The VH1 programme will follow the 28-year-old as she studies fashion, diets and beauty regimes across the world.
She will also participate in some of the extreme methods used by women to boost their appearance.
"I have always believed that beauty comes from within and confidence will always make a woman beautiful, but I know how much pressure some women put on themselves to look perfect," she explained.
Simpson, who faced criticism over her weight earlier this year, will also speak to other celebrities about their images and beauty tricks.
Chris Coelen, CEO of RDF Media USA, added that the star would be tackling "serious issues" on the show with a "unique and relatable blend of humour and heart".
The Price Of Beauty is scheduled to begin filming in July and will air on VH1 in 2010.
