There’s no doubt about it: From self-taught makeup artist to music icon, Gwen Stefani has always forged her own path. Now the GXVE BEAUTY founder, who made playing dress-up and getting glam an art form, is releasing her limited-edition IPSY Icon Box collection. This February, Icon Box by Gwen Stefani will be your backstage pass to her best-loved products and bombshell secrets for blazing your own beauty trail.

No one understands the transformative power of makeup better than Gwen. Through her ever-evolving style to her new makeup brand GXVE (pronounced “give”) BEAUTY and her Icon Box collab, the trendsetter is showing you how to amplify all the parts of yourself that deserve to shine and morph into any role you’re playing—boss babe, rockstar mom, or all of the above—with confidence.

The chart-topper’s exclusive Icon Box is a celebration of everything that defines her—from her Orange County roots to her early days as a mall makeup artist, when she first discovered her lifelong passion for self-expression and all things beauty. “Before there was music, there was makeup,” says Gwen. “As a little girl, I used to spend hours watching Turner Classic Movies and was always fascinated by old Hollywood glam and all things vintage. Then I got a job at a department store in Anaheim, CA, and they let me work behind the makeup counter. It was one of the most fun jobs I’ve ever had.”

“It was so rewarding to see the way people felt when they had their makeup done, which is really the reason I started GXVE BEAUTY in the first place,” Gwen continues. “I feel like my whole life has built to this moment. I did my own makeup through most of my career touring with No Doubt, and I’ve been the face of some of the world’s biggest beauty brands, but owning my brand and having full creative control is a dream come true. I’m really proud of what we have developed, and I can’t wait to see the looks the IPSY community creates with my Icon Box collection.”

This bronzer is basically a golden glow in stick form. It’s super easy to swipe on your face and blends seamlessly for a second-skin finish. Made with a botanical blend of lotus, gardenia, and white water lily, the formula even helps to soothe, calm, and nourish your skin.

3. CHARLOTTE TILBURY Beautiful Skin Foundation (MSRP $49)

We’ve found it! A foundation that provides the medium coverage you crave while still looking just like skin. It’s also packed with some serious skincare goodness, like hyaluronic acid (hello, hydration!), rose complex (to help brighten and smooth), and Bix-Activ (to help reduce shine and blur the look of pores).

4. DRUNK ELEPHANT Wonderwild™ Miracle Butter (MSRP $38)

Meet your dry-skin miracle: this multi-use salve that helps soothe chapped, irritated, or compromised skin. Restorative plant butters (like marula, mango, and shea) help shield your skin from environmental stressors, while antioxidant- and fatty acid-rich plant oils (like pumpkin, green tea seed, and rosehip) deeply nourish and help strengthen.
