Who invested in JLo Beauty

Jennifer Lopez

Lopez has been an active consumer and tech angel, with most of her best-documented bets made jointly with former fiancé Alex Rodriguez.

When: Founded and launched January 2021. Developed through Ascendant Beauty LLC, a joint venture between direct marketer Guthy-Renker and BRX GR LLC, an entity registered to Lopez — so she is a co-owner, not a licensor.
Why: The direct answer to her fragrance experience: she wanted equity in a beauty business carrying her name rather than a royalty on someone else's.
Status: Left Sephora's US physical stores by March 2024, roughly three years after launch, while staying on Sephora's US website, at Macy's and in Sephora stores outside the US. Founding CEO Lisa Sequino departed to run Supergoop shortly before the Sephora exit.
