Spring 2013: MAKE UP FOR EVER Technicolor Palette.

With spring comes brighter, bolder shades of color. I am so ready for it. MAKE UP FOR EVER is taking on this trend in their own way with their latest, the Technicolor Palette.

 

MUFE creator Dany Sanz looked at the 1930's cinematic transition from black and white to color imagery for this highly pigmented palette. She even used the same technique employed by filmmakers as she over-saturated her shadow colors to make them appear more alive. And they sure do.

The palette contains three, bright statement colors along with five, easy to wear classic shades, making this palette totally wearable. The palette includes Apple Green, Turquoise, Lilac, Black, White, Espresso, Beige and what Dany is calling the spring "it shade", Yellow.

The MAKE UP FOR EVER Technicolor Palette retails for $45 and is available at Sephora.

They are all part of the Instant Age Rewind Collection and include Eraser Dark Spot Concealer + Treatment, The Lifter Foundation, and The Perfector Powder.
