Meet IMAGE Skincare Founder & CEO Janna Ronert

For Professional Beauty’s latest webinar, they sat down with the founder and CEO of professional cosmeceutical brand, IMAGE Skincare.

In this webinar, Janna details how the brand has developed since first launching 20 years ago. She discusses the IMAGE full skincare diet, the inspiration behind new product developments, and one of the brand’s latest achievements: being named America’s #1 Spa & Salon Professional Skincare Brand!


Meet Janna Ronert, Image Skincare Founder

Born on a farm in rural Nebraska, Founder of IMAGE Skincare, Janna Ronert created her professional skin-care company out of her apartment when she was unable to find a skincare line without parabens or chemicals to solve her problems with rosacea. Today, IMAGE Skincare is a recognizable, efficacious, and affordable international company with over 25,000 customers and is best known for changing the health and vitality of skin for women in more than 60 countries. 

Janna, an international health and wellness speaker and female empowerment advocate, is active in organizations including IMPACT Women and C200, which recognizes the top 200 female CEOs globally and is a board member of The Commonwealth Institute (TCI). Janna, who has been featured in Forbes, is also the recipient of Ernst & Young’s Entrepreneur of the Year in 2012 and Florida Business Journal’s CEO of the Year in 2016.

 

The Big Idea Behind Image Skincare

Image Skincare have a saying around their offices: “We’re ‘Skinspired.’” More than just a catchphrase, it represents the passion with which IMAGE was built. “I wanted to create a skincare line that delivered on the promise of simplicity, value and results; that would help give every woman her best skin possible,” says founder and CEO, Janna Ronert, who started the brand from a tiny apartment in 2003.

IMAGE Skincare came onto the scene in 2003 from humble beginnings. Today, the company has grown into a global brand with a presence in over 60 countries. Our success is rooted in our community, customers and dedicated professionals. Backed by the dream and unyielding passion of our founder, Janna Ronert.

JANNA’S STORY: HOW IMAGE BEGAN

As an aesthetician, Janna had tested endless products. As someone who battled rosacea personally, she struggled to find ones backed by proven results. So, she began to research products and why they worked. As she studied common ingredients, a recurring—and unsettling—theme emerged: Unnecessary chemicals were everywhere in the skincare industry.

As a result, Janna identified a void: the need for clean skincare made without parabens or chemicals. So, she made it her mission to create products that delivered professional-level results with safe, proven active ingredients and effective botanicals. And thus, IMAGE Skincare was born.

Janna created the first IMAGE collection, VITAL C, as a solution for sensitivity, dryness and rosacea. Since, along with IMAGE clinical director and board-certified plastic surgeon, Dr. Marc Ronert, she has collaborated with top chemists and researchers to develop every IMAGE collection. From powerful anti-agers to targeted solutions for acne, hyperpigmentation and more, IMAGE offers effective, physician-formulated products for every skin type.

Being an esthetician, Janna tested endless products. As someone who battled rosacea personally, she struggled to find solutions that were both gentle and effective. Always one to act, Janna took matters into her own hands and began researching. As she studied common ingredients, a recurring theme emerged: Unnecessary chemicals were everywhere in the skincare industry.

Janna identified a void: the need for clean skincare made without parabens or chemicals.

“I wanted to create a skincare line that delivered on the promise of simplicity, value and results; that would help give every woman her best skin possible.”

Janna made it her mission to create products that deliver clinical results with safe ingredients and active botanicals.

Thus, IMAGE Skincare was born. Janna partnered with chemists, physicians, and skincare professionals to create solutions for all skin types and conditions. Today, IMAGE is proud to offer 13 targeted product lines. There’s a solution for everyone.

THE EVOLUTION OF IMAGE

Now, Janna is the Founder and Chairwoman of the Board at IMAGE Skincare. Together with her husband, plastic surgeon Dr. Marc Ronert, they established the Care for Skin Foundation, a non-profit organization that provides life-changing plastic and reconstructive surgeries for people suffering from skin loss. Most importantly, the organiSation helps children lead healthier lives by performing much-needed treatments like skin transplants and cleft palate surgeries.

Today, IMAGE Skincare continues to lead the industry. Our products are always paraben-free and are made using responsibly sourced ingredients. We never test on animals. And we continue to find new ways to maximize the benefits of botanicals while creating innovative, evidence-based skincare solutions to help the world Age Later®.

We’re proud to be partnered with Image Skincare to offer our skincare professionals extensive training and education, allowing our professionals tailor skincare regimens for individual needs, maximising their product benefits. We are grateful to our professionals for their passion, expertise and caring client interactions that drive our success.
