing the organic movement back to basics: more natural makeup, quality ingredients and a routine rooted in simplicity.

Complementary, her daughter Gabrielle embodies the era of time. « There are too many of everything, too many brands emerging in this saturated market. But my mother has the strength to simplify this jargon which is made to ruin us. Fred Mécène is a brand that concretely meets the needs of women and men inmakeup, whatever their age: I know the needs of my generation, my mother knows the requirement for more mature skin. Together, it’s just obvious since it’s true! ».
