Beyoncé’s makeup artist of seven years, Sir John, has been doing the media rounds following his commencement as a judge on American Beauty Star — a Lifetime competition show that brings together makeup artists and hairstylists to create beauty looks — and whilst doing so has revealed his plans to launch a beauty line.
Following on from Fenty Beauty’s immense success, and other celebrity makeup artists stepping into global makeup artistry roles with major brands, a foray into namesake beauty isn’t out of the realm of possibility.
Speaking with The Cut, John answered the question of whether he would ever come out with his own makeup line, with: “I very much want to release a collection. I can’t wait to do it. So many people are putting their blueprint out there in the cosmetics industry.
“I’ve been blessed to have a great educator in L’Oreal Paris [Sir John is a L’Oreal Paris ambassador]. I’m in the labs making stuff for them, I’ve designed palettes and I’ve won awards, but I want to share this with every girl that I’ve ever met, and that I haven’t met yet. I can’t wait to have a collection and make my clients proud.”
