MAC Cosmetics is officially giving the Y2K frosted lip a major comeback, and it tapped the perfect person to lead it.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text-md mb-6 leading-relaxed text-gray-500\">Celebrity makeup artist Erin Parsons has been a diehard MAC Frost Lipstick ($24) fan for years, championing the iconic finish long before nostalgia made it cool again. Now, in a very full-circle moment, she\u2019s the face of the brand\u2019s new campaign, which celebrates the return of frosted lips for a new generation (though we have very fond memories of Paris Hilton and Kim Kardashian wearing it well).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"article-segment\">\n<figure class=\"my-8 mx-auto max-w-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.sanity.io\/images\/0vv8moc6\/newbeauty\/fc33dd88b841783ccb4bec917ec1e2221f1770e6-750x1000.jpg?w=1200&amp;auto=format&amp;q=70\" alt=\"mac-frost-lipstick-erin-parsons\" width=\"750\" height=\"1000\" class=\"h-auto w-full rounded\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><\/figure>\n<h2 id=\"macs-frost-lipstick-is-the-beauty-revival-we-didnt-know-we-needed\" class=\"font-canela mb-4 mt-8 text-2xl font-light leading-tight text-black md:text-3xl\">MAC\u2019s Frost Lipstick Is the Beauty Revival We Didn\u2019t Know We Needed<\/h2>\n<p class=\"text-md mb-6 leading-relaxed text-gray-500\">The formula is the same cult-classic fans remember, which was intentional. It glides on weightlessly with a semilustrous, high-pearl finish that gives lips that signature frosted dimension, minus the gritty feel of glitter. The coverage is medium and buildable, so you can keep it to a sheer wash of shimmer or layer it up for full Y2K impact. Surprisingly for a shimmer finish, the formula is actually moisturizing. According to MAC\u2019s testing, 100 percent of panelists saw an immediate improvement in lip moisture.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text-md mb-6 leading-relaxed text-gray-500\">As for shades, three of the OGs are back (thankfully), and there are 10 new hues. Longtime fans will be thrilled to see Chintz, a warm brown with gold pearl; Jet, a frosted black; and Spanish Fly, a medium brown with a blue flip. New shades include everything from Teddy Metal, a light, dusty neutral nude, to Sugar Baby, a blue-mauve pink.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text-md mb-6 leading-relaxed text-gray-500\">\u201cMAC is one of the most-collected brands in my archive because it means so much to me,\u201d says Parsons. \u201cI worked with the brand for many years, and it has a special place in my heart\u2014not only because it has the coolest makeup, but because MAC changed my life as an artist.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"text-md mb-6 leading-relaxed text-gray-500\">\u201cI started working for MAC in 2000, and that\u2019s where I got into makeup and became a makeup artist,\u201d Parsons continues. \u201cI really treasure that time. Fast-forward to today: I\u2019m at the MAC offices, and they tell me, \u2018We\u2019re bringing back some Frost shades.\u2019 I\u2019m like, \u2018What? Oh my God\u2014let me see!\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"text-md mb-6 leading-relaxed text-gray-500\">\u201cThey started showing me the shades, and I said, \u2018You\u2019re bringing back Spanish Fly, right?\u2019 It was the most-liked comment on TikTok. I told them, \u2018You have to bring back Spanish Fly\u2014all the fans are going to want it.\u2019 I think I\u2019m the reason that shade came back, so you\u2019re welcome.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure class=\"my-8 mx-auto max-w-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.sanity.io\/images\/0vv8moc6\/newbeauty\/2ba3dda2cc5ff8dd22237ed8a02cc757508acd90-750x750.jpg?w=1200&amp;auto=format&amp;q=70\" alt=\"mac-frost-lipstick-swatches\" width=\"750\" height=\"750\" class=\"h-auto w-full rounded\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If your early-2000s makeup bag had a tube of shimmery l [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":3322,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[55],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nichebeaty.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3321"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/nichebeaty.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/nichebeaty.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nichebeaty.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nichebeaty.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3321"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/nichebeaty.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3321\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nichebeaty.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3322"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/nichebeaty.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3321"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nichebeaty.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3321"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nichebeaty.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3321"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
