Dolly Parton, the legendary country music icon, has just added another feather to her cap—this time in the world of beauty.
DOLLY PARTON’S MAKEUP LINE
At 78, the queen of country is proving that age is just a number as she announced the launch of her very own cosmetics brand, Dolly Beauty, according to Page Six.
The news has fans buzzing with excitement, especially as she teased the first product from her line: a collection of lipsticks. Each lipstick is inspired by her iconic music career.
DOLLY PARTON ON LOOKING GLAMOROUS
Dolly shared the big reveal on Instagram, posting a glamorous photo of herself holding the new lipstick shade named ‘Jolene Red,’ inspired by her hit song Jolene.
Dressed in full Dolly glamour, she captioned the post, “I feel glamorous on the inside, so I want to look like it on the outside… something is coming @dollybeauty 💄.”
DOLLY PARTON’S HEAVEN’S KISS
The post quickly gained traction, with fans eager to get their hands on the new products.
The initial launch, titled the ‘Heaven’s Kiss’ collection, will be available on the brand’s website from 22 August.
It features four lipstick shades, each named after one of Dolly’s classic songs.
DOLLY PARTON’S CLASSIC SONGS
Alongside Jolene Red, the collection includes Honey Plum, Rosebud, and Birthday Suit. “I like to name my products after songs,” Dolly revealed in an interview with WWD.
The lipsticks, priced at $20 (R 385) each, will be housed in gold packaging, beautifully adorned with rhinestones. This is a nod to Dolly’s signature glitzy style.
Dolly’s love for makeup is no secret. She’s been known for her bold, glamorous looks throughout her career.
FOR THE LOVE OF RHINESTONE
Speaking about her inspiration for the brand, Dolly Parton shared, “I’ve always said I never leave a rhinestone unturned.
I’ve wanted to be pretty my whole life like most girls, especially country girls that have a dream of glamour.”
Her passion for makeup started early. “I started creating my own little makeup things at home when I was just a kid.
POTENTIAL WIG LINE
I’ve been known for wearing makeup—usually too much—for years,” she added with a laugh.
But Dolly Parton’s not stopping at lipsticks, according to New Beauty.
She has big plans to expand Dolly Beauty into a full makeup line, including eye and complexion products.
“I’ve always loved makeup, and when we did the fragrance, makeup seemed like the next step,” she explained.
She has also hinted at the possibility of launching her own wig line in the future.
BEAUTY MOGULS
“I’ve always wanted my own wig line,” Dolly shared, which would be a perfect complement to her already iconic look.
Dolly Beauty comes after the successful launch of her fragrance line, ‘Scent From Above’, in 2021.
It’s clear that Dolly Parton is making her mark in the beauty industry, joining the ranks of fellow beauty moguls like Beyoncé, Rihanna, and Blake Lively.
STYLE AND PASSION
With her unique style and passion for glamour, there’s no doubt that Dolly Beauty will be a hit.
As Dolly Parton herself says, “You never know if you’re going to wreck the bus, you never know if you’re going to be somewhere in a hotel and there’s going to be a fire.
So I leave my makeup on at night and clean my face in the morning.” With Dolly Beauty, looking glamorous just got a little bit easier for everyone.
