Philippe Thumerel, Market Development Director at Rexam, passed away last week at the age of 59. Since several months he had been dealing with courage against the illness that eventually got the better of him. A hard blow to his family and friends but also to the entire perfume and cosmetic industry given the strong presence and personality of Philippe Thumerel within this industry. It must be said that he was a long-time established expert in his trade, knowing how to make things happen in his profession with his unanimously recognised characteristic talent.

Enterprising, optimistic...

Because beyond the experienced professional he was, Philippe Thumerel had become the living memory of both the company where he had been working for more than thirty-five years, and the memory of an entire profession. Who did not know and who was not known from Philippe Thumerel?

Enterprising, optimistic, always lending an ear, he knew how to make himself available at any time. Inexhaustible, he showed an interest in everything, was curious about everything. All the teams of Beauteam of MakeUp in Paris, MakeUp in New York and PremiumBeautyNews.com share the grief of his family and friends to whom they offer their sympathy and today wish to pay a tribute to him.
