L'Oréal eyes Medik8 for one billion euros
French beauty giant L'Oréal is reportedly poised to acquire cosmetics brand Medik8 for one billion euros, the Financial Times reported on Wednesday. Specialising in 'anti-ageing' skincare, Medik8 would sit within L'Oréal's dermatological beauty section alongside brands like La Roche-Posay and Vichy, which saw its revenue increase by 3.5 percent in the first quarter, to 2.1 billion euros. L'Oréal acquired Australian luxury cosmetics brand Aesop in 2023, then valued at 2.5 billion dollars. The French group, which owns brands Garnier, Maybelline and L'Oréal Paris, concluded partnerships the following year with Italian luxury group Prada around the Miu Miu brand and by increasing its stake in the Swiss laboratory Galderma. Medik8's main shareholder since 2021 has been the investment fund Inflexion, which supported the British brand in the launch of a new research centre and in its development in the US, according to its website. Founded in 2009 by Briton Elliot Isaacs, Medik8 has over 300 employees and boasts a 'made in the UK' product range. This article was translated to English using an AI tool.

Now Pornhub ban spreads to EUROPE in row over under-18 access – and it includes two other major X-rated sites
The website is blocked in France as the company that owns it objects to a new age verification rule BLEU MOVIES Now Pornhub ban spreads to EUROPE in row over under-18 access – and it includes two other major X-rated sites PORNHUB has pulled out of France as a stringent clampdown on adult sites makes its way to Europe. A furious backlash over the country's new age verification rules has prompted the site to block access. Advertisement 6 French minister Aurore Berge said the decision meant there would be "less violent, degrading and humiliating content accessible to minors in France" Credit: Getty 6 Pornhub is the world's most visited porn site, with France being one of its biggest markets Credit: Getty 6 Aurore Berge added: "Pornhub, Youporn, and RedTube refuse to comply with our legal framework and decide to leave. Good!" Credit: Getty It comes over objections to a new law requiring porn sites to verify the age of users. Aylo, the adult entertainment company that owns Pornhub, has announced it will block access to the site in France as a result. The company claims the French law poses a privacy risk to users. The law could see users required to enter credit card details or other forms of official ID to verify their age. Advertisement Aylo also runs other popular porn sites such as Youporn and RedTube - which will also now be unavailable in France. The company argues that device-based age verification is a better solution than requiring porn sites to police the age of users. Aylo's VP for Brand and Community Alex Kekesi said: "All it requires is that the government enforce regulations on three companies – Apple, Google and Microsoft – the three operating system manufacturers requiring age verification at the device level prior to accessing adult content. "The French government refuses to take this simple step and instead are focused on futile and entirely symbolic regulatory actions which are unenforceable, do not protect children and expose your private data." Advertisement Pornhub is the world's most visited porn site, with France being one of its biggest markets. The website claims that France was its second biggest audience in 2024 after the United States. Kekesi added: "We've made the difficult decision to suspend access to our sites in France and instead use our platforms to speak directly to the French people. "French citizens deserve a government and a regulator who are serious about preventing children from accessing adult content.

She added: "Pornhub, Youporn, and RedTube refuse to comply with our legal framework and decide to leave. Good!" Advertisement It comes after Aylo made similar moves to block access to its porn sites in several US states over age verification laws. So far, 19 US states have passed laws requiring porn sites to verify users's age. 6 The European Commission has also launched an investigation into several adult websites Credit: AFP The bans cover around one third of the US population. Advertisement Methods of checking under these laws can include providing a government-issued ID or even scanning a user's face. It has seen many porn sites opt to block access to their pages rather than implement such verification systems. States that have implemented these laws include Texas, Florida, Arizona and Virginia. The European Commission has also launched an investigation into several adult websites - including Pornhub - over accusations they had not complied with regulations aimed at stopping minors accessing porn. Advertisement The UK also has a law requiring platforms to have "robust" age checks in place by July. It is currently unclear whether the same porn platforms will also block access to their sites in Britain when this comes into force.
