About Emilie

Hi, I’m Emilie.

I help international beauty, fashion and lifestyle brands adapt their content for the French market.

Because in France, translation alone isn’t enough. Tone, structure and level of precision directly impact perception and conversion.

What works in the US or UK can feel too direct, too marketing-driven or less credible in French.

I work on product pages, websites, UX copy and brand content, with one goal:
content that feels natural, credible and effective for a French audience.
