Gwen Stefani has teamed up with Urban Decay.

The 45-year-old singer has become the cosmetic brand’s first ever celebrity collaborator after she was plucked by the company’s Chief Creative Officer Wende Zomnir to work with her and the team on a limited edition collection.

Speaking to Yahoo Beauty, the blonde stunner said: “When Urban Decay came to me to collaborate, I immediately knew it was a perfect match. The way they’ve built their company is very similar to my aesthetic and approach.”

She added: “Everyone in my life knows I absolutely love makeup. From a very young age, it was an artistic passion of mine. I actually used to be a makeup artist.

“I love wearing makeup and having so many ways to express myself through it. It’s my war paint.”

But it’s not just makeup the ‘Hollaback Girl’ hitmaker and the brand are working on as they also teamed up to drive the charity organisation The Ultraviolet Edge, which is a global initiative to empower women.

Wende explained: “We’ve wanted to make this project happen for years, and finally it was the right time. We found a true partner in Gwen, and it was amazing to channel her energy and creativity into these products. She truly represents the Urban Decay spirit.”

Meanwhile, the limited edition makeup collection is set to hit shelves in the UK and the US on November 22.
