Our Mission

Challenge everything we know about corporate sites.

Fearless storytelling at its finest.

With a portfolio of industry-defining, viral icons like e.l.f. Cosmetics and Keys Soulcare, e.l.f. Beauty needed a digital hub to match their meteoric rise. We transformed their standard corporate site into a storytelling engine for bold narratives that speak equally to fans, investors, and the industry at large.
A power of good. What was once a static report is now a living, breathing hub of impact — spotlighting e.l.f. Beauty’s drive to change business for good. From inclusion and sustainability to cultural leadership, the system ensures their mission is always visible, always moving forward.
Striking color. Strong typography. Seamless microanimations. Every inch of the .com experience reflects the fearless brand and its ethos — “a bold disruptor with a kind heart.”

A future-proof platform. Built at e.l.f. speed.

Smooth scaling. A polished aesthetic and a dynamic, modular design system power immersive, custom-feeling experiences that are unapologetically e.l.f. Reusable components and a drag-and-drop admin make updates effortless for the team.

Beauty in the backend. Our dev and creative teams worked closely to fully replatform to a headless CMS — launching alongside their 2024 Impact Report. Backend flexibility ensures a rich, scalable experience that can grow with the beauty brand. 

A giant leap for e.l.f.kind.
