Everybody wants—EstÉe Lauder
a little luxury in life.
In 1946, Estée Lauder founded a new company based on the unshakable belief that every woman can be beautiful.
Soon she introduced a creme of creams, a “goldmine of beauty” to bring out the best in her most discerning customers. She held nothing back, infusing her secret blend with some of the world’s costliest ingredients, and science’s most powerful advances.
She called it Re-Nutriv.
You’ll call it extraordinary.
From the first moment,
Re-Nutriv was exceptional
From its remarkable ingredients to its extraordinary efficacy to its elite price, Re-Nutriv was the world’s first true luxury skincare collection.
Re-Nutriv even came in a golden jar, reflecting the richness and importance of the precious creme inside.



The Re-Nutriv lifestyle
has always been elegant
and sophisticated.
Constant Innovation. Enduring Luxury
With each new addition to the collection, Re-Nutriv
transforms the world’s perception of what a skincare
or makeup formula can achieve. This ongoing
success is based on three principles originally
established by Estée Lauder herself:
The most precious ingredients.
The most innovative
science and technology.
An unsurpassed sensory experience.
