MAC has teamed up with makeup artist Mickey Contractor to launch a limited edition line of cosmetics. Contractor, who has over 30 years’ experience as a makeup artist for many of Bollywood’s biggest stars, used his experience to create an exclusive collection of foundations and concealers for Indian and other olive-colored skin tones.
Contractor explained that he wanted to create a cosmetics collection to help women with skin pigmentation and discoloration problems:
“Outside of India, they’ll also work beautifully on Hispanic, Mediterranean and Middle Eastern skins, which can also have similar issues with pigmentation.”
The full range of products will include everything from lipsticks and blushes to eyeshadow pots and palettes. In addition to neutral shades, the collection will also incorporate lots of teal, green, fuchsia and plum-colored hues.
According to Stylelist, the MAC and Mickey Contractor Collection will launch on January 6th in stores and online. Prices in the collection range from $14.50 to $36.

Must get as soon as it’s available!
Don’t forget asians…most of us have olive skin! What a great line…go MAC!
this sounds like a great idea! i just wish they would do something like this for pale skin, too. even mac’s lightest foundation is WAY too dark and too yellow for my skin tone.
I also agree with Clair. I have yet to find any makeup that is as pale white as me, and I can never seem to tan.
I’ll have to check this out! I’ve been using Vincent Longo and Sephora no longer carries it, so you have to order it direct online.
Got a MAC store at the mall so I’m very excited! Thanks for reporting this!
have not heard about this mac line before but I will sure give it a try as a lot of the other ones I tried do not match my olive skin
I heard on Temptalia that the foundations and concealers are permanent, but the color shades are L/E
