Color is making a comeback but in a completely different way!
MAC Cosmetics, an expert at creating and spotting makeup trends, reveals that one of the most popular makeup trends surfacing this 2022 is a colorful monochromatic look.
“Colorful monochromatic” may sound counterintuitive at first—but to prove that these two can actually co-exist, #MACTRENDS created some vibrant and striking monochromatic looks inspired by some of their iconic Powder Kiss shades so you can explore and discover The Art of Color.
MAC Powder Kiss Liquid Lipcolour is a multi-use product that can be used on the eyes, lips, and cheeks, making it essential for monochromatic beauty looks.
Below, check out some of the stunning colorful monochromatic looks you can pull off—including the exact products used to create them:
1. Pretty In Pink inspired by MAC Powder Kiss in A Little Tamed
Products used: Powder Kiss Lipstick in A Little Tamed, Powder Kiss Liquid in A Little Tamed, Lustreglass in Pigment of Your Imagination, Powder Kiss Eyeshadow in Fall In Love, Dazzleshadow Liquid in Love Yourself, Glow Play Blush in Grand, Extra Dimension in Show Gold
Brighten your face and create a natural and youthful-looking flush with an all-pink MOTD. You'll be surprised how easy it is to pull off an all-pink look once you've tried it.
2. Purple Surprise inspired by MAC Powder Kiss in Burning Love
Products used: Powder Kiss Lipstick in Burning Love, Powder Kiss Liquid in More the Mehrier, Lustreglass in Beam There Done That, Powder Kiss Eyeshadow in Ripened, Dazzleshadow Liquid in Diamond Crumbles, Glow Play Blush in Totally Synched, Extra Dimension in Soft Frost
Try an all-purple MOTD for instant understated glam. There are plenty of purple shades, so choose one that compliments your skin tone best. Not sure where to start? Consider MAC Powder Kiss in Burning Love—a universally flattering berry-purple shade.
3. Orange Glam inspired by MAC Powder Kiss in Sorry Not Sorry
Products used: Powder Kiss Lipstick in Mandarin O, Powder Kiss Liquid in Sorry Not Sorry, Lustreglass in TNTeaser, Powder Kiss Eyeshadow in My Tweedy, Dazzleshadow Liquid in Not Afraid To Sparkle, Glow Play Blush in Groovy, Extra Dimension in Iced Apricot
If you want to stand out from the crowd, try a daring color like this pumpkin orange shade. It's a fun hue that allows you to get creative and show your artistic side. Plus, you'll love the warmth it'll give your complexion!
4. Fierce Red inspired by MAC Powder Kiss in Devoted to Chili
Products used: Powder Kiss Lipstick in Devoted to Chili, Powder Kiss Liquid in Devoted to Chili, Lustreglass in Lady Bug, Powder Kiss Eyeshadow in Devoted to Chili, Dazzleshadow Liquid in Everyday is Sunshine, Glow Play Blush in Heat Index, Extra Dimension in Double Gleam
Radiate a fierce and super cool aura when you try this all-red makeup look. But because this bold color can be tricky to balance, try a brick-red shade like MAC Powder Kiss in Devoted to Chili—it flatters all skin tones.
This year is about color exploration and using color in fun and innovative ways. We've already given you some samples from #MACTRENDS' The Art of Color for inspo, so try them out and get your creative juices flowing! You can even try these looks using MAC's other Powder Kiss shades.
