Overview

WePink (stylized as wepink) is a Brazilian cosmetics company founded on 16 September 2021 by digital influencer Virginia Fonseca and beauty-sector entrepreneur Samara Pink. The brand's origin is tied to Fonseca's first pregnancy, a period during which she sought solutions for skin problems such as acne; its first product was the "10 em 1" serum, focused on skincare. With an initial investment of R$ 3 million and first-month revenue of R$ 10 million, WePink expanded its portfolio into makeup, perfumes, moisturizers and supplements, aimed predominantly at a female audience and with an active presence on social media. The company's product range spans personal care, makeup, perfumery and wellness. A defining characteristic is the use of skincare-associated ingredients in makeup products. Main lines include makeup (foundations, lipsticks, highlighters, mascaras and eyebrow products), perfumery (perfumes and body splashes) and wellness (supplements such as melatonin capsules with tryptophan). Notable launches include the "Candy Gloss" line in 2024, inspired by sweets, and perfumes such as Perfect Pear, Changes, Bourbon, Heaven and Wonderful. WePink has a strong digital presence centered on live commerce, selling products through live broadcasts. In one such action it recorded R$ 15 million in sales in one hour, and in a live held in Paris it earned R$ 9.3 million in one hour. In November 2023 the brand registered R$ 114 million in sales, with more than 723,000 products sold. It also uses digital influencers to promote products; in 2023 footballer Neymar Jr. joined the brand's advertising campaigns. Co-founder Virginia Fonseca's large social-media following boosts the brand's visibility, and the brand has more than 50 million Instagram followers. In 2023 the brand recorded revenue of R$ 325 million and expanded its operations, including more than 115 items in its catalog. International expansion began in July 2024 with the opening of its first franchise in the United States, located at the Yes Mega Store in Orlando, with plans to open a distribution center in the country in 2025. The company's partnership includes, besides the founders, Lucas Chaopeng and Thiago Stabile. To date there are no public records of acquisitions or mergers involving the brand. WePink has received mixed criticism since its launch. In 2023 it faced criticism related to the liquid foundation launched that year, with some consumers and influencers pointing to inconsistencies between marketing and the product's actual efficacy. More than 40,000 complaints were registered on the Reclame Aqui site in the second half of 2024, mainly about delays and customer service, though the company maintained a resolution rate close to 70%. In October 2025, the Ministério Público and Procon prohibited WePink from advertising products in live broadcasts until the company proves it has new stock and regularizes complaints from old customers. The decision followed more than 120,000 complaints over a two-year period, including misleading advertising and customers accusing the company of deleting comments criticizing WePink on social networks.
