Introducing MAC Prêt-à-Papier. Available April 22nd– July 2010.

Craft-paper couture – an inspired idea cut like a pattern and whipped up into a frisky little “Funny Face” frock. The Prêt-à-Papier collection was a Project Runway challenge of sorts, with paper as the source, the instigator of ideas, the beginning of something simply, basically beautiful. Lipstick, Lipglass, Eye Shadow, Paint Pot, Chromagraphic Pencil, Studio Fix Lash, Impeccable Brow Pencil, Sheertone and Mineralize Blushes, and Nail Lacquer in a seamless spectrum of parchment-to-vellum beiges, with an occasional, clever colour spill, coral among the most au courant.
