About Me

She served on L'Oreal's board from 1997 to 2025. When she retired, her son Jean-Victor Meyers replaced her as vice chairman. Her son Nicolas Meyers is also a director. She became France's reigning L'Oreal heiress in 2017 when her mother Liliane Bettencourt, then the world's richest woman, died at age 94. Bettencourt Meyers also serves as the president of her family's philanthropic foundation, which encourages French progress in the sciences and arts. Together, L'Oreal and the Bettencourt Meyers family agreed to donate $226 million to help repair Paris' Notre Dame Cathedral following the 2019 fire.
