If there’s one diva that has massively influenced the definition of sexiness over the decades it’s definitely Marilyn Monroe. The diva has become a symbol of sultriness and it comes as no surprise that her amazing beauty has become the source of inspiration for many products. MAC Cosmetics is currently paying a tribute to the diva with a collection which helps women recreate a similar sultry look. The collection will only hit the shelves later this year, but this doesn’t stop us from enjoying the offerings, at least visually, right now.
The new collection comes with a multitude of fun choices and an ultra classy packaging that fits the diva’s allure. Artistic touches and a series of ultra flattering tones are the focus of the newest MAC collection which proves fairly comprehensive. Here are some of the alternatives the label brings for the new season:
Lipstick Who could ever forget Marilyn’s signature red lips which put her infectious smile in the spotlight every single time? To pull off a similarly flattering look the label brings not one but five lipstick tones to ensure you’re able to find the perfect match for your skin tone. Go for one or more of these feminine and ultra seductive alternatives: Deeply Adored – Deep scarlet (Matte) Charmed I’m Sure – Dark true red (Matte) Pure Zen – Warm nude (Cremesheen) Love Goddess – Mid-tone pink red (Satin) Scarlet Ibis – Bright orange red (Matte)
To emphasize your lips even more you can also pair up these tones with one of these three permanent lip pencil tones: Beet – Vivid reddish-pink, Redd – Clearly red, Cherry – Vivid bright blue/red.
Powder Blush & Beauty Powder Creating a proper canvas is essential no matter what type of makeup you’re trying to pull off. For this purpose, the label suggests Forever Marilyn, a sheer pale peach highlighter.
