Haute Dogs

Sometimes beauty takes itself way too seriously. Which is why I love the witty themes MAC dreams up each season. There is always one laugh-out-loud collection. And for autumn 2015, it is “Haute Dogs”. Here is the press description of the limited edition colour collection of eyeshadows, lipglass and lipsticks: (Wo)man’s best friend is barking up the right tree in a well-groomed collection of new canine-inspired hues from MAC, featuring luscious, buttery fur tones, gold-spun sculpting powders, and regal berries for lips. From aristocratic to collars-off cool, shades of every pooch are perched to prime your every mood. With Haute Dogs, you’ll be lapping up accolades as best in show! The Onion couldn’t have written a more witty description.

    What a fun poke at the industry! Good for the editors/designers to add some light heartedness to their days. Love it! And the colors are fabulous too.
