L'Oréal has reported its sales results for the first quarter of 2026. The world's largest cosmetics company achieved sales of 11.24 billion euros, representing a reported growth of 8.3% compared to the same period in 2025.
The company's performance was driven by strong growth in two key geographic zones. Europe was the top-performing region, while North Asia, which includes China, also showed robust growth. Sales in North America saw a more modest increase.
By division, the Consumer Products segment, which includes mass-market brands, and L'Oréal Luxe, the group's luxury division, were the main contributors to growth. The Dermatological Beauty division, which includes brands like La Roche-Posay and CeraVe, continued its strong performance, growing faster than the market.
Nicolas Hieronimus, Chief Executive Officer of L'Oréal, stated that the results confirm the strength of the company's balanced, multi-polar model. He expressed confidence in the group's ability to outperform the beauty market and achieve another year of growth in both sales and profits in 2026.
