As every year, the WWD group's American magazine BeautyINc publishes its Top 100 of the largest cosmetics companies in the world. A ranking based on the Beauty sales generated in 2012. While France places 13 companies among the 100 largest, Unilever has supplanted Procter & Gamble in second place for the first time since 1997, still behind the undefeatable No. 1 L'Oréal. The mature markets of the United States, Europe and Japan remain dominant, despite the good placement of emerging countries such as Brazil, India and China. Extracts with the Top 10 Worlds, Europe and France.
