MAC Cosmetics will join forces with the Star Trek universe to produce a new cosmetics line to commemorate the famed franchise’s 50th anniversary. The news was confirmed Wednesday morning via social media.
The 25-piece special deco collection is inspired by female Trek characters Seven of Nine, Deanna Troi, Uhura, and Vina, the Orion girl. It will feature lip, eye and face products.
“Star Trek is an iconic pop culture phenomenon whose storylines pushed gender and racial boundaries,” MAC creative director James Gager said in a statement. “For its 50th anniversary, we celebrate each of Star Trek’s powerful women in a transcending, transformational makeup collection.”
The Star Trek-themed line will be available online on Aug. 25 and in stores on Sept. 1. Fans attending San Diego Comic-Con will be able to enjoy an exclusive one-day collection presale on Thursday, July 21 at MAC Gaslamp.
MAC recently announced a partnership with Caitlyn Jenner that begins with the April 7 launch, of a limited-edition Lipstick created by Jenner. One hundred percent of the sales from her signature shade, “Finally Free”, will benefit the M•A•C AIDS Fund Transgender Initiative, aimed to support organizations and programs dedicated to improving transgender lives.
