Ranking the Top 50 Cosmetic Companies

Brand Finance debuts its most recent list of the world's most valuable cosmetic brands.


Brand Finance recently released its Cosmetics 50—an annual ranking the world's most valuable cosmetic companies.
 
L'Oréal tops the list of the world's most valuable cosmetic companies—followed by Estée Lauder and Gillette in Brand Finance's annual Cosmetics 50 report.

Annie Brown, associate director, Brand Finance, comments:

“L'Oréal is – again – the world’s most valuable cosmetics brand, but with consumers forecast to increase spending as they re-emerge from the pandemic, the brand has significant growth opportunities. The key challenge for new CEO Hieronimus will be to serve as an effective brand guardian for L'Oréal as it seeks to return to growth, especially throughout Asia.”
