Rihanna's first perfume will reflect her strong personality. The "Only Girl (In The World)" singer's debut fragrance -- Reb'l Fleur -- will be befitting of her independent character and designers behind the fragrance say she has been more hands on than most in coming up with the perfect scent.

"This is not a shrinking violet kind of fragrance," said Kathleen Galvin, vice president of marketing and advertising at Parlux, which has developed the perfume with the star.

The title of the scent is a reference to a nickname Rihanna's grandmother gave her when she was growing up in Barbados, and she has also had it tattooed on her. Rihanna, 22, has long been known to mix different existing perfumes to create her own signature scent and said she wanted her own perfume to reflect the her roots in Barbados as well as her life in New York and Los Angeles.

She has described what she wanted to create as "like high heels with a short, flirty dress."

Dita Von Teese wants her own make-up line. The burlesque dancer, who was a spokesperson for the MAC AIDS Fund in 2006 and 2007, says she is keen to have own cosmetics range because she feels not every woman is catered for.

"I want to do my own make-up line, because I feel like things are missing in the world. I'm constantly trying to mix up colors. Also, I mix my own body make-up. I love the idea of beautiful packaging for cosmetics. I use a lot of vintage powder compacts, and I buy vintage lipstick tubes and transfer lip colors into them. I put my MAC lipstick into my vintage Helena Rubinstein tubes. I love the look of matte, velvety lips. Every girl should have a matte red and a matte fuchsia. And that's so hard to find these days."

As well as wanting her own make-up line, Dita - who is famed for her vintage-inspired wardrobe and glamorous look - is keen to release her own fragrance because she hates smelling like anyone else:
