Houston died on 11 February 2012 after drowning in a bathtub in a Beverly Hills Hilton hotel room. “The line will be true to her colours that she loved to work with.” “Whitney was always a champion of women feeling beautiful whether it was a major event or just for everyday wear, our work with Mac is about creating a line that can meet all of those needs. We are just starting on this collaboration but exciting things are coming! “I’m pleased we can do something that I know she would have loved. “The idea that is coming to fruition now is something Whitney always wanted to do,” Houston’s sister-in-law and former manager, Pat Houston, told People magazine. Houston’s most memorable makeup looks are from her chart reign during the 80s and 90s: natural curly hair, multi-coloured eye shadows and bright red lipstick.
The renowned makeup brand will then continue to celebrate Houston through upcoming projects, which will be announced at a later date. The collection is set to launch in 2022 to support the upcoming biopic, I Wanna Dance With Somebody, which Mac Cosmetics will be providing beauty looks for. Mac Cosmetics is partnering up with the Whitney Houston Estate to launch a makeup range that celebrates the life and legacy of the iconic singer.
