Beauty and Home Care Are Starting to Merge

Chores are about to get a whole lot chicer.

High-end beauty brands are infiltrating the homewares market with new products meant to elevate everything from washing laundry to doing dishes, and make sure things smell good along the way.

There’s an ultra-luxe laundry detergent from LVMH Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton-backed Maison Francis Kurkdjian, a room spray meant to purify the air from Courteney Cox’s Homecourt, plus an intention-oriented fragrance diffuser from Kris Jenner’s Safely.

There’s a strong business case behind the bevy of new products —  Fortune Business Insights reports the market for household cleaning products will reach over $334 billion by 2029.

Here, some of the products cashing in on the buzz.
