The Lion King x Luminess Cosmetics
Leave it to Beyoncé’s makeup artist, Sir John, to dream up a collection of shimmery, bronzy shades and bold selections in honor of the much-anticipated release of Disney’s The Lion King. It's hard to resist the ravenous red lipstick or the 12-shade "Can't Wait to Be Queen" eyeshadow palette in the Luminess Beauty collection, all inspired by the African landscape and named after some of our favorite characters, including Mufasa, Nala, and Simba.
Game of Thrones x Urban Decay
The HBO phenomenon may have come to an end, but the saga lives on through an Urban Decay makeup collection. If you’re hoping to select your favorite house in an eyeshadow palette or discover the perfect dragon highlighter, Urban Decay has an Iron Throne-themed selection worthy of wonder and awe.
Peter Pan Mermaid Lagoon x Bésame Cosmetics
Mermaids have inundated the beauty world in recent years, and Bésame Cosmetics has responded in kind. To honor the 65th anniversary of Peter Pan, Bésame collaborated with Disney to release a mermaid-centric collection inspired by the mystical lagoon on the island of Neverland. In this dreamy, youthful collaboration, you’ll find an eyeshadow palette, lipsticks, bronzer and highlighter (in adorable clamshell compacts), and a refreshing perfume.
Aladdin x MAC
We're seeing a whole new world of beauty possibilities with MAC's Aladdin collection. If you’re hoping to walk away looking like Princess Jasmine with a shimmery glow and the perfect pout, you’ve found your next makeup bag must-haves. Options range from lipstick to blush to eyeshadow, and all are sparkling, shimmering, splendid.
