Color e.l.f.nalysis created a beauty moment people wanted to participate in—rooted in behavior, fueled by curiosity, and delivered with true utility. It gave fans a clearer sense of themselves and a clearer path to products that fit their world. This campaign proved that the future of beauty discovery lives at the intersection of tech, self-expression, and the perfect shade of blush.

From Development to Drop

From building the tool to lighting up social, Movement was behind every swipe, scroll, and save.

The Challenge

Pinterest was a total white space for e.l.f. It’s where Gen Z was shaping and shopping trends in real time, but the brand hadn’t yet staked its claim. That’s when they came to us with a challenge: launch us on Pinterest in a way that feels native to the platform and feels 100% e.l.f.

The Game Plan

Color e.l.f.nalysis: the AI color tool that didn’t suck. Just take a selfie, get your season, and unlock a fully curated, shoppable Pinterest board of e.l.f. products that are scientifically proven to slay your face card. We launched it around the first day of summer—“it’s summer, are you??”— with a creator-led rollout, and let TikTok, Pinterest, and the group chats do the rest.
