In total, the 30 entrepreneurs on the Beauty Rich List boast a combined estimated wealth of £2.174billion.
The list includes 19 women and 14 men, with ages spanning from 27-year-old Darcy Laceby, co-founder of Absolute Collagen, to 84-year-old Mike Harris of The Belgravia Clinic.
Joining Laceby in her twenties are Jess Hunt and Ama Amo-Agyei, further highlighting the industry’s ability to foster young talent.
Compiled by the same team behind The Sunday Times Rich List, Robert Watts, compiler of the list said: “There are so many inspiring people with rags to riches stories here.
“Our Beauty List includes someone who came to the UK as a child refugee and another who was homeless and camping in woodland during his teens.
“There are others who left school with few or no qualifications to their name, one who was expelled.
“We have entries who suffered hair loss and very serious skin conditions that led them to create their own treatments which they later started to sell.
“All these people went on to build successful beauty brands making products people love, creating jobs, contributing decent sums to the public finances and of course making many of us look and feel a lot better along the way.”
Phoebe McDowell, beauty and interiors director of The Sunday Times, added: “Beauty is big business, and this inaugural list demonstrates the power of creativity and innovation in the sector.
“These entrepreneurs have not only built brands but changed the way we think about hair, makeup, and skincare.”
