M.A.C and Nicki Minaj go way back – beginning in 2010 with the Pink 4 Friday lipstick to celebrate the launch of her Pink Friday album, and followed by her two campaigns as Viva Glam ambassador: in 2012 with Ricky Martin, and a solo run in 2013. All the colours she’s launched so far have been unabashedly pink – nicely in line with her Harajuku Barbie persona, we suppose – but in 2017, all that’s set to change.
Yes, it’s all about the nudes this time around, and we’re super stoked, obviously. This latest collaboration sees two limited edition M.A.C x Nicki Minaj nude lipsticks: Nicki’s Nude, a soft coral pink, and The Pinkprint, a mid-tone creamy pink, both in Amplified finishes.
Guess who’s back w/M·A·C? Surprise announcement coming for 2018! Until then, #NickiNudes come out globally in September. #MACxNickiMinaj pic.twitter.com/g7BGAg5TMx

And all this is just the beginning, according to this tweet from Minaj herself. There’ll be plenty more of M.A.C x Minaj for 2018, and we are so ready for all of that. In the meantime, M.A.C is very kindly launching these two Nicki Minaj lip colours with a whole range of nude lipsticks, lipglosses and lip pencils, covering both brand new and familiar shades.
Ever-reliable beauty insider @trendmood1 gives us a comprehensive sneak peek here, and we already see plenty that we’re tempted by. We always say that a girl can never have enough nude lipsticks, the extent of this M.A.C drop makes us feel like with this collection, we might finally have enough to last us a lifetime.
M.A.C x Nicki Minaj lip colours, $33 each. Available at M.A.C stores and counters from 7 September 2017. maccosmetics.com.sg
