Gabrielle Union –  $40 Million  –  Haircare Line

Gabrielle Union may have made it big in the entertainment business with her breakthrough role in the 2000 movie Bring It On, but there’s a more prominent role waiting for her in the business world. In 2017, news broke that the now-48-year-old star made her first step toward becoming an entrepreneur by putting investment money in a beauty brand called Flawless by Gabrielle Union.

The haircare line is for women who have textured hair. It started with only ten products, from shampoos to conditioners, to blow-dry cream, and more, with prices ranging from $19 to $29. After three years, Union re-launched the brand with more effective products—now composed of biotin, rice oil, shea butter, aloe, and more. She has improved the business, wanting every client to get the best care from her brand. Union stopped using silicones, sulfates, and other bad stuff for her hair products and makes sure it’s now more accessible and affordable.
