It wasn’t a matter of it, it was matter a who…who was going to get lucky and launch their own 50 Shades-inspired makeup line. Make Up For Ever scored big. You can’t get your hands on the collection until Dec. 26th at Sephora, but we got first dibs and played with the makeup and created 8 different lip looks to give you a taste of what’s to come. The playfully named "Give In To Me" collection is inspired by the makeup worn in the movie, and the shades are part sweet part sultry.
Do you feel like playing up your innocence or sex appeal? The makeup in the "Give In To Me" set (shown right) can go either way, just like Anastasia.
The seductive quotes surrounding the box are an added surprise. The inside reminds us of all of the crazy, intense secrets from the book. The beautifully designed key inside the box opens up to a hidden compartment…kind of like the secret Red Room.
The line offers two lip sets. Tease Me Innocent is all about the nudes. It has a lip liner, longwear lip cream and high-shimmer gloss. Tease Me Passionate is just what you need to create a lustful red lip.
Pictures #1-4 are done with "Teach Me Innocent"
1. Using the nude lip liner only, I outlined the outer edges and lightly colored in the rest of the lip.
2. I used the matte lip color all over my lips and absolutely loved the texture!
3. All I did here was add the clear, longwear topcoat, which is on the other end of the lipstick.
4. I applied the nude sparkly gloss, and it really plumped up my lips and took this look to another level.
Pictures #5-8 are done with "Teach Me Innocent"
1. Like the nude liner, this dark red liner was lightly applied to the outer edges as well as the rest of the lip to make it more of a subdued red.
2. This matte dark red was my favorite out of the bunch because it looked extremely seductive and bold.
3. I added the longwear, clear topcoat over the dark red tone, and it brightened up the color.
4. This pinkish/red sparkly gloss is a little more fun than the nude one!
