M•A•C Cosmetics Presents: Typography

M•A•C Cosmetics Presents: Typography
Makeup was the medium of choice for a team of 22 M•A•C Artists,
who showcased a type-inspired body painting exhibit

“Type design is one of the most visible and widespread forms
of graphic expression in daily life. It is still not noticed by all
readers of newspapers, magazines or books. Nevertheless letter forms
reflect the style of a period, and its cultural background.
We are surrounded by them everywhere.”
-Hermann Zapf
German Typographer
1918 – present

May 28, 2010 – Toronto: On Wednesday night in Toronto, makeup took centre stage at the Burroughs Building where 22 M•A•C Cosmetics artists from across North America came together to create a typography-inspired live art installation. The artists took type design, something that readers of magazines, newspapers and books don’t always notice, blew it up and hand drew it onto a typically unconventional medium of expression for typeface – the human body.

Body painting is a skill that takes years of practice to develop. For an installation like Typography, artists must paint with meticulous detail and choose the right products to use in order to ensure the models look perfect. “We're using various mediums along with the new M•A•C Acrylic Paint (launching in August), which is our primary product of choice due to its ease of use and incredibly long wear time.” – Tiffany Johnston, M•A•C Senior Artist and Typography Key Artist

Showcasing M•A•C artistry and creativity at its best, this traveling exhibit incorporates a live performance in certain cities. Toronto, being a major artistic hub, was the perfect backdrop for a multimedia installation that incorporated calligraphy and dance. Noriko Maeda used a laser light to “draw” across the backdrop of the stage, where two dancers (William Yong and Kristy Kennedy) performed for guests and played with the light.

GUESS WHO...MAC Venomous Villains

Via WWD yesterday:

MAC Cosmetics is teaming up with Disney to create a limited edition color collection, intended to launch globally in late September in all MAC locations. The products will feature four Disney characters, on which the brand is keeping mum at the moment — although with a collection name of Venomous Villains, it is assumed that we’re not talking Donald Duck and Minnie Mouse here. Lipstick, powder, lip gloss and blush shades will be sold, ranging in price from $12 to $29.50.

Can YOU guess who they are??

Trend Alert - White Liner

White liner is back! It was all over the catwalk and soon it will be all over the streets. White eyeliner is an extremely versatile tool when you know how to use it. When applied to the upper lid, the white attracts light and opens up the shape of your eyes, contrasting the effects of black liner that make your eyes appear smaller. You can also use white liner on the inside of your lower lid as well as the inner corner of the eye to instantly brighten. As with any makeup, be sure to choose the right shade, stark whites can be a bit much so try opting for off-white, creamy white or whites with a silver tint. If you decide to go for a stark white try to soften the liner with a sponge or a Q-tip.

To achieve this look, I suggest trying MAC Cosmetics Eye Kohl in Fascinating.

LADY GAGA MESMERIZES TOKYO WITH AN AWE-INSPIRING VIVA GLAM PERFORMANCE

On Tuesday, April 20th M•A•C Cosmetics and the M•A•C Aids Fund hosted the much anticipated Pan-Asia Viva Glam launch in Japan with a press junket at Tokyo’s Grand Hyatt Hotel for over 30 Asian and worldwide media followed by a breathtaking and electric performance by Viva Glam spokesperson Lady Gaga featuring a one-of-a-kind M•A•C Viva Glam inspired piano, specially designed and crafted by Canadian artist, Terence Koh.

An international and eclectic audience of over 900 guests including Naomi Matsushima, Ms. Riisa Naka and Ms. Kyoko Kano together with influencers from the worlds of fashion, music and art arrived at Tabloid, Tokyo’s newest art and fashion event space – all highly charged and visibly anticipating Viva Glam Spokesperson, Lady Gaga’s performance.

Making a grand entrance, by procession inspired by a Japanese wedding, through the ecstatic, highly charged crowd to chants of ‘Gaga, Gaga, Gaga…’ The lights dimmed and an all white Lady Gaga was led onto a rotating stage, taking her seat at the piano and performing a heart felt version of Speechless. A chilling rendition of Allejandro followed. Bathed in surreal, all white light the performance was a magical fantasy that climaxed as Lady Gaga finished her set with the crowd pleasing Bad Romance. As snowflakes and cherry blossoms magically cascaded onto her and the crowd both fans and followers were left mesmerized by her musical and artistic prowess.

Immediately following the performance, the dynamic duo of the Japanese music scene; rock stars DJ’s the Dexpistols took to the decks, spinning tunes until late into the evening.
From Tokyo the VIVA GLAM Terence Koh piano signed by Lady Gaga will travel to New York City where it will be auctioned at the Donatella Versace/Anna Wintour Art of Elysium event on April 30th. The funds will be donated to The Harlem Hospital’s Family Care Centre in New York, a program that provides comprehensive medical, psychological and social services to HIV infected children and their families. For details or to make a bid go to: www.theartofelysium.org

Lady Gaga and Cyndi Lauper’s “From Our Lips” campaign, the M•A•C AIDS Fund’s new initiative creating awareness about the unique and rarely discussed challenges that women face in their fight against HIV/AIDS, has been the MOST successful in the history of the M•A•C AIDS Fund. With their charisma and inspirational voice, Gaga and Cyndi have motivated people around the world to buy over $2.2 million worth of their two shades of Viva Glam Lipstick and press efforts in Tokyo are expected to bolster these record breaking figures even further.

Together with Grammy Award winning singer-songwriter and actress Cyndi Lauper, Lady Gaga shares the role of spokesperson for M•A•C Viva Glam. Every cent of each VIVA GLAM product sold globally is donated to the M•A•C AIDS Fund. The new VIVA GLAM collection features two lipsticks – Viva Glam Cyndi (Light Coral Red) and Viva Glam Gaga (Light Blue Pink) - $16.50 CDN each.

Amidst this activity, M•A•C AIDS Fund Japan donated a check of 10,000,000 YEN ($110,000 USD) to UNICEF JAPAN. This money is generated from the sales of Viva Glam lipsticks and lipglasses in Japan, where the entire selling price of each is donated to the M•A•C AIDS Fund. The 10,000,000 YEN will be directed to the M•A•C Global Partnership, a program dedicated the prevention of mother to child HIV transmission.

MAC Cosmetics - A/W '10 Recap

M·A·C COSMETICS’ BIGGEST SEASON EVER: FALL/WINTER 2010 FASHION WEEKS



This Fall/Winter 2010 season marked the 15th Anniversary of M·A·C Cosmetics involvement in New York Fashion Week and our impact in London , Paris and Milan was bigger than ever before! M·A·C Cosmetics supported nearly 200 shows during the Fall/Winter 2010 Collections. M·A·C continued as the official sponsor of London Fashion week, had a strong presence in Milan and Paris, and hosted shows, events and presentations at M·A·C & Milk and throughout New York.



Fall/Winter 2010 was an inventive and inspiring season for beauty. This season, Makeup Artists asked the question: “What is luxurious makeup?” The answer was not opulence, but, rather, a sense of individual enhancement based in reality. Lyne Desnoyers, Director of Makeup Artistry for M·A·C, called it “flirting with luxury on a contemporary face.”



A few memorable products that created the latest trends include:



M·A·C Opulash This new mascara with a supersized brush produced plush, extravagant lashes on the runway. Adding dramatic volume and curl, it formed lush lashes - bigger, badder, more opulent eyes. Opulash was key in such shows as DSquared2, Blumarine, Max Mara and Chado Ralph Rucci.


M·A·C Prolongwear SPF 10 Foundation: Creamy and lightweight, this yet-to-be-introduced foundation was a hit! Providing ample playtime and easy blending, it also demonstrated 15-hours of wearability and garnered raves backstage at Chado Ralph Rucci, PORTS 1961 and Timo Weiland.


M·A·C Eye Kohl in Smolder A backstage essential, Smolder Eye Kohl lined lids throughout all four cities. Its creamy texture and versatility allowed for smudged, smokey looks as well as dramatic, etched dark definition. It framed eyes at such shows as L.A.M.B., Zac Posen, Tadashi Shoji and Vivienne Westwood Gold Label.


M·A·C Lip Pencil in Cherry: Forget subtlety – this season, bold, bright lips were front and center. Lip Pencil in Cherry was the crucial ingredient, forming, priming and making colour come forward. Paired most often with Lady Danger and Russian Red Lipsticks, it was seen at DSquared2, Doo.Ri, Donna Karan and Moschino.

MAC Cosmetics - Prep for Colour Collection

Artists use watercolor, oil, chalk, pastel, pencil, ink. We use makeup. Both require a bold vision and a perfectly primed canvas to start. New innovations to ensure the Artist’s idyll is perfectly realized: Prep + Prime Skin Brightening Serum evens out any skin tone and Prep +Prime Face Protect SPF 50helps stop future damage with ultimate determination. The state-of-the-art way to prepare skin for a flawless makeup application. Prep for Colour helps every skin type become a modern masterpiece.

MAC Opulash Mascara for Summer 2010

THE BIGGEST, BADDEST, BOUFFANT LASHES EVER ARE MAKING NOISE WITH THEIR SEXY SWEEP… the most extreme volumization ever seen! Just like going to your hairdresser for the boldest Barbarella blowout you would ever dare to wear, Opulash creates aesthetic extremes when it gets going, for a dramatic end look. It is all in the brush: enlarged and engineered to grab roots, lift, hold, replicate, exaggerate, and build-out like an architect intent on astounding with structural sleight-of-hand. Pick up the brush – see it volumize and curl – and you will know the difference. Large diameter backs you up; tapered front tip makes inner corners sleeker to reach. Needless to say, no clumping or Spider-Woman Syndrome. Superlative separation, sublime innovation: Everything a M•A•C Artist lives for!


Opulash in Bad, Bad Black Black

This will be available May 27, 2010.
