National Lipstick Day 2018

Too much lipstick? NEVER!
M∙A∙C Cosmetics celebrates National Lipstick Day which is coming up on July 29 like no other brand due to its authority in lip colour. Therefore lipstick lovers are treated to their lip favourites as M∙A∙C Cosmetics is giving away free lipsticks when you spend more than CHF 35.00.

Lipstick has been popular for thousands of years around the globe. As our ancestors didn’t have the variety of waxes and oils we have today, they had to get creative and made lipstick out of everything from crushed beetles to berries to ground up fish scales mixed with oil. Just be glad you don’t have to wear beetles this July for National Lipstick Day!

M∙A∙C Cosmetics has shades for every day, place and vibe offering a variety of textures, and saturated bold colours. Interesting to know is that the American beauty brand sells more than one lipstick every second around the world with «Chili» being its best-selling lipstick (11 Chili’s are sold per minute globally). The highly recognizable M·A·C Lipstick in «Ruby Woo» is the second best-selling bullet (7 Ruby Woo’s are sold per minute globally).

In Switzerland available on July 28 and 29, 2018 online and at Zurich (Bellevue) store, Lucerne (train station), Jelmoli Zurich, Manor Zurich, Manor Lausanne, Manor Geneva, Globus Geneva, Globus Lausanne, and Manor Lugano.

M∙A∙C’s cult-favourite hydrating mist, Prep + Prime Fix+, takes on a delicious new twist in four permanent scents: rose, lavender, coconut and our original sugi needle aroma.
Water, vitamins and extracts give skin an instant boost of hydration while the lightweight prolonging formula sets makeup and refreshes your complexion. Try it, you will thank me forever! I use it on a daily base! Sheer out foundation, intensify colour, improve and extend the wear of makeup, or moisturize and soothe tired skin with the holy grail of hydrating mists.

M∙A∙C x Nicki Minaj

I love nude lipsticks. Therefore I am all excited about this new collaboration between rap queen Nicki Minaj and M∙A∙C Cosmetics. Both have worked together to develop two nude, sophisticated lipsticks, of which one is named after her 2014 album of the same name:

Nicki’s Nudesoft corally pink (amplified)
The Pinkprintmid-tone creamy pink (amplified)

Minaj teased that she and M∙A∙C Cosmetics have more big news coming in 2018. This is the rapper’s first collaboration with the makeup brand since designing a lavender lipstick for them for their 2012 Viva Glam campaign. I am curious what will be coming up next…

Limited Edition, available 7th September, 2017 at all M∙A∙C locations, M∙A∙C Stores and at maccosmetics.ch for CHF 28.00 each.
