So I was just scrolling through Instagram, checking out the world and I saw something that stopped me in my scrolling tracks. This:
It was posted on the account of Dominic Skinner aka MAC Cosmetics' Senior Global Artist. All those nude shades. And a palette. I was intrigued.
Not long after that picture was posted, another came forth. Once again nudes and an empty lipstick palette. But this time the nudes were arranged in a pattern. And what a pretty pattern it was.
At this point my heart began to race a little. Was I seeing the beginning of something that I would give a good chunk of my pay cheque to own? Was this a new MAC palette in the making?
Later on his Instagram feed showed melting And pouring. It was glorious to watch! And the more I saw the more I wanted. And this was the finished result...
Nude. Lovers. Heaven. I was in. All in. But then I got down and dirty into the comments section hoping to see some confirmation that the palette was the beginning of something buyable. Alas, no. Dominic just loved his Nicki Minaj lipsticks so much he wanted an easier way to rock around with them, so he made his own palette using her lippies along with a mix of his favourite other nudes.
It even has it's own cover:
While this doesn't look to be something we mere mortals can get our hands on easily Dominic did take the time to post a video showing us how we can melt our lipsticks and create a palette like his. You can check it out here.
If I had more patience I would do this. Except I don't. Looks like I'll be sticking to the tube formula's for the time being while praying MAC sees the genius of this palette and recreates it so we can snap it up without any of the effort.
I am a lipstick girl through and through but I would give this a go with a few lip brushes - why not I say it certainly can do no harm
