Gen Z makeup brand e.l.f. beauty is teaming up with American Eagle to launch a denim-inspired makeup and skincare collection.
e.l.f. has previously collaborated with Dunkin’ and Chipotle for food-inspired makeup collaborations, but the limited-edition e.l.f. x American Eagle collection is the first fashion collaboration for e.l.f. and the first beauty collaboration for American Eagle.
She explains, “Our collaboration features so many nods to the American Eagle brand, both in the small details and the signatures we reimagined. From incorporating the AE denim tag on the eyeshadow palette to a denim pocket beauty bag to house your collection to the creative play on the blue palette and the entertaining spotlight on cheeks, we authentically embrace both brand's dna and create a new dimension at the intersection of fashion and beauty.”
“Just like American Eagle, e.l.f. is a team of disruptors who embrace the importance of ‘retailing at the speed of Gen Z,’” commented Craig Brommers, Chief Marketing Officer, American Eagle. "Our brands speak directly to Gen Z – we meet them in their closet, while e.l.f. meets them at their vanity. We're excited to intermingle across touchpoints and industries to deliver the kind of fun collaboration that we know they'll love.”
In an industry first, the e.l.f. x American Eagle collab is available on e.l.f.’s just launched TikTok shop. Fans can also head over to the livestream shopping platform NTWRK to find the e.l.f. x American Eagle Vault.
