Dermalogica's Decade-Long CEO Aurelian Lis to Leave Unilever at Year-End

**Source:** Jumeili (聚美丽) · **Date:** 2026-10-14 · **Category:** People / Prestige beauty *原文:60亿级品牌换帅* Aurelian Lis, global chief executive of Unilever-owned professional skincare brand Dermalogica, will step down at the end of December 2026, according to a WWD report carried by Jumeili on October 13.

Jumeili sizes Dermalogica as a brand in the ¥6bn revenue class. The vacancy at the top of Unilever's best-known spa-channel brand lands while the parent is pruning its portfolio — it recently agreed to sell a century-old baby-care unit — so the successor's mandate will be watched for a signal on whether Dermalogica is a keep-and-invest or a future sale candidate.
