Get ready to shine, as M•A•C ignites the holidays with a collection inspired by the fairytale of surprise, delight and ambient beauty of fireworks. Take this explosion of twinkling colour and add in an ultra-luxe dose of frosted luminosity – because who doesn’t love a little more glow through the festive period? – and it’s easy to see why Frosted Firework is set to be the most covetable makeup collection of the season.

Wrapping up everything you need and all that you could want for the holidays in a decadently desirable edit of super-flattering iridescence, Frosted Firework invites you to step into a wonderland of party-ready looks and create myriad moments to dazzle. From updates on the classics of red lips and smoky eyes, to mesmerizing metallic liners and all-about-skin-lustre polished naturals, Frosted Firework makes the festive season come alive in gleaming, super-pretty looks.

With five Foil Shadows ranging from sultry silvers to burnished smoked pinks and three Dual Ended Powerpoint Eye Liners selected in perfectly complementary pearlized duos, eyes are wrapped in lustre. “I am always seduced by the royal feeling of metallic shades of eyeshadow tones in Platinum, Gold and deep ruby red. The rich pigments and diverse frosty textures are easy to blend and suitable for both sheer and glamourous eye looks,” says Massimo Moller, Senior Artist, EMEA , of the versatility and hypnotic beauty that comes from these softly metallic eye shades. Indeed, “metal has been a dominant trend backstage this season, from washes of shimmer-highlighted skin to fully loaded amber eyeshadow or even gold-foiled baroque details,” he adds, making the curated cut of five foil shadows of this collection the perfect lineup for tuning into trend as well as showcasing your natural beauty this season.

For lips, things are no less pumped up with glamour. With five Lipsticks in winter frost to deep berry shades and textures, five ethereal dusty-pink Lipglass tones, the time is now to layer lips in a glaze of luscious iced colour. As Moller adds, “To me, lipstick stands for a manifesto of beauty; these matte-to-glaze textures in cherry-wine nuances are meant for all occasions and personalities.”
