Below, we will take a closer look at Oriflame, one of the most popular companies in Europe. We will look into this legacy brand’s popular products and its business opportunity in detail.

Oriflame

Oriflame is one of the most recognizable make-up MLM companies. This Scandinavian beauty brand is known for its clean, nature-inspired beauty products. Today, the brand has a presence in over 70 countries and a global community of more than 3 million brand partners worldwide.

Popular Products

  • Doulogi Bond Repair Overnight Serum: A leave-on nighttime serum formulated for hair.

  • Eclat Homme Weekend Azur Eau de Toilette: A men’s eau de toilette with a fresh fragrance profile.

  • OPTIMALS Opt Hydra-glow gel face patches: Gel patches designed for application on the face or under-eye area.

Compensation Plan

  • The Oriflame compensation structure is based on the stairstep/breakaway MLM plan, where “Brand Partners (BPs)” break out from their upline to form new teams.

  • All brand partners start with 20% retail commission on each sale.

  • Apart from the retail commissions, BPs can also receive trade discounts based on the total personal and team sales. Trade discounts are tiered and start from 3% for sales volume between 200–599, and increase up to 22% for sales volume more than 10,000.

  • When the frontline partners of a BP reach the maximum trade discount level, which is 22%, they split from their upline to form their own group. When this happens, the upline stops receiving incentives on the newly split member and their sales and starts receiving bonuses.

  • There are a total of 6 bonuses in the Oriflame compensation plan. BPs start receiving these bonuses based on the number of split-out groups in their downline.
