E.L.F. Beauty was an early TikTok adopter, but its strategy has evolved far beyond content. Kelly Shah-McDonnell, VP of Global Connected Commerce at E.L.F. Beauty, shares how the brand now treats TikTok Shop as a discovery and demand-generation engine that can influence sales and search across its broader retail ecosystem. That impact became especially clear with the launch of E.L.F. Hair, when TikTok exposure contributed to hundreds of thousands of searches on Amazon even though the products were not available there.Kelly explains how E.L.F. keeps creators at the center of its TikTok Shop flywheel, from identifying products that are easy to demonstrate to building deeper relationships through webinars, Zooms, and masterclasses. The brand also uses limited editions, TikTok-first launches, GMV Max, campaigns, and LIVE selling to turn product discovery into momentum both on and beyond TikTok Shop.What You'll Learn in This Episode:Why E.L.F. views TikTok Shop as more than a standalone sales channelWhat E.L.F. looks for when deciding which products to put behind creatorsHow limited editions and scarcity help E.L.F. test demandWhy creator authenticity matters more than follower countHow E.L.F. plans early while staying agile enough to react in real time
