Chief executive Sam Bazini said it had a strong final quarter, with steady online growth and expansion in the US.
It was set up by Bazini and Eoin Macleod, its managing director, who started by selling make-up in London.
Warpaint floated on AIM in 2016, raising £23million. Shares have rallied over 50 per cent in the last six months as it rides out spending pressures, selling products in stores like Wilko and Superdrug.
