GET THE M·A·CXIMAL LOOK
April 24, 2024 by Carly Utting
After seasons of minimal Clean Girl looks, M·A·Cximal makeup is here to shake things up – starting with bold, in-your-face lips. We turned to four social media sensations – including Danielle Marcan and Myla Blankson – to put the new M·A·Cximal Silky Matte Lipstick to the test. Dominic Skinner, M·A·C Director of Makeup Artistry, and Carly Utting, M·A·C Senior Artist, share the tips and products you need for more-is-more M·A·Cximal makeup looks that scream, “I wear M·A·C!”
