Fall is just around the corner and you know what that means: new make-up colours for the new fall 2009 season!
MAC Cosmetics has a whole new collection for this upcoming period and what really makes this collection spark is the collaboration with three artists, painter Richard Phillips, illustrator Maira Kalman and photographer Marilyn Minter.
With the help with these three artists, they have changed the way MAC make-up looks and means.
1) For Richard Phillips, he has taken one of his own paintings and gave it a MAC make-up makeover. The vibrant colours from the MAC palette jump out in his work of art and highlights the possibilities of MAC makeup. The lip colour really speaks to me and I think many of you will look twice at the ruby redness of this woman’s lips.
Some other interesting lipstick ($14 USD/$16.50 CAD) colours are:
* Front Lit – a nice nude shade
* High Strung – a dark pink and silvery shade
* Lovin’ It – and loving it I am, this is a nice rouge tint shade
* Hold the Pose – a dramatic dark brown purple hue sure to draw someone’s attention and maybe add a little mystery
* Full-Body – another bold option, but with a plum shade
But I’m sure you’re more curious about what lipglass shades ($14 USD/$16.50 CAD) are in store for the upcoming season. They all have this great frosty hint to it too.
Here some great shades:
* Young Thing – a yellow neutral color with a hint of gold mixed in
* Personal Taste – a mix of red and pink with some gold swirled in
* New Spirit – this is a pretty coral and yellow colour (sign me up on one of these!)
* On Display – a dark purple with the slightest hint of yellow
2) Next up is the vision by Maria Kalman. She’s created this illustration of a woman sitting at her table, surrounded by an abundance of bright colours. She’s used the shades of MAC’s new Technakohl Eye Liners and Eye Shadows.
Let’s take a peek at the new eye liner colours ($14.50 USD/$17.50 CAD):
* Colour Matters – lime at its brightest shade
* Obviously Orange – a dirty looking coral shade
* Artistic License – an brilliant turquoise blue
* Full of Fuchsia – a deep and dark magenta (my favourite!)
* Graphblack – a classic black that every girl can use
3) Last up is Marilyn Minter’s photographic creation that features lots of glittery colours. Her image highlights all the possible ways to put on glitter.
Some glitter to make sure you get noticed is the Pigment product ($19.50 USD/$23.50 CAD) from MAC:
* Cocomotion – this is a dirty gold and bronze colour with a hint of pearl in there
* Brash & Bold – this is a bright magenta colour
* Heritage Rouge – for something a little darker try this brownish-plum shade
* Push the Edge – for something even darker, this is a deep purple colour with a hint of pearl
This is just a little taste of what’s in store from MAC this Fall. All of these exciting bold colours and more are available starting on August 20, 2009.
