It’s impossible to deny the influence celebs have over the makeup we use, from Marilyn Monroe‘s iconic red pout to Coco Chanel‘s namesake perfume and Kim Kardashian‘s hundred million-dollar beauty brand. If they’re not creating the collections themselves, brands are evoking the essence of these A-listers with product names that elicit more excitement than the standard moniker.
Ahead are 12 non-discontinued products you may not have known (or simply forgot) were inspired by high-profile faces. Although celebrity makeup collaborations sort of force brands to throw their name on products, these select few are also more lucrative than most.
