MAC Hello Kitty: Q &A with Jennifer Balbier SVP Product Development, MAC Worldwide

Here is a Q &A with Jennifer Balbier SVP Product Development, MAC Worldwide about the latest from MAC Cosmetics: MAC Hello Kitty.

How did the MAC Hello Kitty partnership inspire your own product development process?
To me, MAC Hello Kitty embodies the ultimate beauty icon: No one is more alluring yet incredibly cute and at the same time appeals to a wider range of customers than she does, it doesn’t matter how old you are. Hello Kitty is the ultimate girly girl and guys like her too. She is coy and I couldn’t help but be reminded of how you never really know what she’s thinking. We wanted to reflect that mysterious quality through a sweet side, but also something slightly mischievous when it came to the colours. I started out by creating a palette of pinks, since they fit and always trend well in the spring, but we also incorporated black into the collection to give it a sophisticated edge as well, and moved forward from there.

Can you tell us more about who this girl is?
I see her as a playful, coquettish girly girl with a rocker edge, but she also likes to pamper and take care of herself. I think the actual products evolved to reflect this character.

Introducing MAC Hello Kitty!

MAC Hello Kitty Colour Collecton: All that’s girly and sparkly. This sophisticated colour story takes its cue from both the fantastical world of Hello Kitty and the glamour of the spring fashion shows. It will feature plush pinks, rich purples, turquoise for extra pop, three-dimensional lickable lips and lashes that were made to bat, all packaged in a sophisticated yet adorable graphic black design to give the line that baaaaaad kitty edge.

MAC paired six playful Lipstick shades with six sparkling Lipglass glosses, two Tinted Lip Conditioners that will have your kisser covered, and two bright and punchy eye quads that can be accented with reflective eye Glitter and Glitter Eye Liners, all of which are perfectly framed by the thickest, most decadent Plush Lash Mascara. Beauty Powder Blush in shades of pink and peach will give the MAC Hello Kitty woman a demure, rosy flush and nails are decorated in fabulous shades of pepto-pink, modern grey and creamy white Nail Lacquer.

Get Kate Winslet’s Look: Nails in Misty Pink

The perfect accessory for any red carpet look- flawless manicured nails. While wearing an electric blue Narciso Rodriguez gown, Kate Winslet looked stunning yet again as she won an award for Best Supporting Actress last night at the SAG Awards.

To compliment Kate’s vibrant look, fashion manicurist Deborah Lippmann polished her nails with a sheer, misty pink called Prelude To A Kiss.

How to Get The Look: White Metallic Nail

Have you noticed celebrities hitting the red carpet wearing all black with a white metallic nail? It’s the new way to accessorize the traditional black gown. From Kate Winslet at the Golden Globes and on Oprah to Faith Hill at the inauguration festivities, and Hayden Panettiere.

To achieve this black & white trend, Deborah Lippmann used a shade from her collection called Rhapsody In White on Kate’s nails. Deborah and can speak about the trend, how to wear it and what type of skin tones can carry off which shades of metallic white.
