Billy Porter is an acclaimed American actor and singer who rose to fame on Broadway—most notably winning a Tony for playing Lola in Kinky Boots.
Grammy, Emmy and three-time Tony Award winning trailblazer Billy Porter announced the launch of his beauty brand, Black Mona Lisa Beauty—a vibrant, high-performance makeup and skincare line created for all identities, skin tones, and styles.
Built on a foundation of inclusivity, creativity, and self-expression, Black Mona Lisa offers expressive eyeshadows, to bold lip shades, to luxury skincare — each product is a celebration of individuality.
Billy Porter stated, “Black Mona Lisa Beauty was created from my desire to give all people everything they need to feel beautiful. I have always loved makeup, and my vision is a beauty space where diversity isn’t a feature, it’s the foundation, regardless of skin tone, gender, or style. In a world where children have to grow up so fast, I think parents will feel comfortable with their younger children exploring with these products. This is only the beginning – my journey is unfolding and Black Mona Lisa Beauty will evolve alongside me.”
