Sali Hughes: forget smooth and glassy  glam beauty is back
"The appointment of Roan all grunge glitters, colourful face jewels and clumpy mascara celebrates the experimental, edgy and playful Mac aesthetic, and signals what may be the end of what industry figures often describe as the beige buffet of post-Covid fashion and beauty. Oh, the relief in seeing the back of all-over camel, in enjoying makeup textures other than perfectly smooth and glassy, the joy in a glinty eyelid or gemstone applied haphazardly and for no other reason but fun."
"Mac has the appropriate toolkit at the ready: its Connect in Color palettes (46) contain 12 eyeshadows in textures from smooth mattes to chunky glitters in interesting, but complementary, shades (even the Unfiltered Nudes option feels edgy). The formulas are easy enough to smoosh on carelessly with fingers and provide a stable foundation for plenty of smudgy kohl Roan wears Mac's sooty Feline Eye Kohl (20)."
Mac named glam pop queen Chappell Roan as its global ambassador, signalling a shift toward experimental, edgy and playful beauty. The appointment embraces grunge glitters, colourful face jewels and clumpy mascara and challenges the beige buffet of post‑Covid fashion and beauty. Mac's Connect in Color palettes offer 12 eyeshadows in textures from smooth mattes to chunky glitters, with formulas that can be smoothed on with fingers and layered for smudgy kohl. Cool-girl brand Violette FR presents holographic Lune Liners that mask uneven strokes. Wearing slightly silly colour, such as Cuivre 29, produces a noticeable mood lift.
