Art by Richard Phillips
I love it when cosmetics companies embrace the contemporary art scene like MAC has with fall’s Make-Up Art Cosmetics collection (arriving Aug. 20).
It’s something MAC has done before — hitching their thematic wagon to an established or up-and-coming artist — and it always seems like such a brilliant concept to me. Isn’t makeup, after all, just one of many forms of art?
For past MAC fall collections like Cult of Cherry and Smoke Signals, smokey eyes and dark lips took center stage. The color palettes differed, but both collections still fell along what I consider traditional fall makeup lines, with the addition of MAC’s much-loved theatrical flair Louis Vuitton Belts!
With the massive Make-Up Art Cosmetics collection, however, MAC created three completely different sets of products (as far as I can tell), each set designed by a different artist.

Painter Richard Phillips Coach Outlet, illustrator Maira Kalman and photographer Marilyn Minter each created an interpretation of their artwork through MAC makeup.

The concept excites me Louis Vuitton Bags, but I’m not sure what to make of the colors…
The promo pics didn’t give me heart palpitations like the ones for Cult of Cherry and Smoke Signals did, but I can’t wait to see them on counters next week discount coach handbags!
I think it’s time for another round of virtual haul in WHAT WOULD YOU GET?
Your mission, should you choose to accept it: You can choose any one of the three MAC Make-Up Art Cosmetics sub-collections from fall 2009 (one in its entirety) to take home with you. Tell me which one you’d pick in the comments.
