Speaking to Women’s Wear Daily, she added: ‘I’ve always said I never leave a rhinestone unturned.’
Parton is know for her hit songs like Islands In The Stream and Jolene.
‘I’ve wanted to be pretty my whole life like most girls, especially country girls that have a dream of glamour,’ the bombshell added.
‘I started creating my own little makeup things at home when I was just a kid, and I’ve been known for wearing makeup — usually too much — for years.’
The lipstick shades are called ‘Jolene Red’, ‘Honey Plum’, ‘Rosebud’ and ‘Birthday Suit’.
As well as her music, the products and brand as a whole her also influenced by her own experiences as someone who buys and wears makeup regularly.
She explained: ‘Every time I put on makeup, I’ll find certain things I want to put in the line.
‘A great, thicker gloss, or a pearly gloss, or something that I’ve used and will find in an old drawer I remember loving.
‘Lord knows, nobody wears more makeup than me, so I know all the little things I want.’
And thanks to that level of passion, Dolly wants to make sure she is hands-on in all areas of the brand.
She said: ‘I have to be involved in everything, and I sample and try things and say, ‘Oh, that’s not great, let’s go back and do this or that’.
‘Whether it being the packaging, where it says my name, I want them to think of me when they use it.’
