Dolly Parton is entering the beauty industry. The country legend announced the debut of Dolly Beauty and gave fans a preview of the new collection of lipsticks on Thursday (Aug. 22).
“I believe beauty comes from within, but a little red lipstick never hurt,” Parton captioned a video on X announcing the collection.
Dolly Beauty is an expansion of Parton’s bestselling fragrance partnership with Scent Fragrances. The Scent From Above collection — which includes Early Morning Breeze, Dancing Fireflies and Smokey Mountain — was released in 2021.
“All of my life I’ve wanted to be pretty, and my new cosmetic line is going to allow me and you to be our very best,” Parton said in a statement. “So, fly pretty, up, up and away. Enjoy!”
