Do you trust celebrities when it comes to beauty lines? Skincare and makeup products are serious things, and you should pay attention when you're buying something for your face, especially if your skin is sensitive. Nevertheless, some A-list celebrities really care that they're putting out quality products, so check out the top ten iconic brands released in 2021 that you shouldn't avoid!
10. Pleasing by Harry Styles
She was so happy to receive this!
The man breaking all the stereotypes, making history, and paving the way for the other guys who feel like him – ladies and gentlemen, it's Harry Styles. He also launched his debut beauty line in 2021, named Pleasing, which will probably impress you, even if you can't afford some of the pieces!
Unfortunately, most of the bad reviews on this beauty line say it's too "ordinary" for someone like Harry while way too overpriced for a regular brand. Whether he's using his name as a cash-grab or not, give this collection a try. The items are actually packed with quality ingredients and colors!
9. r.e.m. beauty by Ariana Grande
If James Charles says so… He actually knows a thing or two about makeup
Ariana Grande is the most iconic voice of the young generation – we don't even mean her angelic vocals only. She's also an LGBTQ+ ally, a feminist, and someone who's always there for others. Hence, everyone loves her and supports her back, so her makeup brand, r.e.m. beauty, stayed in a safe zone!
Nevertheless, it wouldn't be honest if we said that everyone was satisfied and impressed with her effort. On the contrary, it received mixed reviews, even from professionals. However, most say the makeup line is "way too simple," but that's what Grande wanted to achieve. It's not the best overall, but it's not too bad as well!
8. About Face by Halsey
Manny and Halsey are such an iconic duo that you'll love!
We're still in the zone of the brands that actually received constructive criticism and not only the compliments. However, Halsey's collaboration with a beauty brand worked out as an example of versatility and freedom in makeup. We appreciate the variety of colors that she especially highlighted!
Luckily, this assortment gives you enough space to use Halsey's makeup, not only when you want a glam look. This beauty line is your best friend even when you want subtle coverage! Nevertheless, Halsey herself believes that her makeup will let you shine and express yourself however you wish, and we're rooting for that effect!
7. UN/DN Laqr by Machine Gun Kelly
A quality nail polish matters as much as a good skin care line!
Who says that makeup and fashion were made for women? Is it embarrassing when a man actually knows a thing or two about how to make his skin shiny and healthy? Absolutely not, since the 21st century brought the freedom for both genders to be whoever they want to be. Therefore, the rapper Machine Gun Kelly is here to break the stereotypes!
Actually, Gun Kelly focused on nail polish only, so he didn't go too far with his first beauty attempt. However, his UN/DN Laqr collection is bold and contains various colors. Its motto is "details matter," so it will ensure that your nails are the focus! From Vertigo to Sandstorm, these shades will steal your heart.
6. Nude Sugar by Toni Braxton
This one received many positive reviews – compliments all the way!
Another iconic trend in the 21st century is the vegan-friendly products beyond food – even skincare items are now vegan. Some brands care about this a lot, and Ulta Beauty never misses the opportunity to put vegans first. Toni Braxton is a Grammy winner, but now she has her own beauty brand for this massive company as well!
Moreover, Nude Sugar by Toni is one of 2021 collections that mostly received glowing reviews from customers. Ulta Beauty's collaboration with Selena Gomez named Rare Beauty also focused on vegan and cruelty-free products. In conclusion, if you're buying from Ulta, you don't have to worry about the high-quality ingredients!
5. Totally Plastic by Iggy Azalea
Trixie is Iggy's close friend, so this collaboration has incredible energy!
We already talked about the freshest 21st-century trends. So, why don't we go back to the beginning of this era for a minute? Iggy Azalea made us recheck the 00s vibes, and we love the vibrant colors that her collection, Totally Plastic, represents! Her brand is bold and daring, as much as her songs!
Moreover, Azalea teamed up with BH Cosmetics, a brand that always focuses on affordable, cruelty-free, vegan, but also clean and sustainable products. Besides the high quality, this beauty line doesn't lack glitter and frosted hues that were a must in the 00s. Nostalgic souls, get this one immediately!
4. LolaVie by Jennifer Aniston
The hair feels stronger after these products!
Skincare is crucial. Good nail polish plays the role as well. But where are the celebrity products that make your hair glow? Jennifer Aniston made sure to focus on hair, one of the most essential body parts for beauty! We've seen loads of positive reviews in many comments sections, so give your hair a break and treat it with a product from this line!
Aniston's gorgeous blonde locks have remained her trademark for years, so it feels good to know that she wants you to care about your hair as well! Actually, the actress revealed that she's been working on this brand for five years, so you shouldn't question quality and dedication. She wanted every detail to be perfect!
3. Anomaly by Priyanka Chopra
You can see how gorgeous her hair looks in the video!
We'll stick with the hair products for a while since another actress put her effort into creating a haircare line. It was Priyanka Chopra this time, and she also did a good job! Her collection Anomaly won't get your hair odd or anomalous – it will just make you stand out for your well-treated, nurtured hair!
Chopra is known for having the hair that everyone wishes, so she made sure that you can try her haircare routine. It consists of various shampoos and conditioners, and it gives you space to be experimental. This collection is available at Target, so make sure to give it a try since you won't regret it!
2. Olivia Palermo Beauty by Olivia Palermo
Elegant and chic are adjectives that Olivia Palermo never lacks!
We had actresses and musicians on this list, but some ladies are well-known fashionistas and entrepreneurs. Olivia Palermo belongs to that category, and her highly-acclaimed beauty line is a huge recommendation. The golden packaging with a bit of green will steal your heart already, but you'll also like the makeup's texture!
Of course, you can learn more on Palermo's own website and focus on details. Moreover, she regularly posts about her own weekly favorites, not only about beauty! Subscribe to her newsletter, too, to stay updated on the recommendations – get your favorite set, here and now!
1. Treslúce Beauty by Becky G
People love this one a lot, and you will, too!
The Latinas know how to play with your heart – and with your makeup as well. Feel free to try Becky G's attempt to make you look gorgeous for any occasion and for less money! Her makeup brand Treslúce Beauty is affordable, but don't let the price fool you. The lipsticks and the eyeshadows are actually packed with quality ingredients!
Moreover, Becky G also made sure the makeup is clean, cruelty-free, and vegan, so you'll dazzle like a gem without feeling guilty. The greatest thing in this beauty line is probably the "I AM" shadow palette, so consider it a number one choice. Her website, named after the beauty brand Treslúce Beauty, ships worldwide, so don't even hesitate!
After all, some of these top ten collections are as good as any other A-list brands that you can get in Sephora. You shouldn't prejudice the creator's name because celebrities already have a massive fanbase. Hence, they have to put out something really worth the price.
