L'Oréal AI-driven cosmetics development

Entities: OpenAI · ModiFace · Maybelline New York · La Roche-Posay · L'Oréal

Overview

In early July 2026 L'Oréal announced that it was speeding up product development by applying artificial‑intelligence technologies. By late July the company deepened its AI strategy through a partnership with OpenAI unveiled at the VivaTech exhibition in Paris. The collaboration integrates OpenAI‑powered agents into consumer‑facing channels such as WhatsApp and ChatGPT, allowing shoppers to receive personalized skin‑care recommendations, virtually try on makeup, and discover products directly within the chat interface. A specialised model, GPT‑Rosalind, will also be used to analyse the skin microbiome for new formulation insights, a capability highlighted for La Roche‑Posay. The rollout begins with Maybelline New York and will expand to other L'Oréal brands including Lancôme and Kérastase in the United States.
