Long gone are the days when Barbie just chilled in your playhouse. For Barbie's 61st birthday, she scored a major beauty deal you're going to want in on to celebrate: The global icon teamed up with heritage brand MAC Cosmetics to up our lipstick game. MAC has a initiative called "international beauty movers and makers" that names new lipsticks after icons—and it's Barbie's turn! Introducing @BarbieStyle, a universal cool-toned, bubblegum-pink shade with a matte finish. The custom shade is giving all the nostalgic feels, and is the perfect fit for every skin tone.
Barbie took to Instagram to showcase a swatch of the shade:
The cool thing about @BarbieStyle is it's intended to give you options; it can be worn however and whenever you want. "The @BarbieStyle MAC Maker lipstick is a truly universal pink that works on every skin tone," MAC director of makeup artistry, Gregory Arlt, noted in a press release. "Play it up with a lip pencil or gloss, or rock it on its own! You can use @BarbieStyle for your everyday look or try something more playful and edgy."
The matte lipstick comes in a luxe limited-edition MAC Maker gold lipstick bullet and is packaged in a hot pink box with gold accents.
The limited-edition lipstick is now available exclusively at MAC's website.

@BarbieStyle is the only MAC x Barbie product to be released right now...but it would be amazing to see a roll-out of even more Barbie-themed products in the future. After all, Barbie is the OG influencer.
