Kitten with a Whip: MAC's Hello Kitty Collection

It is currently available online and hits the counters this Thursday, February 12th. The collection boasts some serious stunning lippies along with Hello Kitty accessories. This Hello Kitty interpretation has been given the MAC treatment. This version of Hello Kitty is a naughty coquette. One of my dear friends, Jessica(who is officially a DR this week!), took these shots at Henri Bendels in NYC.
The man kitty kinda scares me.

Since Hello Kitty does not have a visible mouth, the first quality that came to mind is that she must have lashes that make a statement:
They are wispy, flirtatious, and crisscross - because she is all about batting her lashes. It’s so much about the eyes that we did two eye shadow
quads that combine classic, more traditional colours such as a smoky, taupe brown and a slightly sparkly black with shades that really pop, like
turquoise and a violet, bright plum juxtaposed with coral and a hot, hot pink which is very playful. We incorporated glitter eye liners because
she loves anything that twinkles, and we took the coral and hot pink theme and did pretty, poppy blush.
Playing on pink is a nod to her girliness but it is less of a baby-pink and more of a grown-up fuchsia shade. To appeal to the younger
Hello Kitty fan we created these fabulous lip conditioners in colours like yellow pink and dusky rose that were all over the runways,
and made the gloss extremely translucent by taking the heavy pigment out and making it almost see-through and dimensional,
reminiscent of cellophane. We didn’t think that a matte lip properly represented M·A·C Hello Kitty’s feminine nature, so we created
products that project glaze and lustre by skipping the sumptuous, sensuous mouth that could be perceived as heavy or campy and
opting for light and glossy instead. The collection is for all ages, but it’s about a younger attitude. It is light, fresh and fun.
