Whether you're stocking up on skincare essentials or trying the latest makeup drops, Beauty Squad ensures every purchase brings you closer to rewards. If you're looking to earn more loyalty points, Beauty Squad makes it easy to get rewarded for every skincare and makeup purchase you makeโno matter where you shop. Earning loyalty points as a Beauty Squad member is simpleโand there are multiple ways to maximize your rewards. Beauty Squad members earn 10 points for every dollar spent. As a member, youโll also gain access to bonus point opportunities available during promotions, product launches, and limited-time events. Completing beauty & skincare quizzes, participating in community challenges, writing product reviews, and referring friends are all ways to boost your points balance faster.

Wondering how to earn loyalty points on beauty purchases made in-store or through retailers? As a member, you can earn rewards not just from online orders, but also by uploading receipts from eligible retail partners. One of the most valuable ways to maximize your rewards is through Beauty Squadโs receipt scanning feature. If you purchase e.l.f. products at retail partners like Target, Ulta, Walmart, or other authorized stores - simply upload your receipt after purchasing any e.l.f. SKIN or cosmetic item to receive points in your account. This makes it easy to earn points wherever you shop, while stacking points even faster through bonus offers, referrals, and member-exclusive challenges.

Features You Can Access within the e.l.f. Mobile App
Virtual Shade Finder Tool
A new tool is here with the e.l.f. Beauty App! Our new tool is here to help you find your perfect shade match. Available on mobile for iOS and Android, this shade finder tool uses the latest technology to scan your complexion in real time by taking a series of selfies that eliminate the effects of phone lighting impacting your colour match. Our shade finder is user-friendly, easy to navigate, and will give you the top 3 shade matches closest to your skin tone. The days of guesswork to try and find your perfect shade match are overโnow you can find your exact shade in minutes thanks to our new virtual shade finder!
Here are some tips on how to use our shade matching tool:
- Try to find the best natural lighting and avoid any bright light. Once you find your go-to lighting, make sure to wash off any existing makeup and remove glasses.
- Center your face as best as you can in the oval on your screen. You can bring your phone closer to your face if needed. Remember to hold as still as you can while the screen flashes.
- Avoid holding your fingers and thumbs over the display if possible.
Quick tip: Our shade finder will not work with privacy and blue-light screen protectors
