The list of celebrity-owned beauty brands keeps expanding.
From hair care to nail polish and everything in between, musicians, models, influencers, actors and actresses have dropped beauty lines over the years, but things seemed to spike during the pandemic — which isn’t necessarily a bad thing, since most people were spending more time at home and prioritizing self-care.
Ariana Grande’s dreamy makeup line R.E.M. Beauty launched last fall and Becky G unveiled her Treslúce makeup brand in the summer of 2021, but the ladies aren’t the only music acts making noise in the beauty world. Machine Gun Kelly, Harry Styles and Lil Yachty released nail polish lines in the last year, and Pharrell debuted his Humanrace skincare line in 2020.
With so many options to choose from, we decided to narrow things down a bit to make it easier for you to shop the brands launched by your favorite music artists. See the list below, and for more beauty-related shopping recommendations, be sure to read our list of eco-friendly celebrity beauty brands.
