Revenue Sources
PassBased on the company's SEC filings and financial reports, Estée Lauder's revenue primarily comes from the sale of beauty and personal care products. None of these core business activities are inherently haram. While some of their products may contain small amounts of alcohol as a preservative or ingredient, this is considered negligible and transformed (istihalah) during the manufacturing process according to mainstream scholarly opinions.
