Hollywood star Brad Pitt has landed in fresh legal trouble after being sued by a skincare company over alleged trademark infringement.

The Malibu-based brand, Beau D, has accused the actor of using branding that closely resembles its own and is now seeking damages in the lawsuit.

Beau D launched in 2020 with a luxe lip salve and a 'D. Cream', and has accused Pitt's skincare line, Beau Domaine, of false designation of origin and common-law unfair competition.

The brand is seeking compensation for damages over $75K and wants Pitt's line to stop using the Beau Domaine name altogether.

Pitt's line was originally named Le Domaine, but underwent a major rebranding and repositioning effort last year, changing its name to Beau Domaine.
