A Timeline of Every Celebrity Beauty Brand That’s Launched Since the ’90s

In June 2023, Sofia Vergara announced the launch of “Toty,” a sun-care line that fuses skin care and makeup. The line launched with three products: a makeup compact, a mineral sunscreen, and a CC cream.

In an interview with Vogue in September, Brad Pitt announced a new skin-care brand, Le Domaine, which combines science and nature.

In September 2022, Travis Barker expanded his brand Barker Wellness to include skin care. The five new products are vegan and make up a complete regimen.

In September 2022, after “years in the making,” Ciara launched a skin-care line called OAM Skin (“OAM” stands for “on a mission”). It includes five products, including cleanser, exfoliating pads, face serum, moisturizer, and eye cream.

Cosmoss by Kate Moss is the model’s “soulful, sensual, self-aware” beauty brand, which launched in September. The brand’s debut launch features six products, ranging from cleanser and face cream to tea.

Michael Strahan joined the growing list of celebrity beauty brand founders in September 2022 with a line called Daily Defense. The clean, sustainable skin-care and grooming brand is exclusive to CVS and contains five products.

In August, fashion designer Stella McCartney announced a new vegan skin-care line, Stella. This news comes years after her initial foray into beauty in 2007 with organic brand Care.

Being Frenshe is Ashley Tisdale’s Target-exclusive wellness and beauty line, which launched in July. The product lineup includes a variety of items for body, hair, and skin, like fragrance mists, hair masks, candles, lotions, bath bombs, and more.

In July 2022, Idris and Sabrina Elba announced the launch of S’Able Labs, their new skin-care brand. The married duo created their line to target common beauty concerns in melanated skin, like hyperpigmentation and inflammation.

In 2021, Hailey Bieber filed trademark rights to “Rhode,” her middle name. She continued to hint at potential skin-product categories on Instagram for the next year until Rhode launched in June 2022 with three products: Barrier Restore Cream ($29), Peptide Glazing Fluid ($29), and Peptide Lip Treatment ($16). Each one continues to sell out within hours.

Courteney Cox launched her sustainable fine-fragrance-infused home-care line, Homecourt, in April. The line features candles, hand creams, and cleaning products (very on brand for her “Friends” character, Monica).

In March, musician and former No Doubt frontrunner Gwen Stefani launched her makeup brand GXVE (pronounced “give”). The collection features eight debut products: three lipsticks (all in her signature red hue), eyeshadow quads, liquid eyeliner, two brow products, and a primer. The price point ranges from $21 to $48, and it’s available exclusively to shop on GxveBeauty.com and at Sephora.

In an interview, Stefani told POPSUGAR she’s “pretty confident” you’ll dig the line: “If you like makeup, you’re going to like it.”

On March 1, the model-turned-entrepreneur Winnie Harlow dropped a beauty brand called Cay Skin with one intention in mind: sun protection. The inaugural collection is available on the brand’s website (but you can scoop it up at Sephora come March 22) and includes four skin and suncare products in total: the Isle Glow Face Lotion SPF 45, Universal Mineral Face Lotion SPF 55, Isle Lip Balm SPF 30, and Isle Body Oil SPF 30 ($32).

La La Anthony launched her hair-care brand, Inala, in February. The line’s star product is a hair-growth serum, which she formulated to help combat the hair loss she was experiencing from wearing tight protective styles. “If this little bottle can bring you some happiness and peace by just making your hair grow . . . then I feel like I’ve done something good,” Anthony previously told POPSUGAR.

Seemingly out of the blue in January, Martin subtly hinted about a forthcoming namesake brand called Mari by Marsai by posting about it on Instagram. By February, she launched a range of press-on nails that feature both on-trend nail-art designs and single color (but immensely flattering) options. Each one costs $20 to $22, with fitting names like CEO, Sai, Sips Tea, Quiet on Set, Rich as Cream, and Ms. Minimalist – and you can shop the entire line ahead.

Legend recently announced plans to launch an affordable skin-care line catering to consumers with melanated and dark skin tones. The line is in the development phase, and a name has not yet been shared publicly, although we do know the venture is part of his new partnership with A-Frame Brands. (The holding company also has Naomi Osaka’s Kinlò and Gabrielle Union and Dwyane Wade’s forthcoming Proudly in its portfolio.)

In June 2021, news broke that Scarlett Johansson is planning to launch a skin-care brand in early 2022. Now, after five years in the making, the actor’s line called The Outset has officially arrived.

“I have had acne-prone skin – struggled with that through my 20s – and I’ve tried every acne peel, mask, and skin resurfacing polish,” Johansson previously told POPSUGAR. “Whenever my skin is breaking out, I have always returned to this three-step process of cleansing, and priming, and moisturizing.” That’s what inspired the three hero launches: a gentle cleanser, a firming collagen serum, and a daily moisturizer. The Outset also carries a night cream, an eye cream, and a lip treatment.

On Dec. 15 2021, Peyton List disclosed that she’s been working on her own beauty brand for two years. Pley Beauty is set to launch in January and will include a lineup of color cosmetics products. “It was crazy because, even when the whole world was shut down and it felt like I had no idea what would happen with filming and everything else, I was still meeting and developing this beauty brand,” List previously told POPSUGAR. Her brand is for “people that love beauty and love expressing themselves, but also care about their impact [on the world] and the environment.”

In one of the more unexpected beauty launches of late, Tyler the Creator announced that three shades of nail polish and a fragrance would be included in the expansion of his Golf le Fleur brand. The rapper tweeted that the scent specifically came from “an idea i had set on top of a mountain in california.” The polishes retail for $20 each.

We should have seen this one coming: after countless epic nail art moments on the red carpet – not to mention couple manicures with Megan Fox – Machine Gun Kelly launched a gender-neutral nail polish brand called UN/DN LAQR in December. It’s inspired by his own love for nail art and hit the market with ten nail polish shades and a top coat, as well as curated sets.

In November 2021, Styles announced the launch of his own beauty brand, Pleasing, which features four nail-polish shades housed in beautiful, circular-shaped bottles and marble-effect dome caps. He has been painting his nails for years, and thanks to his nail tech Jenny Longworth, he’s been experimenting with all kinds of nail art throughout the years – which is what makes his venture into the beauty world with Pleasing all the more fitting. The initial launch also includes the Pearlescent Illuminating Serum, a hydrating primer that gives skin a brightness and glow, and the Pleasing Pen, a dual-ended hydrating eye serum and matte lip oil.

In Billie Eilish’s first venture into the beauty industry, the singer teamed up with fragrance parent company Parlux to release a first perfume called Eilish, a blend of vanilla, tonka bean, and musks. It hit the market in November 2021.

In an interview with POPSUGAR, she said, “It sounds like a lot, but I want you to be sexually attracted to yourself when you wear this perfume. That’s really how I feel. I want people to feel obsessed with themselves and infatuated with themselves and feel like they’re unstoppable, and also comfortable and beautiful. I want people to feel in love with themselves.”

Comedian and longtime TV host Ellen DeGeneres partnered with friend and beauty-industry veteran Victoria Jackson to launch Kind Science, a skin-care brand dedicated to all ages (the youngest being “kindergarten,” DeGeneres joked during a press event for the launch).

As her first solo venture as an entrepreneur, in October 2021, Harvey launched a skin-care line dedicated to people with skin like hers: sensitive and prone to rosacea. The initial release of SKN by LH includes five products – a cleanser, a toner, a serum, an eye cream, and a moisturizer – and those five products encompass Harvey’s everyday routine, nothing more, nothing less (for now).

While the Friends alum had previously co-owned hair brand Living Proof from 2005 until the company was sold to Unilever in 2016, this year, Jennifer Aniston ventured out on her own with a new hair-care company called LolaVie. It launched with a single product: the Glossing Detangler, which our editors can attest is worth the hype.

While Ariana Grande has quite a few fragrances under her belt, she’s never ventured into the cosmetics category – until now. On Sept. 9, 2021, the singer announced the launch of R.E.M. Beauty, a makeup brand that had been two years in the making. She told Allure that while the products are still in formative stages, they will draw inspiration from ’50s, ’60s, and ’70s glamour.

“I’ve always pictured myself in a different time period,” she said. “I’ve always wanted to wear that makeup, wear that hair, wear those outfits, be those performers.”

Hairstylist, groomer, and beloved Queer Eye star Jonathan Van Ness took everything he knows and poured it into his own hair brand called JVN. The lineup launched on Aug. 31, 2021, and includes a total of 10 products, from shampoos to conditioners to leave-in cream stylers.
