Get Ready For Gaga
It’s believed that the Poker Face singer is set to launch a boutique on the Las Vegas strip next month. According to the Las Vegas Review-Journal, the beauty brand’s boutique is under construction at Park Theatre at the Park MGM Hotel and will coincide with her residency, which restarts on May 30. Lady Gaga has had previous beauty ventures, like releasing a unisex fragrance named after her debut album The Fame, and being the face of MAC’s Viva Glam campaigns in 2009 and 2011. Gaga has been giving hashtag hints for over a year now, with multiple captions on her Instagram posts including #haus, #hausofgaga and #hauseditorials.
Fans Love Fan
Chinese celebrity Fan Bing Bing has announced the launch of an eponymous beauty brand, Fan Beauty. The star, who is known for her fair and good complexion, has since released a video of herself vouching for the brand. The post accompanying the video – which has garnered over 760 likes on Weibo within two days – said that Fan Beauty’s face masks are the “secret” to Fan Bing Bing’s beauty. Product teasers started appearing on the company’s Weibo account, which has garnered over 29,000 fans to date. According to Fan, sales for the brand will kick off in Hong Kong on Friday.
Another Jenner Tie-Up
Kendall Jenner is expanding her brand by jumping into the oral beauty business. The 23-year-old supermodel just announced her involvement in the new elevated oral care brand, MOON. In addition to having stake in the business, she’s also the face of the company and co-created a product of her own called the Kendall Jenner Teeth Whitening Pen, available online. Packaging was of utmost importance for the star when helping develop the product. “I always wanted one in a bag that looks nice. It almost looks like mascara,” she says. In addition to the teeth whitening pen, MOON’s line also includes activated charcoal whitening toothpaste, stain removal whitening toothpaste, a two-pack soft bristle toothbrush, floss and flossers.
A Grande Gesture
New trademark filings suggest that Ariana Grande is working to launch her very own beauty brand. She already has her own fragrance, Cloud, which you can find in department stores everywhere, but an entire Ariana Grande brand? The possibilities are endless. Liquid eyeliner, lipsticks, lip glosses, and false eyelashes would certainly all be must-have products, but what else could Grande’s line entail? Beauty buffs are hoping it’s chock-full of eye shadow products, hairstyling tools, and a whole lot of glitter. The name of her new line will be the same as her now-iconic smash single, Thank U, Next.
Red-Soled Beauty
Luxury shoe brand Christian Louboutin has named South American model Mica Arganarez as its first Global Beauty Ambassador. The model will appear in the brand’s beauty campaigns from June as well as make appearances for the brand and promote its beauty line on social media. “Mica possesses a very unique and intriguing kind of beauty,” eponymous designer, Christian Louboutin said. “She’s modern, she’s creative, she’s a tomboy yet very feminine. Mica also has a playful attitude – I think it’s the artist in her. There are so many facets to Mica that make her the perfect Global Brand Ambassador for Christian Louboutin Beauty.” The model wrote on her Instagram account. “This new adventure allows me to encourage other women to find what makes them feel beautiful and share it with the world. Red. Always.”
