MAC Launching Marilyn Monroe Collection
If you thought 2011 was The Year of Marilyn Monroe, just wait 'til you see what 2012—which marks the 50th anniversary of her death—has in store.
The legendary blonde bombshell, who was just named the Best Beach Body Of All Time, has inspired a new MAC color cosmetics collection which will launch in October, Women's Wear Daily reports.
The limited-edition range will pay homage to Monroe's iconic looks with roughly 30 items—including eye shadows, lipsticks, nail polishes, and eyeliners—priced from $15 to $27.
