ELF is obsessed with Hailey Bieber. This number shows how much.

Hailey Bieber’s cosmetics brand, Rhode, dominated the discussion during ELF Beauty’s second-quarter 2026 earnings call. Analysis by AlphaSense revealed that Rhode was mentioned 52 times—almost once every minute.

This was the first reporting period since ELF acquired Rhode in August, in a deal that could reach up to $1 billion if performance targets are achieved.

Rhode delivered impressive results, generating $110 million in net sales for the quarter. That exceeded the $103 million earned during the brand’s entire first half of the year. The surge was fueled by Rhode’s September debut in Sephora’s North American stores, marking the retailer’s largest regional product launch.

“I've been in the consumer space 34 years and continue to be blown away by what Hailey and her team are building,” ELF Beauty CEO Tarang Amin said on the call.

Summary

ELF Beauty’s acquisition of Rhode sparked major growth, with the brand’s sales and visibility soaring following its record-breaking Sephora launch.
