What is James Charles’ Net Worth?

James Charles is an American internet personality, makeup artist, and model who has a net worth of $22 million. James Charles Dickinson was born in Bethlehem, New York, on May 23, 1999. He is most known for his YouTube channel focused on makeup and beauty. In 2016, he was named the first male ambassador for CoverGirl. Charles is also openly gay.

Career

Charles has been able to successfully translate his online popularity into several lucrative deals. In 2016, at the age of 17, he was named the first male brand ambassador for CoverGirl, where he worked alongside pop star Katy Perry . He is also the face of the brand So Lashy! By BlastPro Mascara. An accomplished makeup artist, Charles did the makeup for rapper Iggy Azalea’s music video for the song “Sally Walker” in March 2019.

In 2018, Charles released an eyeshadow palette in collaboration with Morphe Cosmetics. The “Morphe x James Charles” palette has 39 shades and retails for $39. At its initial drop on November 14, 2018, the palette sold out fully in Europe in less than 6 minutes. In January 2019, Morphe Cosmetics invited him to the company’s second UK store opening in Birmingham, England. Over 7000 fans showed up to the opening to see him, disrupting traffic and bringing the city center to a standstill.

In addition to his career in the beauty industry, Charles has also ventured into modeling, walking on the runway for fashion brand MarcoMarco ’s “Six ½” collection during Los Angeles Fashion Week in 2017. In 2019, he was also the first Instagram influencer to be invited to The Met Gala.

Merchandise

James is the founder of a clothing line called Sisters Apparel. When the line was initially launched, it was powered by Jeffree Star’s Killer Merch fulfillment services. After James and Jeffree got into a feud, which we detail in the next paragraph, Sisters Apparel was briefly taken offline in May 2019. The company was relaunched a month later with a new distributor.

Controversies

Charles is no stranger to controversy and has several under his belt already. In February 2017, Charles tweeted a joke about Africa and the Ebola virus that many deemed offensive. He later apologized, saying “there are no excuses” for what he said.
