Contouring can be essential in accentuating features that we already have and of course cheating some features we may not have.
Patrick Starrr is taking over MAC Cosmetics once again! The popular beauty guru announced another capsule in collaboration with the brand dubbed “Destination Diva.” Patrick is all about excessive glamour, so the name of the collection embodies his larger-than-life personality. The makeup artist spilled the beans on Instagram with a teaser video.
MAC Cosmetics is one of the busiest brands out there, with a new drop almost every single day. They are also known for the limited-edition collections they debut every season. To celebrate the last month of summer, the label is treating all of their fans with a brand new collection. The Supreme Beam Summer 2018 line is made of 18 fun products. If you are into glossy, shiny, iridescent looks, this line was made for you. MAC focused on flawless, ethereal skin and statement lips with the new releases.
The long-awaited MAC collection that pays tribute to the iconic Aaliyah is finally here. What not many people knew is that the label collaborated with the late singer’s brother Rashad Houghton. The whole family was very involved in the choice of shades and names.
“My mother keeps everything ‚Äö√Ñ√∂‚àö√ë‚àö√Ü she’s incredible. She still has baby albums and books, so she actually had a lot of my sister’s M.A.C. products, so we really started from that bold lip that Aaliyah’s known for. [The fans] knew that if we had an M.A.C. line that really focuses on bringing some of those archived looks back while thinking about the future, it would be incredible. All we wanted to do was represent her illustrious career, so we wanted to have looks and products that really represented her songs, represented really important moments in her life. Every pencil, every lip gloss, lipstick, or powder has a name that represents the color, of course, but also represents a part of her personality or song.”- Rashad said.
If you are old enough to remember Aaliyah, you probably can recall her statement makeup looks that were always bold and beautiful. The singer loved using MAC products, and her fans were obsessed with everything she put on her face. Her mother still has some of the brand’s items that Aaliyah kept in her makeup bag. That’s why the label decided to collaborate with both the fans and the family to do the collection justice.
There is one thing we all can’t wait to see and try. Aaliyah was a huge fan of lip glosses, so MAC included four new Lip Glass shades. The shimmery peach color is called “Li Li’s Motor City”, the sparkly dark berry is “1 In A Million”, and a deep fierce burgundy named “At Your Best You Are”. For all the ladies who prefer softer lip shades, they can go with the pearly shimmery “Brooklyn Born” color.
When it comes to the lipstick shades they are as amazing as the lip glasses. For that recognizable Aaliyah bold lip, you should opt for the sparkling black “Sweet Thing” shade. The brand and the family included two red hues, “More Than a Woman” (dark red) and “Hot Like‚Äö√Ñ√∂‚àö√묨‚àÇ” lipstick (fierce red tone). Last but not least, the prettiest nude named after her most popular song “If You Don’t Succeed.” To finish off with the lip look you will need one of the two lip pencils: “Nevermore” (black) or “Follow Your Heart” (red).
The Aaliyah collection also features a nine-pan eyeshadow palette, which the brand already teased a few months ago. MAC now revealed that the official name is “Age Ain’t Nothing.” The face product in the line is a bronzing powder named after another huge hit “Baby Girl”. You can start saving up for June 20, when the line will drop online, and June 21 in stores.

The collaborations between Patrick Starrr and MAC are so hot that the brand decided to bless us with one more. Just in time for summer, the beloved makeup giant is dropping a brand new Patrick Starrr line. The influencer’s third collection with the label is titled Diva Feva. It will give you serious tropical vibes, so watch with caution. You can now travel to an isolated island thanks to Patrick’s creative releases. The line will feature five new drops, ideal for the hot summer days. Knowing his creative way of doing makeup, you probably already know what to expect.
The most important makeup product for summer is the bronzer. That’s why Starrr included not one, but two bronzers. The Give Me Life Bronzing Powder is an essential and will get you that extra tan, without too much effort. The Hot and Heavy Opalescent Face Powder is a pressed highlighter with a beautiful golden shimmer, to make your face shine all day long.
If you are obsessed with MAC’s iconic lipglass, Starrr got you covered. The mega-popular influencer is all about shiny, glossy lips. So, he decided to include two new shades of the lipglass. Cream Pie features a pretty baby pink hue, while Fashion Punch is a gorgeous light peach tone.
For those statement lids this season, you can use Patrick’s gorgeous quad eyeshadow palette. Sandy Crotch will help you achieve a pearlescent orange-hued look. Ruddy is the perfect coppery red with golden undertones. Brash also carries some extra gold shimmer added to the brick red shade. Mabuhay is a shimmery peachy shade.
If you want to get that special summer glow, but you’re not hitting the beach until late summer, you can easily fake it with the Patrick Diva Feva products. MAC once again gave the beauty influencer complete freedom in creating the makeup products. This time he was all in by directing the video and planning the advertisement. In the short promo video, you’ll see the makeup guru all dressed up and accessorized in bold hues, surrounded by handsome guys.
Patrick’s first collection for MAC was released half a year ago. The products sold out almost right away and fans asked for more. A few months later, they decided to take the second turn and launch the Floral Realness spring line. The best thing is that you have to wait only days until the Diva Feva line drops. It will launch on mac.com on June 7 and in select MAC stores.

According to the press release the formula is “whipped for mousse-like texture” and the lip glosses are described as “funfetti-bright, frosted opaque hues for lips”. The effect is very much like a frosting to your pout, so no wonder that all of the shades were inspired by desserts. Wild Berry Frosting is the coolest blue color you’ve ever seen! Another impressive shade is Key Lime Truffle, a vibrant shimmery green tone.

MAC won’t seem to stop with amazing collaborations. Each week the brand announces a new partnership with labels from all spheres of the industry. We’re still haven’t gotten over the gorgeousness of the Patrick Starr spring collection, and now MAC strikes again. They just announced a joined line with Puma, which will drop very soon.
It’s all based on the concept that now you can match your sneakers to your favorite lipstick. Lipsticks are the essential makeup product that ladies use every single day. MAC is an iconic brand that has provided women with amazing goodies for so many years now. The brand has several top-selling lip shades, sold all around the world. Now those same hues can be a part of your outfit. MAC first teased the collection in November, and since then we’ve all been waiting for the day when they finally reveal the pieces.
The brand already shared their excitement for the collab with a cute video on Instagram. “Kicks that match our lips?! YES, PLEASE! M•A•C has joined forces with @puma @pumasportstyle to create limited-edition suede sneakers inspired by our iconic Lipsticks Lady Danger, Créme d’Nude, and Sin! #PUMAxMAC#FORALLTIME’.
Puma and the makeup label teamed up to create three exclusive sneaker designs that will match MAC’s highest-selling lipstick colors. The sportswear brand reworked their popular Suede Design and added a chic edge with the new colors. Sin, Cr‚Äö√†√∂¬¨√Üme d’Nude, and Lady Danger are the tree tones that were used as a starting point for the collection. All three pairs are made of a gorgeous suede material, with MAC’s signature logo stitched to the tongue.
Sin is the most beautiful deep plum shade that looks ideal on the lips. Puma upgraded the chic suede sneaker design in the matching color as the Sin lipstick. The Lady Danger kicks are done in a fierce orangey-red, to match the eye-catching lipstick. Cr‚Äö√†√∂¬¨√Üme d’Nude is heaven for all the nude-lovers. This sneaker style features a gorgeous peachy nude tone with hints of soft pink.
MAC is one of the most innovative labels in the industry with numerous collaborations that are an enjoyment for everyone. Recently they joined with the fashion-forward brand Nicopanda and released the colorful collection two weeks ago. The cool partnership with Jeremy Scott, the ones with Jade Jagger, and Padma Lakshmi are all so good, that we simply can’t get enough. The MAC x Puma line will be released sometime in May. Each pair will retail for $90, while the matching lipsticks will cost $19.
