Texas is a state of innovation, creation and plain hard work. Many of the nation's top brands are either headquartered or manufactured in Texas. From Dr Pepper to Southwest Airlines, Texas is a king of industry.

But what about the beauty industry? Americans spend an average of $200 a year on beauty products. (Personally, I spend much more than that). Since there's over 330 million Americans, it's an industry raking in over $66 billion a year. And Texas is taking its fair share with both classic and up-and-coming popular beauty brands. Make-up, haircare and salon services are all well represented in the Lone Star State.

Here are some of the most popular beauty brands either developed or headquartered in Texas.
