The Division grew\u00a0in volume and value,\u00a0driven by the ongoing premiumisation of haircare, its successful omnichannel strategy, and its focus on elevating the salon industry through tailored services.<\/p>\n<p>Progress was broad-based by region. In North America, the Division grew in high-single-digits, significantly outpacing the market. In all other regions, growth was in double digits: emerging markets were boosted by exceptional momentum in Brazil and GCC5; in Europe, the DACH and Spain\/ Portugal clusters, were particularly dynamic; North Asia was driven by continued strength in mainland China.<\/p>\n<p>By category, premium haircare was the key driver: market growth remained dynamic and the Division significantly outperformed thanks to its blockbuster franchises and highly successful launches like K\u00e9rastase Gloss Absolu Cr\u00e8me, Redken Acidic Grow Full or L\u2019Or\u00e9al Professionnel Keratin Alpha Sleek. In hair colour, where the market remained more challenging, the Division continued to stimulate traffic in salons with breakthrough innovations like Redken Shades ALK\u00a0and relaunches like L\u2019Or\u00e9al ProfessionnelDiaLight. In hair styling, the integration of Color Wow\u202fis under way.<\/p>\n<p>CONSUMER PRODUCTS<\/p>\n<p>Adjusted like-for-like growth amounted to +4.3%.<\/p>\n<p>The Division delivered solid growth, which accelerated between first and second quarter with a particularly strong performance from the number one beauty brand in the world: L\u2019Or\u00e9al Paris.<\/p>\n<p>By region, North America delivered a solid performance in a dynamic market. Europe maintained its robust momentum with noteworthy performances in the UK-Ireland cluster and Italy. Emerging markets continued to grow with particularly strong results in Brazil, India, and Vietnam. With the acquisition of Innovist, the Division is further strengthening its foothold in the all-important Indian market.<\/p>\n<p>All categories grew, propelled by a solid innovation plan. With double-digit growth, haircare remained the standout performer, powered by L\u2019Or\u00e9al Paris Elvive Collagen Lifter and Garnier Fructis Diamond Sleek. Hair colour remained solid, driven by Garnier Olia. In makeup, growth was driven by innovations such as L\u2019Or\u00e9al Paris Extensionist Mascara and Maybelline New York Serum Lipstick, as well as strong performances from 3CE and NYX Professional Makeup;\u00a0with the launch of its Fat Oil Body Collection, the latter expanded into body care and fragrance. Skincare benefited from new launches like L\u2019Or\u00e9al Paris Revitalift Filler Glass Skin Liquid Cream, the continuedrollout of Garnier Dry Touch Cream and strong double-digit growth from local champions Mixa and Thayers. Dr.G is starting its global expansion, having already been introduced in China and Southeast Asia.<\/p>\n<p>LUXE<\/p>\n<p>Adjusted like-for-like growth amounted to +5.1%.<\/p>\n<p>The Division delivered robust growth, advancing twice as fast as the global selective market &#8211; testament to its ambitious innovation strategy and the power of its highly complementary portfolio.<\/p>\n<p>The single biggest growth contributor was North Asia: boosted by double-digit growth in China, the Division outpaced a still challenging market. Momentum was robust in Europe and North America, where L\u2019Or\u00e9al Luxe consolidated its market leadership; emerging markets remained a dynamic growth engine.<\/p>\n<p>Fragrances continued to advance in double digits, cementing L\u2019Or\u00e9al Luxe\u2019s global number one position. This was driven by the spectacular success of Prada Paradigme, which very rapidly established itself as a blockbuster, and the successful deployment of Emporio Armani &#8211; alongside the exceptional performances of core franchises like Yves Saint Laurent Libre &#8211; which has become the world\u2019s number one women\u2019s fragrance &#8211; and MYSLF, as well as Valentino Born in Roma.<\/p>\n<p>In skincare, momentum accelerated &#8211; propelled by the strong success of Helena Rubinstein\u2019s Replasty franchise. Recently acquired Medik8 pursued its exceptional growth trajectory. With the promising launch of Lanc\u00f4me Absolue Longevity M.D., L\u2019Or\u00e9al Luxe is capitalising on the longevity trend.<\/p>\n<p>L\u2019Or\u00e9al Luxe marked a historic milestone by entering a fifty-year exclusive worldwide licence agreement for Gucci Beauty, effective 1 July 2027, subject to regulatory approvals.<\/p>\n<p>DERMATOLOGICAL BEAUTY<\/p>\n<p>Adjusted like-for-like growth amounted to +10.6%.<\/p>\n<p>Dermatological Beauty delivered strong, double-digit growth.

Europe and North America grew in high single-digits, accelerating quarter after quarter.<\/p>\n<p>Growth was in double digits in both haircare and skincare; sun care performed strongly, driven by the very successful launch of CeraVe Sun and &#8211; more broadly &#8211; consumers\u2019 quest for superior anti-UV protection.<\/p>\n<p>La Roche-Posay, CeraVe and SkinCeuticals all grew in double-digits. La Roche-Posay was powered by the continued strength of key pillars like Cicaplast, coupled with successful launches like Hyalu B5 Suractivated and UV Air Fluid. The reacceleration of CeraVe was confirmed, boosted by its core ranges and successful innovations.\u00a0SkinCeuticals continued to advance in double digits, boosted by the strong performance in North Asia and the success of the A.G.E.

Growth was broad-based across\u00a0categories, channels, and price tiers.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>With high-single-digit growth, Professional Products was a key driver of its industry\u2019s expansion. All major brands advanced strongly, led by K\u00e9rastase, Redken, and Matrix. In the professional channel, momentum was driven by breakthrough innovation in hair colour, notably Redken Shades ALK and Blonde iQ, which also contributed to a significant acceleration at SalonCentric.<\/p>\n<p>In Dermatological Beauty, momentum continued to accelerate &#8211; led by a standout performance from La Roche-Posay with strong growth across key franchises and the successful expansion at Walmart; CeraVe pursued its upward trajectory, fuelled by continued strength across both skincare and haircare.<\/p>\n<p>Consumer Products continued its dynamic trajectory.

Among the smaller brands, Thayers advanced very strongly in skincare.<\/p>\n<p>L\u2019Or\u00e9al Luxe continued to outperform the dynamic fragrance category driven by Prada, YSL\u00a0and Valentino.

L\u2019Or\u00e9al outperformed the market nearly three-fold: the single largest contributor was the Luxe Division thanks to the quality of its brand portfolio, the power of its innovation &#8211; notably Helena Rubinstein Replasty &#8211; and a successful 6.18 campaign across all platforms; in addition, Chinese brand Yue Sai performed strongly. Dermatological Beauty and Professional Products were highly dynamic with mid-teen growth.<\/p>\n<p>L\u2019Or\u00e9al grew in Japan &#8211; which was penalised by a decline in tourism &#8211; as well as in Korea. In Travel Retail, which remains impacted by the situation in mainland China, L\u2019Or\u00e9al outpaced the market.<\/p>\n<p>By division, in North Asia, Luxe delivered a solid performance, propelled by the ongoing dynamism in fragrances, the continued momentum of the Couture brands and the very strong performance of Aesop.

It was driven by a combination of volume and value.
