What Is the History of .makeup?
The .makeup domain was delegated to L'Oréal on December 23, 2015, under ICANN's New gTLD Program. It received a GAC Early Warning from Australia due to concerns over exclusive control of a generic term in a broad market sector. In September 2020, operational control was transferred from L'Oréal to XYZ.COM LLC, with CentralNic handling back-end registry services. L'Oréal initially planned a three-stage rollout, beginning with internal use, followed by limited partner access, and potentially broader use after five years—though public registration has not occurred.
