Our Founders

Luiz Seabra Co-founder of Natura Cosméticos and Co-President of Natura &Co

Luiz Seabra discovered the world of cosmetics and beauty working in a small cosmetics laboratory.

In 1969, Seabra founded Natura on this belief when he was 27, and in 1970 he opened the first Natura shop in São Paulo. His early experience informed his approach to cosmetics: offering skin care and body care products using natural active ingredients.
