Paint it Black

Heavy in black, hardware embellishments, leather and mixing and matching of different pieces and styles, high fashion seems to be reverting to an angst-y, teenager phase. MAC Cosmetics has caught onto this trend and has created a collection based entirely on black. MAC’s Style Black Collection gives you all the tools you need to declare your independence and celebrate your magnetism.

Style Black has everything you need for a Gareth Pugh-inspired makeup look. But, be forewarned; this collection is not for the faint of heart, so use it wisely. Although not everyone will be able to rock Black Knight, a creamy, true black lipstick, the eye shadows would benefit any beauty buff looking to mix up her standard smoky-eye routine.

Pick any of the four black, color-infused shadows (Cinderella, Young Punk, Gilt by Association or Blue Flame) and top it off with Blackware, a creamy black Glimmerglass, to give you that very-sought-after glossy lid look.

According to MAC Cosmetics, “Style Black is a way of life. A shadowy and mysteriously figure of fantasy, even for just one dark and dangerous night.”
