MAC Cosmetics X Taraji P. Henson Is Everything

by Augusta Statz

Whether she’s playing Cookie in Empire or strutting her stuff down the red carpet, this actress always kills it. So, it’s no wonder she’s teamed up with a company to help bring her sensational beauty style to the masses. What’s in the MAC Cosmetics X Taraji P. Henson collection? It’s got everything you’ll need to get your glam on.

The collab launches online on Sept. 6 and in MAC stores on Sept. 8, according to a press release. Once it’s available, you’ll be able to shop everything from eyeliner to highlighter to add a layer of fabulous makeup to your entire face. This collection is made to give you Henson-level confidence, all while showcasing your natural beauty.

The colors within the collection are minimal. They won’t overpower your natural features. A nude lipstick will allow you the chance to slick something on your pout without being too over-the-top. Meanwhile, the eyeliner and mascara that are within the range will allow you to play up those eyes. Use the brush and the highlighter to sweep some sparkle along your cheekbones, under your brow and on your cupid’s bow so you can glisten in the light all day (and night) long. Now, doesn’t that sound like you’ll reach Henson-status in no time? Yes, girl!

Subtle glam never looked so good!
