JAFRA Cosmetics is an active beauty, skincare, fragrance, and personal-care direct-selling company founded in Malibu, California, in 1956 by Jan and Frank Day. The company markets cosmetics, Royal Jelly-based skincare, fragrances, body-care products, bath products, and related beauty items through customer ecommerce and independent consultants. JAFRA has operated internationally for decades and remains publicly active through jafra.com.
JAFRA continues to use a consultant-based direct-selling model, with representatives earning income through retail product sales, discounts, commissions, and leadership/team-based compensation. The company's ownership has changed several times, including periods under Gillette, Clayton, Dubilier & Rice, and Vorwerk Group. In 2022, Betterware de México completed its acquisition of JAFRA's Mexico and U.S. operations, including worldwide JAFRA trademark rights. JAFRA is now part of the Betterware / BeFra direct-selling platform and remains an active MLM/direct-selling beauty company.
