MAC Cosmetics Launches Basquiat Collection

MAC X Basquiat features a lipstick, facial chalk, powders, brushes and more.

MAC Cosmetics partnered with the estate of Jean-Michel Basquiat for a signature beauty line.

According to the Happi Top 50 Company, MAC is celebrating one of history’s most influential NYC artists with a collaboration that “captures the spirit of his work rather than simply borrowing from it,” MAC Cosmetics contends.

Products include the debut of Oil Effect Eye Paint, a liquid eye shadow with a “smudgy, paint-like” finish; Pastel Painting Eye + Face Chalk, a buildable “chalk-inspired” facial formula, a lipstick and brushes.
