Description: ELF ELF Beauty November 05, 2025

e.l.f. Beauty, Inc. (NYSE:ELF) is a U.S.–based personal-care company that markets cosmetics and skin-care under the e.l.f. Cosmetics, e.l.f. Skin, Well People, Naturium, and Keys Soulcare brands. The firm sells through a mix of national and international retailers and a growing direct-to-consumer (DTC) e-commerce channel.

Key performance indicators from the most recent fiscal year (FY 2023) show revenue of roughly $1.6 billion, up about 12 % year-over-year, driven largely by a 30 % increase in DTC sales, which now represent one-third of total revenue. The company maintains an industry-leading gross margin near 80 % and an operating margin of ~15 %, reflecting its low-price, high-volume business model and efficient supply chain.

Macro-level drivers for ELF include the continued expansion of the affordable “clean beauty” segment (projected to grow at ~5 % CAGR through 2028) and strong Gen-Z spending on social-media-inspired products, which fuels both online traffic and retailer demand. Additionally, the broader personal-care market benefits from resilient consumer discretionary spending even in a modest-growth economic environment.
