Victoria Beckham has said she is “excited” about teaming up with Estee Lauder to create a limited edition make-up collection.

Victoria Beckham Estee Lauder will launch in September at select retailers around the world. It will also be available in Victoria Beckham stores and on esteelauder.co.uk and victoriabeckham.com.

Victoria said: “I am thrilled to be launching this limited edition make-up collection with Estee Lauder.”

“The whole process has been both inspiring and eye-opening – from going back and revisiting the Estee Lauder archives through to working on the product with the Estee team, this feels like the perfect make-up partnership for me and my brand.”

The former Spice Girl, 41, paid tribute to the beauty brand’s co-founder Estee Lauder as she talked of her delight.

“I had long admired Estee Lauder the woman, and the powerful brand that she created, so I am excited to offer both of our customers this make-up range and play a small part in her vision for women.”

Jane Hertzmark Hudis, group president of the Estee Lauder Companies, said: “We are excited to join forces and bring Victoria’s take on beauty to her many fans around the world.”

She went on to laud Victoria, whose fashion brand launched in 2008 and is now stocked in more than 50 countries, likening her to the late Estee Lauder.

“Victoria is an entrepreneur in the true spirit of our founder, Estee Lauder, with a real understanding of what women want, and a commitment to making women look and feel their most beautiful.”

New York-born Estee Lauder, who died in 2004, was one of the world’s first female entrepreneurs.
