10 Best — and Worst — Celebrity Beauty BrandsFrom Cindy Crawford to Snooki, see what's worth buying |
It's one thing when a celebrity endorses a brand. They sign on for a year or two, and their eerily airbrushed photos appear in magazine ads. They tell us in the beauty press about their favorite lotion or whatever the product line might be, but when the contract ends, POOF. They move on to the next big deal and I'm left thinking, "Maybe she didn't like that lotion after all …"
But when a celebrity creates a brand, it's a different story. Stars spend countless hours in the hair and makeup chair learning tricks from stylists and artists. They try a lot of products -- so when something inspires them to create their own line, they generally know exactly what they want.
Some celebrity beauty lines are fantastic. They work well, they smell amazing, they use great ingredients, and -- if they're really good -- they fill a void in the market. Some -- we're looking at you, Snooki -- are flat-out awful. Read on to learn more about the best and the worst of the bunch.
