Beauty has been steadily building the global footprint of its brands, doubling international sales penetration of all its brands over the last five years to 21% of net sales. e.l.f. Beauty sees significant opportunity for growth internationally and is focusing both on expanding in existing markets and selectively seeding e.l.f. Brands in new markets where it sees growing global demand from its community - and Brazil has been knocking on that door. "Brazil has been calling for e.l.f. and we've been listening.

"Brazil is a market that closely follows the global beauty industry, and for years, we have seen consistent consumer demand for e.l.f. Cosmetics. The brand's arrival at Sephora responds to this interest while also expanding the diversity of options available to consumers, particularly within a price range that still has room to grow in the prestige market," says Renata Nakano, Merchandising Director at Sephora Brazil.

ELF Sheer For It Bronzer Tints. ELF has launched the brand new ELF Sheer For It Bronzer Tints as a bronzer version of their existing Sheer For It Blush Tints. There are four different shades, and they're just $6 each. Keep on reading to find out more... The ELF Sheer For It Bronzer Tints are a brand new, buildable, multi-use bronzer tint with an hydrating and water texture. Designed to give you a sheer, buildable sunkissed stain on your cheeks and lips, with a formula that works on both; your lips and cheeks. ELF describes them as being hydrating on the skin, with a watery feel and natural finish, while being long-lasting and transfer-resistant as they stain the skin. The Bronzer Tints can be swiped on the cheeks to bronze and sculpt, or dabbed on the lips for a sheer and hydrated wash of color. Here are the four shades available * Fair-Light * Light-Medium * Tan-Deep * Deep-Rich Each of the ELF Sheer For It Bronzer Tints have a small doefoot applicator, for precise and targeted application. ELF recommend tapping the stain on your cheeks, jawline, forehead and nose, and blending it in with a tapping motion. They say the tint can also be used on your decolletage, shoulders, arms and legs for a full-body bronze, although the tube only contains a very small 0.22 fl oz (6.8ml) amount, so I'd keep them just for the face, and they're available right now. *This post contains affiliate links.

e.l.f. Beauty and Parity release "girls Who Play Change the Game", connecting girls' sports participation to long-term workplace impact. One of the largest and broadest studies of its kind, the study reveals the connection between the skills girls learn playing sports and women's careers e.l.f. Beauty and Parity unveil "Girls Who Play Change the Game," new research connecting girls' sports participation to women's leadership and workplace success. OAKLAND, Calif.-(BUSINESS WIRE)-e.l.f. Beauty (NYSE: ELF) and Parity today released a first-of-its-kind research report revealing a powerful, data-backed link between girls' sports participation and women's workplace performance. The study draws on more than 9,500 respondents across the United States, Canada, Germany and the United Kingdom, making it one of the largest and broadest studies of its kind. The findings are clear and consistent: women who played sports in their youth are more likely to become workplace leaders, are more likely to aspire to senior leadership and are more likely to negotiate their salaries. These women also credit skills learned in sports with helping them advance professionally. The report sits at the intersection of e.l.f.'s two long-standing purpose commitments: Change the Board Game, the company's commitment to boardroom equity and empowering.legendary.females., its commitment to women's sports. Both initiatives are rooted in creating access and accelerating pathways for the next generations of leaders. Parity, a women's sports consultancy focused on closing the gender income and opportunity gap in sports, is e.l.f.'s partner in the research. Aligned by shared beliefs, Parity brought their research expertise and rigor to execute the research at scale and e.l.f. leaned into its global platform of positivity, inclusivity and accessibility. The report centers on the Everyday Athlete - women who played sports for at least three years before the end of high/secondary school and now work (or recently worked) full time - alongside pro women athletes, men and women board members and women with little or no sports experience. Across all four countries, the study shows women who played sports carry those lessons into their careers. See how Everyday Athletes say sports change the e.l.f.ing game for women at work: * Nearly 90% of Everyday Athletes who have been promoted say a skill they learned in sports helped them move up. * 69% of Everyday Athletes who have worked at least five years say the lessons they learned in sports are more important than ever in today's workplace. * Everyday Athletes are nearly 50% more likely to hold leadership roles at work than women who played less or no sports. * Everyday Athletes are 37% more likely to aspire to senior leadership and nearly 25% more likely to have negotiated their salary than women who played less or no sports. * 80% of women leaders who were Everyday Athletes say sports were an important part of growing up. The study doubles down on these findings by talking directly to pro women athletes and men and women board members from all four countries: * 98% of the pro women athletes surveyed say sports helped prepare them to compete in life beyond their playing career. * 85% of men and women board members surveyed say the lessons learned in sports are important for future board members. "This research puts numbers behind what we've always believed. Building pathways for women in sports by investing in the players, leagues and their fans helps shape a brighter future for the next generation of changemakers," said Patrick O'Keefe, Chief Integrated Marketing Officer, e.l.f. Brands. "At e.l.f., we are committed to democratizing access to the playing field and to the boardroom so every legendary female has the access and the opportunity to change the e.l.f.ing game." Data from the study shows momentum for girls playing sports is growing: 70% of Gen Z women who started sports played through the end of high/secondary school, up from 62% of Baby Boomers. Even so, prior research shows girls across the US, Canada, Germany and the UK all participate in sports at lower rates than boys in their countries. Given the data from this study shows the life-long positive impact sports have on girls' futures, e.l.f. and Parity are resolved in their shared commitment to get and keep girls in sports. "Our hope is that these findings don't simply reinforce the value of sports but inspire society to create more opportunities for girls to play," said Leela Srinivasan, CEO of Parity. "Because this isn't about being elite or becoming a professional athlete. The benefits are linked to participation itself. By showing up, learning, competing and staying in the game for a few years, girls are already building valuable skills and characteristics they can leverage for advancement throughout their careers." Together, e.l.f. and Parity look to help level the playing field and widen the pipeline into every room where decisions are made. The report will debut at the third Power of Women's Sports Summit, produced by Billie Jean King Enterprises with e.l.f. as the presenting partner. The Power of Women's Sports Summit brings together some of the most influential change makers in sports, business and entertainment together on a global stage, all united by a shared commitment to accelerate the progress in women's sports as a marketplace.

The quantitative research was supplemented by 21 qualitative interviews with a mix of Everyday Athletes, women professional athletes, and women board members from each country.

The e.l.f. pickle lip balm that sold out in just eight minutes is back with three new flavours. Fashion & Beauty Writer Published 25th Aug 2026, 09:00 BST This article contains affiliate links. We may earn a small commission on items purchased through this article, but that does not affect our editorial judgement. Pickle lovers have another unusual beauty buy to add to their wish list, as e.l.f. Cosmetics has brought back its viral pickle-inspired Glow Reviver Melting Lip Balm with three limited-edition shades. The original pickle-flavoured balm sold out in just eight minutes earlier this year, quickly turning the unexpected beauty-meets-snack crossover into a must-have. Now, e.l.f. is bringing the trend back with even more pickle-inspired options, including a new plumping formula. If you're already browsing the brand's latest launches, there are plenty more beauty buys worth adding to your basket. e.l.f.'s August Lead Star products include the Sheer For It Blush Tint and Main Stain Lip Marker, giving shoppers even more ways to tap into the brand's latest beauty trends. The return of the pickle collection comes after the first drop attracted a huge amount of attention, with 77% of purchasers reportedly being new to e.l.f. The brand says more than 20% of Gen Z describe themselves as obsessed with pickles, and this latest collection looks set to give that enthusiasm another beauty-focused outlet. There are now three £9 Glow Reviver Melting Lip Balm shades to choose from, each designed around a different take on the classic pickle flavour. The Real Dill brings back the original sharp, tangy, unmistakably pickle-forward concept, this time in a sheer green shade. It's the obvious choice for anyone who wanted to get their hands on the first viral launch but missed out. Then there's e.l.f. von Dill, which takes inspiration from German pickle fans with a lighter combination of sweet, salty and tangy notes. The glossy pearl finish gives it a slightly different look from the original. For something with more of a kick, Spicy Lil' Dill introduces a plumping formula with a hot and spicy flavour and deep red sheen. It's perhaps the most unexpected addition to the collection and gives the pickle trend a more traditional make-up twist. There's even something for shoppers who want to take the theme beyond their lips. The Briny Blender is a collectible, pickle-themed make-up sponge designed to bring the novelty of the collection into the rest of your beauty routine. Across the range, the lip balms have the glossy, buttery finish and hydrating feel associated with e.l.f.'s Glow Reviver franchise, while the limited-edition flavours are designed to make the collection feel more like a beauty trend than a standard lip product launch. It is also worth keeping an eye on Sheer For It Blush Tint, particularly if you're looking for a versatile everyday product. The buildable, multi-use blush tint has become one of e.l.f.'s best sellers, allowing you to build the colour from a subtle flush through to a more defined look. Meanwhile, the Main Stain Lip Marker has already picked up viral momentum of its own. The lip product offers another way to add colour with a stain effect and can be paired with the Sheer For It Blush Tint for an easy lip-and-cheek combination. With the original pickle balm disappearing in just eight minutes, shoppers interested in the new limited-edition collection may not want to hang around. Shop e.l.f.
