MAC is getting the Jeremy Scott treatment thanks to a new makeup collaboration with the designer. Scott was brought on to introduce a limited-edition line of shades in his colorful and Jeremy-esque aesthetic. Scott, who most recently collaborated with Ugg on bedazzled boots and shoes, follows in the footsteps of MAC’s colorful lineup of collaborators, including Hello Kitty, Giambattista Valli, The Simpsons, Wonder Woman, Selena, and more.
The limited edition lineup, out February 8 at maccosmetics.com, is inspired by Scott’s love for music—just check out the packaging. Compacts resemble a boombox, mixtape, and CD, to name a few.
“I love how music can take a room and alter it,” he told Vogue. “It makes me feel real cozy. It’s just kind of my house’s calling card. You could have a white T-shirt and jeans on but do this full face of makeup and it’s a totally different effect than a stripped-down look. I think it’s fascinating.”
The Jeremy Scott x MAC collection features highlighter hues and shimmery finishes as well as a lip palette called “Future Emotion” featuring nine shades like cool purple, deep wine, vibrant red, dusty brown, and matte nude. The cheek palette, called “Acoustica,” comes with a pearly powder highlighter, tone pink blush, and a matte bronzing powder. As for the eye palette, called “LoFi,” think 29 shadows in metallics, brown, fuchsia, lime green, and other Jeremy-approved shades.
