Despite the significance of her financial milestone, the pop star chose not to caption the image.
She let the moment speak for itself.
Rare Beauty, which Gomez launched in 2020, has been a game-changer in the beauty industry, according to Elle.
The brand’s inclusive approach and high-quality products have resonated with consumers worldwide. This contributed significantly to her newfound billionaire status.
SELENA GOMEZ AND INCLUSIVITY
Speaking about Rare Beauty’s mission last year, Gomez said, “I really tried my hardest to create a product that was beyond just me putting my name on something.
I wanted the products to be great. I also wanted the message to be that makeup is meant to be fun.”
Her vision for the brand extends beyond cosmetics, according to The Sun.
SELENA GOMEZ ON MENTAL HEALTH
Gomez has made it clear that Rare Beauty is about creating a safe and welcoming space in the beauty industry.
She has emphasised that the brand supports mental well-being across various demographics. These include age, gender identity, sexual orientation, race, cultural background, and physical or mental ability.
Her commitment to inclusivity and mental health has set Rare Beauty apart from its competitors. It has also struck a chord with consumers, driving its tremendous success.

But Rare Beauty isn’t Gomez’s only source of income.

After receiving an Emmy nomination for her role in Only Murders in the Building, Selena Gomez said “Acting has, and will always be, my heart.
There’s so much that I want to do and that I haven’t even scratched the surface of, and it’s exciting to me.”
Her love for the craft, combined with her business acumen, suggests that Gomez’s career is far from reaching its peak.
