Nykaa, India’s leading digital-first beauty and fashion retailer, announced today the acquisition of Earth Rhythm, a popular clean skincare brand. This strategic move follows a previous minority investment in Earth Rhythm in 2022 and solidifies Nykaa’s position as a major player in the rapidly growing clean beauty market.
Earth Rhythm has gained significant traction among environmentally conscious consumers with its commitment to natural and sustainable products. The brand offers a wide range of items, including plastic-free Shampoo Bars and innovative products like the Lip Cheek Tint, which appeals to younger shoppers seeking modern and natural beauty solutions.
By acquiring Earth Rhythm, Nykaa aims to strengthen its portfolio of clean and sustainable beauty brands. Earth Rhythm’s strong product range, coupled with its in-house research and development and manufacturing capabilities, aligns seamlessly with Nykaa’s vision of providing high-quality, ethical beauty products to its customers.
The acquisition will enable Earth Rhythm to leverage Nykaa’s extensive distribution network, marketing expertise, and influential partnerships to accelerate its growth and reach a wider audience.
Adwaita Nayar, co-founder of Nykaa and CEO of its fashion and beauty brand division, expressed enthusiasm about the acquisition.
Harini Sivakumar, founder and CEO of Earth Rhythm, shared her excitement about the partnership, emphasizing the benefits of Nykaa’s marketing, distribution, and influencer capabilities in driving the brand’s growth.
As Nykaa continues to expand its presence in the Indian beauty market, the acquisition of Earth Rhythm marks a significant step towards strengthening its position as a leading player in the clean beauty segment.
