Celebrity-Owned Beauty Brands We’re Completely Obsessed With
While many celebs are sitting pretty (literally) on sweet endorsement deals, some have chosen to go rogue and take the reins when it comes to beauty. More and more A-listers are putting on their entrepreneurial hats and starting or backing beauty businesses, some of which have earned full-blown cult status. You’ve probably heard of a few of these companies, whose products may have already made their way onto your vanity, but we guarantee a few surprises in the mix. Here, 15 celebrity-owned beauty brands you should check out stat.
