Our brands are among our strongest assets.

The Estée Lauder Companies has a diverse brand portfolio across skin care, makeup, fragrance and hair care that is unrivaled in the global beauty industry.

We see opportunities to grow globally in each of our categories. Makeup and skin care each achieved $3 billion in sales during fiscal 2008. We are leaders in prestige hair care in the United States with our Aveda, Bumble and bumble and Ojon brands. Almost 50 percent of our fragrance business is embedded within Estée Lauder, Clinique, Prescriptives and Origins brands. These time-honored scents benefit from the popularity of the brands themselves.
