NYX's Cirque du Soleil Makeup Collection Captures the Magic of the Circus
NYX Professional Cosmetics is tapping into the whimsical wonderland of Cirque du Soleil for its latest Halloween collection. The brand revealed the "It Was All a Dream" collaboration on Sept. 29 with a range of 12 products that are sure to get your creative juices flowing.
The line includes new, limited-edition special-effects face and body paints, jumbo eyelashes, and a face stamp, as well as two new shades of the cult-favorite Lip Lingerie XXL lipstick in an intense black and a moody purple. The prices of the items range from $8 to $14, making them incredibly affordable.
The brand collaborated with renowned special-effects makeup artist Mimi Choi to showcase the boundless creative possibilities that can come from the products in the new line. Though these are pro-level pigments, you don't need to be a special-effects makeup artist to play. With the paints coming in easy, wearable colors like pink, red, green, and gold, you're sure to find a new product that will make your Halloween costume stand out.
The entire NYX x Cirque du Soleil range is now available to shop on nyxcosmetics.com as well as Ulta.com. See the entire lineup ahead.
