While fans await Sony’s biopic I Wanna Dance With Somebody set to premiere on December 23, MAC Cosmetics has launched a limited-edition collection in honor of the late music icon, Whitney Houston. The assortment celebrates the singer’s timeless beauty looks with 12 pieces that epitomize the sophisticated glam and ultimate femininity exuded by the singer. Tap ahead for more details about this collection, available at MAC and Macy’s, both online and in-store, starting December 8.

The lipstick selection has a total of four shades ranging within Whitney’s signature neutrals and petal pinks, as well as a red. “An iconic red lip was always a favorite of hers,” says Pat Houston, the Executor of the Estate of Whitney E. Houston.

To achieve Whitney’s beloved high-gloss lip looks, MAC presents two new starlit shades of their best seller Lipglass in a bronze shimmer and a sparkly gold.

Get Whitney’s memorable eyeshadow looks with this 8-pan palette that ranges from soft neutrals to molten metallics for a smoldering eye look.

These classic lashes are a staple to complete the icon’s eye look for any occasion.

Recreate Whitney’s glowy bronze finish with this Extra Dimension Skinfinish — “an essential to Whitney’s most memorable looks,” says Fatima Thomas, M.A.C Senior Artist.

There are two blush options to add a touch of warmth to your complexion that’ll gorgeously amplify your bone structure like the great icon.
