Ashley Tisdale shared a #TBT (Throwback Thursday) post on Facebook in July 2020, reminiscing about her time as a Ford model. She mentioned that she had to retire early when she realized she would only reach a height of 5’3″.

Despite her petite stature of 5ft 2 ½ inches, Ashley Tisdale often appears even shorter when standing beside her husband, Christopher French, who is 6’1″ (1.85 m) tall.

While Ashley Tisdale’s height may make her stand out among towering celebrities, her confidence and style shine through in every aspect of her life, including her ventures into the beauty industry.

From launching her makeup line to making bold fashion statements at events like BeautyCon, Ashley proves that stature is no barrier to success or fashion-forward choices. Let’s look at how she uses her style to amplify her presence on the red carpet and in business.

Ashley Tisdale’s Beauty Line: From Launch to Closure

If you’re a celebrity with a makeup line, going to the annual BeautyCon is mandatory.

The “High School Musical” star is just one of a lengthening list of celebrities who have released makeup lines. In 2016, Ashley teamed up with BH Cosmetics to launch her new product line “Illuminate by Ashley Tisdale.”

In 2018, she revamped her makeup line, Illuminate by Ashley, which was no longer affiliated with BH Cosmetics. In February 2020, Ashley Tisdale announced the closure of her beauty brand after four years in operation.

In an Instagram post, Tisdale cited the challenges of managing her acting career alongside the brand and the increasing number of celebrity makeup lines as reasons to end Illuminate.

Givenchy Freya Sandals: A Sold-Out Style with Similar Options

Ashley’s beauty line was marketed with the tagline “because beauty is supposed to illuminate you.” However, some product names, such as “Beach Goddess” and “Night Goddess, ” were criticized for being uninspired.

While more creative names and taglines could have been developed, ultimately, the quality of the makeup matters most. The Givenchy “Freya” shoes have sold out online, but a similar pair from the same designer, the “Retra,” is available on Farfetch.
