Jennifer Aniston: Haircare
Jennifer Aniston "got the bug [to go] behind the curtain and figure out development of hair products years ago," she told PEOPLE. She used her A-list friends to quality test the formulations along the way, ultimately landing on a cruelty-free, vegan formula packed with naturally-derived ingredients (key among them is repairing chia seed) and created without gluten, parabens, preservatives, phthalates, silicones or sulfates.
The Emmy winner told PEOPLE she had several goals for LolaVie, most notably: "How can we give hair that is really damaged and goes through the wear and tear that mine has gone through nourishment? That's what we focused on we were all very particular about. It just had to be absolutely perfect."

La La Anthony: Haircare
La La Anthony's Inala launch emerged out of her own need to protect her hair. "A lot of my hairstyles had been clip-ins or wigs or braids or weaves," she told PEOPLE. "And I realized how damaged my natural hair was because I wasn't taking care of or paying attention to it." After her research led her to the Chinese tradition of using rice water in haircare, she headed into the kitchen in search of a "power potion."
"I was doing it myself — fermenting the rice at night, and the next day, putting the rice water in a bottle and spraying it in my hair, letting it sit it, rinsing it out, doing it again," she said. "I was really like, 'How can I put this magic in a bottle and make it last?'"

Iggy Azalea: Fragrance
Iggy Azalea made her first foray into the fragrance world with the launch of "Devil's Advocate" as part of her new line Parfum De Azalea. Inspired by the rapper's home country of Australia, the refreshing and seductive scent features notes of citrus fruits, vanilla orchid, musk and amber. Meanwhile, the equally sexy black bottle is adorned with an image of a woman embracing the devil — her "mischievous side," a press release explains.
Azalea told WWD the design represents "that unabashed, unafraid, naughty side of yourself."
"It's meant to be a reflection of that naughty, cheeky, almost the devil on your shoulder or that part of me that says, like, 'Just do it, just go, just have fun, go out with your friends that night, double text the guy,'" she continued. "It's about embracing the duality of yourself."

Kristen Bell: Skincare
The Good Place actress's transition into CBD beauty entrepreneur couldn't have been more chill. She had been raving about Lord Jones' products for a while when she met up with the company's founders and decided to team up on an affordable product range. "We aligned on a shared desire to make a CBD line that would be accessible to a wider audience at a lower price point, while maintaining the same trusted quality as the Lord Jones brand," Bell told PEOPLE. With everything from eye cream to body butter and bath bombs, she's hoping Happy Dance gives its users "everyday pick-me-ups."

Cher: Fragrance
"I have always loved fragrance, since I was a little kid," says the icon, who recently launched her first fragrance in over two decades. "I spilled my mother's 'toilet water' into our toilet because I thought that's where it was supposed to go. Of course I've learned since then. I've gone so far as to spray it in boyfriend's jackets so they won't forget me," reveals Cher, who outfitted the spicy scent's bottle with a faux leather corset and aluminum studs.

Priyanka Chopra Jonas: Haircare
Sustainability and affordability were at the top of Priyanka Chopra Jonas's list of goals when she set out to make her own haircare line. She'd done the research her whole life, "having used almost every product of every line."
One of the key differences with Anomaly is that the bottles and caps are made of thinner plastic to ensure the bulk of the products' expenses goes into perfecting the formulations, including a gender-neutral scent perfect for sharing with loved ones.
And the bottle's exterior — which is made "with 100% recycled trash from oceans and landfills," she told PEOPLE — is just as thoughtful as what's inside. "Because we spend so little on the packaging, we have a lot more money to be able to play with the formula. When you use it, you're like, no way this is $5.99."

Carmen Electra: Skincare
When the COVID-19 pandemic locked down the world, a surprising new connection to nature for self-proclaimed "city girl" Carmen Electra "opened me up in a different creative way, and I knew skincare was what I wanted to do," she told PEOPLE. From there, she developed her three-step skincare system. The paraben-free, cruelty-free, sulfate-free, gluten-free and vegan line features a serum, an eye cream and a moisturizer. It also features a shout-out to her 1993 song "Go-Go Dancer," which the late rock icon Prince produced for Electra's self-titled debut album.

Billie Eilish: Fragrance
The singer's eponymous scent is a vegan and cruelty-free blend that comes in gold chrome bottle modeled after the chest, neck and collarbone — parts of the human body she considers most "naturally beautiful."
"It's not really supposed to be physically sexy. It's almost supposed to be mentally sexy," she told Allure in October 2021. And the "Happier Than Ever" singer was just that when she received the first smelling sample of its blend of vanilla, amber, musk, cocoa, rose and wood. She recalled, "I almost cried because it was so perfect."

From the "challenging" process, Ross launched one shampoo, three conditioners, a leave-in, two serums and a shower brush that she now can't live without.

Ariana Grande just released her latest fragrance, God is a Woman. And like her previous award-winning scents, this one is sure to make a splash. Drawing inspiration from "the grand power of nature" the scent – which contains notes of pear, rose, vanilla and cedarwood – is vegan, cruelty free and comprised of 91% naturally derived, clean ingredients.
"I'm beyond thrilled to celebrate the release of our first ever clean fragrance," says Grande, who created her first fragrance in 2015, in a press release. "We have, of course, been cruelty free but taking this next step moving into clean, with responsibly sourced materials and vegan ingredients, is something we are all very proud of. I really adore this fragrance and hope it makes everyone wearing it feel beautiful and empowered."
And as if you didn't already have enough incentive to run – not walk – to pick up this new perfume, here's another push: For the first two weeks a contribution from qualifying purchases of the fragrance will be donated to ocean clean-up initiatives globally.

With the launch of Soulcare, Alicia Keys is hoping to help women and men to feel good from the inside out. The collection consists of rituals to encourage users to make time for self-affirmation, love and reflection. First up: a Sage + Oat Milk Candle, Obsidian Facial Roller, and Keys' first skin care product, Skin Transformation Cream. Though the products can be purchased on her website, Keys intends that digital space to be a place where people find inspiration. Soulcare, she says, "It's not really about a bunch of products that I want you to buy. It's about how we are caring for ourselves, nurturing ourselves, thinking about ourselves. In so many ways that's taboo, like, God forbid you think about yourself. We're just not taught how to do it, and I'd love to change that narrative."

"I've loved fragrance my whole life, some of my strongest memories growing up have been around scent," Pfeiffer tells PEOPLE.
