e.l.f. Beauty Launches Glow Up!, Redefining Virtual Makeup and Community on Roblox

Designed for players 13+, Glow Up! was engineered to deliver an experience that feels both aspirational and accessible:

• Next-Gen Tech: Engineered a new, inventive, and layered makeup system that allows for millions of unique looks.
• High-Fidelity Realism: Modernized with realistic finishes, textures, and makeup routines that mirror real life.
• Community "Livestreaming": Introduced an innovative new way to compete and celebrate through themed challenges.
• Inclusivity at the Core: Launched with four unique characters that champion women in sports, business, music, and gaming.

Aligned with e.l.f.’s commitment to make the world a better place for every eye, lip and face, Glow Up! leads with innovation to prioritize inclusivity, so more players feel seen and represented on Roblox.

“Our community doesn’t want to be marketed to—they want to be invited in to play, create, and express themselves,” said Patrick O’Keefe, Chief Integrated Marketing Officer, e.l.f. Beauty. “With Glow Up!, we build an experience rooted in co-creation and belonging to support the majority of gamers who use character personalization to reflect who they are and what they stand for. Self-expression isn't a feature - it's essential.”

Roblox audiences increasingly prefer more realistic, high-detail experiences:

• New, diverse characters will be released monthly, inspired by the 55% of Gen Z/Alpha who believe their virtual avatar represents them better than their physical self.**
• Players become makeup artists preparing characters for major life moments.
• In each session, players select themes, apply virtual cosmetics with realistic controls, and craft looks ranging from realistic to imaginative and creative.
• The game introduces a “livestream” mode that enables players to interact with each other’s creations based on theme fit, creativity, and overall vibes, encouraging friendly competition and community engagement.

Across the Roblox ecosystem, e.l.f. Beauty designs experiences that empower players to be their best, most authentic selves. e.l.f. UP! inspires young entrepreneurs, Fortune Island introduces financial literacy concepts through play, and Glow Up! centers around self-expression. Together, these experiences reflect e.l.f. Beauty’s mission to leave the platform better than they found it.

Glow Up! was developed in collaboration with e.l.f.’s longtime partner eGen and Exclusible, marking e.l.f.’s first partnership with the studio known for high-end, gameplay-first experiences.
