Playfully Branded Hair Clips

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

e.l.f. Cosmetics Joined Forces with Jenny Lemons

— April 3, 2026 — Marketing
e.l.f. Cosmetics has partnered with the San Francisco-based accessories brand Jenny Lemons to create two limited-edition hair clips — the Power Grip Clip and the Power Grip Drip Clip. Both hair accessories draw inspiration from the gripping power of e.l.f. Cosmetics' popular face primer.

The smaller Power Grip Clip serves individuals with fine to medium hair and shorter lengths. The accessory offers a lightweight hold for twists, bangs, and half-up styles without pulling or snagging. The larger Power Grip Drip Clip features additional teeth and is designed for medium to thick hair and longer lengths. It is suitable for buns, French twists, and full updos.

e.l.f. Cosmetics' collaboration with Jenny Lemons, which is known for playful and colourful designs, adds an element of self-expression that goes beyond basic drugstore clips.
