Pound The Alarm: Nicki Minaj Teamed Up With M.A.C Again

M.A.C Cosmetics just announced some major news: It’s once again teaming up with our former cover star Nicki Minaj.

The rapper is launching two new limited-edition lipstick shades, both variations of nude. "Nicki’s Nude" is described as a soft coral-pink nude, while "The Pinkprint" is a mid-tone creamy pink. Both come in M.A.C’s Amplified finish, meaning the color payoff is like no other.

This isn’t the first time Minaj has worked with the cult-favorite beauty giants. Back in 2012, she launched a hot Barbie pink lipstick, alongside a clear lip balm by Ricky Martin, for the brand’s Viva Glam campaign, which benefits the M.A.C AIDS Fund. The following year, she joined the Viva Glam campaign once again to release a bright lilac lipstick and gloss.

While her latest shades may seem like a stark contrast from what she’s created in the past, we're definitely here for it. Who doesn't love a good nude?

M.A.C. x Nicki Minaj will hit MacCosmetics.com and M.A.C stores on September 21 and will be available through October 19.
