The American actress is now a beauty brand founder, with her debut ‘strengthening’ hair care range launching on 4 August

American actress Blake Lively is launching her own hair care line Blake Brown.

The eight-piece vegan collection comprises shampoos, masks and styling products inspired by the Gossip Girl and The Age of Adaline star’s personal hair care regimen.  

The products alternate between a ‘strengthening’ and ‘nourishing’ system which claim to leave hair “healthy and strong”.

Blake Brown said the brand has been seven years in the making and created in partnership with privately-held beauty group Give Back Beauty.

 “Performance was paramount,” said Lively.  

“We were uncompromising, which is why it took an absurd amount of time, but the products show our level of dedication and strict quality control.

"I was determined to bottle up a premium, salon-quality hair care line that is cleaner, cruelty-free, easier, yummier, more sustainable and more accessible than anything I saw out there.”

Styling products include The Dry Shampoo, Glam Mousse and All-in-Wonder Leave-In Potion. 

The products are free-from sulfates, silicones, parabens and synthetic dyes and are formulated with scents inspired by Blake’s favourite fragrances

“Blake’s drive, purpose and instincts in developing this brand were unmatched,” said Give Back Beauty founder Corrado Brondi.

“From the meticulously crafted formulations to their exquisite fragrances, Blake had her hands, or should we say hair, in everything.

“And had a clear directive about how she wanted the brand to look, feel and smell.”

Give Back Beauty's Prestige Division includes fragrance licences for luxury brands such as Zegna, Elie Saab and Chopard.

Blake Brown products range from US$18.99 to $24.99.

The collection is available on blakebrownbeauty.com and exclusively at Target from 4 August.
