About us

e.l.f. Beauty, Inc. stands with every eye, lip, face and paw. Celebrating the beauty of every eye, lip and face is fundamental to our DNA. It’s in our name and inspires us as a company. We are committed to creating a culture internally – and in the world around us – where all individuals are encouraged to express their truest selves, are empowered to succeed and where we do the right thing for people, the planet and animals. Our deep commitment to inclusive, accessible, cruelty-free beauty has fueled the success of the e.l.f. Cosmetics brand online and at retail since 2004. With the 2020 acquisition of the pioneering clean-beauty brand W3LL People, and the new lifestyle beauty brand Keys Soulcare created with Alicia Keys, we continue to strategically expand our portfolio with brands that support our purpose and values. Our brands are widely available online, and at leading beauty, mass-market, and natural specialty retailers.

  • We believe in ownership—in every sense of the word.     That’s why every e.l.f. employee is granted equity from day one. Because we ask our team to show up fully vested in all we do, we also give them a seat at the table. 🫶    Ownership isn’t just about stock—it’s about transparency, trust and talking through the hard stuff.    “We sort of overshare internally,” said Scott Milsten, e.l.f.’s Chief People Officer. “So, while this is a time when I think you might find companies retreating into silence, we absolutely go the other way.”      Here’s what we’ve learned:  ➡️ Overshare > Under-communicate: Our team deserves more than sugarcoated updates. We’re open about the headwinds, honest about the implications and proactive in discussing long-term value creation. ➡️ Equity is empowerment: Our compensation structure gives all employees a stake in the company. That means we treat every team member like an owner—because they are one. ➡️ Stay the course: Many things fluctuate. Our missions does not. Our ability to take market share, innovate and lead with purpose remains as true as ever.     Through every challenge, our mantra remains: anything is e.l.f.ing possible. 🚀    We’re grateful for leaders like Scott and the culture we’ve built together—one of high-performance teamwork fueled by a one team, one dream mentality.    Read the full story by Fortune here: https://lnkd.in/eJ3cSKWq

    We believe in a glow that goes the distance. That’s why we’re unleashing our latest campaign — "The Many-Trick Pony" — starring none other than our holy grail, social media darling, and overachieving workhorse: Halo Glow Liquid Filter.      In a world full of predictable beauty commercials, we decided to flip the script (and make a horse talk). Voiced by the iconic Rebecca Black, our animated pony gallops straight past expectations — proving that Halo Glow is anything but a one-trick wonder.     Versatility is a superpower, accessibility is non-negotiable, and glow comes without compromise. Cruelty-free, community-first, and crafted to unleash your many talents — Halo Glow isn't just a one-trick pony.     Or as our sassy, wind-blown pony would say: “We prefer a multi-talented small-boned horse.” 🐴    The moral of the story?  Don’t let anyone put your glow in a box — because when it comes to your shine, you should always be the one holding the reins. ✨    “The Many-Trick Pony” is our rally cry to be anything and everything you want to be — and yes, an e.l.f.ing hilarious excuse to make a horse talk. 😂

  • Keys Soulcare inspires to change the conversation in beauty through its community of ‘lightworkers’.        Who are lightworkers? Individuals who exemplify authenticity, purpose and the brand’s soulful ethos – those who shine their light at full wattage.       “They are truth tellers and uplifters who remind others to show up authentically. Their stories demonstrate the profound impact of intentional relationships on personal growth and collective well-being,” said Laurie Lam, Chief Brand Officer, e.l.f. Beauty.       In a recent Cosmetic Business feature, Keys Soulcare, the holistic beauty and skincare line created by Alicia Keys and e.l.f. Beauty, leverages the powerful voices of their lightworkers in a three-part video series with The Skin Deep, an online platform for authentic conversations.     “This series explores how meaningful dialogue can spark reflection, connection and healing,” says Lam. “At Keys Soulcare, our rituals have always been more than skin deep. They focus on the whole self, inside and out, skin and soul.”     Each episode features real relationships and vulnerable conversations celebrating emotional wellness and inner glow.    Episode 1: Podcaster Justin Frett and lifestyle blogger Darren Graham explore friendship, growth and self-love. Listen here: https://lnkd.in/eWvVYaf3    Episode 2: Content creator Kiana Leroux and her daughter explore the power of care and connection. Listen here: https://lnkd.in/exkAHhzF      Tune back in on May 11 with a Mother’s Day special featuring Alicia Keys and her stepson Nas.    Read the full Cosmetic Business article here: https://lnkd.in/eD9yYbgR

  • At e.l.f. Beauty, we believe in empowering. legendary. females.      We’re proud to deepen our commitment to women’s sports by teaming up with Olympic gold medalist, Team USA icon and Minnesota Frost star Kendall Coyne Schofield.     Kendall is a trailblazer and a movement maker on and off the ice. It was Kendall’s bold outreach to Billie Jean King that helped spark the creation of the Professional Women’s Hockey League (PWHL), a league built to uplift and champion women hockey players.     For e.l.f., this partnership is personal. It's about creating real visibility, real opportunity and real impact for the next generation of athletes. Because when you see it, you can dream it—and then be it.     Together with Kendall and the PWHL, we’re showing up for the voices, talents and dreams that have too often been underrepresented in sports—and in the world.     Women's sports are not just the future—they are the fastest-growing opportunity in sports today, and we're honored to stand on the frontlines of this transformation.     Anything is e.l.f.ing possible.     “I think like me, e.l.f. is committed to inspiring confidence in women and empowering them to break barriers,” said Coyne Schofield. “I’m proud to bring that shared value to the PWHL community and fans.”     Hear more from Kendall’s interview with Forbes here: https://lnkd.in/gxkzy5HZ
