Major beauty corporations have reported positive growth trends in late 2026. L'Oréal reported a 7.7% increase in revenue for the first nine months of the year, reaching approximately €35.33 billion. This growth was attributed to strong demand in fragrance, haircare, and dermatological beauty, alongside a 17% rise in e-commerce sales. Regional growth was noted across North Asia, Europe, North America, and the SAPMENA-SSA region.

Following this, Estée Lauder raised its annual sales and profit forecasts after its first-quarter net sales rose 7% to $3.72 billion. This performance was largely driven by a 20% increase in the fragrance category and a 4% rise in skincare. The company attributed these results to its “Beauty Reimagined” strategy, which focuses on reducing discounts and expanding distribution through platforms like Amazon and TikTok Shop.
