“Whitney was always a champion of women feeling beautiful whether it was a major event or just for everyday wear, our work with M.A.C. is about creating a line that can meet all of those needs. The line will be true to her colors that she loved to work with,” Pat shared, adding that Whitney “loved working with colors on the lips and eyes, that iconic red lip was always a favorite of hers.”
The global cosmetics brand will continue to honor the music icon through upcoming projects, which will be announced in the future.
