The following is a press release from Inglot Cosmetics:

After decades serving as a muse for the makeup industry and a beauty inspiration for women all over the world, Jennifer Lopez is now stepping behind the scenes and debuting a limited-edition collection in partnership with global beauty brand Inglot Cosmetics. Launching April 26th, the extensive color line will bring Jennifer’s and Inglot’s shared vision of strong femininity to life and offer women diverse ways to express themselves through beauty. Finally, everyone can now achieve their own authentic “J Lo Glow.”

“The capsule collection we created with Inglot is filled with all my go-to products in my favorite colors. We have everything from mascara, lipsticks, eyelashes, blush, eye shadow and of course…bronzers,” said Lopez. “What I think is unique and exciting is our Freedom System Palette—which allows you to create your own personalized palette with the specific colors and products that you need. Now you no longer have to buy that 5-piece eyeshadow kit to get the one color you really want!”

Jennifer worked very closely with the brand on every aspect of the collection including the shade range, ad campaign, packaging and even the product names of the hero skus, which are inspired by her career, like “Boogie Down Bronze” and “Livin’ The Highlight.” As a global star juggling multiple jobs on top of motherhood, Jennifer built the line for women like her who are always on the go. The product collection allows women to create unique looks of their own, whether they’re going for a natural daytime look or going-out-glam, inspired by Jennifer’s iconic styles.

“We could not have asked for a better partner than Jennifer. She is a true beauty visionary,” says Grzegorz Inglot, Vice President of US Operations for Inglot. “In addition to having great style, Jennifer is also quite a beauty expert herself. After years of working with the best in the business, she has unique insight into what women want as well as which products are necessary to create that beautiful glow that she made famous.”

The 70-piece collection ranges from powders to lipsticks, shadows to eyelashes and cosmetic palettes. All colors in the line were created and handpicked by Jennifer herself. The star of the collection is the Freedom System that allows consumers to create unique palettes with over 300,000 combination possibilities. The expertly formulated products will range in shades from nude to glow, with a touch of smoky glam and the key products in the line will include an illuminator, a bronzer, a gloss and a mascara.

The line launches globally on April 26 on jenniferlopezinglot.com, inglotusa.com, in Inglot stores and in select Macy’s locations. But if you can’t wait, an exclusive palette inspired by Jennifer’s look in the advertising campaign will be available for pre-sale starting April 17 on jenniferlopezinglot.com.

Founded in Poland in 1983, Inglot Cosmetics is one of the world’s leading manufacturers and retailers in color cosmetics. Renowned for their expansive array of shades and revolutionary best-sellers such as the Freedom System of custom palettes and O2M Breathable Nail Enamel, Inglot creates the trends behind the scenes at Fashion Week in New York, Paris, Milan, London and on Broadway. Inglot is dedicated to offering beauty enthusiasts around the world with products that feature cutting edge technology and the finest ingredients.

The following is a press release from Elizabeth Arden:

Elizabeth Arden announces the launch of the March On campaign, featuring a limited-edition lipstick, in the brand’s signature Red Door Red shade and signed by Reese Witherspoon, which will be sold globally with 100% of the proceeds donated to UN Women.

An early advocate of women’s rights, Elizabeth Arden famously provided red lipsticks to the suffragettes marching on Fifth Avenue in 1912. Wearing red lipstick, which wasn’t a socially acceptable practice at the time, became a symbol of the women’s movement and has remained an icon of female power to this day.  As the women’s movement remains in force over 100 years later, Elizabeth Arden continues its fearless female founder’s legacy of advocating for women and honoring their ability to be forces of change in the world with the introduction of the March On campaign.

The program, in partnership with the brand’s Storyteller-in-Chief and female advocate Reese Witherspoon, is designed to celebrate women’s achievements, encourage women to support other women and includes a pledge to donate $1 million to UN Women in support of their work to advance women’s issues worldwide.  The limited edition March On red lipstick serves as a powerful symbol of unity and advocacy and invites women around the world to signal their support for one another.

“Founded by a woman dedicated to helping women, we are inspired by our history to help change the future. March On honors this legacy not only with a philanthropic donation, but also with a campaign that asks women to unite to help each other achieve their full potential,” explains Kara Langan, Senior Vice President, Global Marketing, Elizabeth Arden. “Whether by creating female-centric support systems or propelling each other in their professional lives, when women stand together they can enact great change in the world.”

“There is real strength and camaraderie in March On and the feeling that we are in this together. By bringing UN Women, Elizabeth Arden and women everywhere together we can help change women’s lives around the world for the better,” explains Reese Witherspoon. “I have the unique privilege to not only tell these women’s stories through my production company as well as my relationship with Elizabeth Arden, but I also get to encourage them to share their own stories through March On.”

“A prominent entrepreneur and supporter of women’s rights, Elizabeth Arden herself is an inspirational example of the impact women can make on the world. We are pleased to embark upon a multi-year, worldwide partnership with the iconic brand to help advocate for women and girls and make their equal participation a reality,” says Tunay Firat, OIC Head of Strategic Private Sector Partnerships, UN Women. “The funds raised by Elizabeth Arden through the March On program will help strengthen UN Women’s global programming, which will lead directly to the increased responsiveness and sustainability of field-level activities.”

The ongoing integrated marketing campaign will include social content, public relations, in-store activations and advertising featuring Reese Witherspoon, in addition to the limited edition lipstick.  The March On Beautiful Color Lipstick in Red Door Red will be available beginning March 2018 for $26.50 on ElizabethArden.com and in department stores globally.

“I’ve always been a huge Divine fan. He was so iconic and so ground-breaking, especially for the time that he was around because he was not only breaking barriers in the regular world just being openly gay, but in the drag world as well. He made people question the conventional idea of beauty and he made something that could be scary to most people very appealing. That’s so powerful.” – Kat Von D

The following is a press release from Kat von D Beauty:

Kat Von D’s iconic Studded Kiss Crème Lipstick is back to rock your lips with a covetable new formula, explosive new shade range, and reimagined new look!

Get The Look:
Kat Von D Beauty Artistry Collective Artist Tara Buenrostro (@juscallmetara) shares her passion for the new Studded Kiss Lipsticks:

  • “The newly reformulated Studded Kiss Creme Lipsticks are truly unlike any lipsticks out there. They are the longest-lasting lipsticks with the most insane color payoff. From the perfect nudes for any skin tone, classic reds, all the way to those weirdo-pops and Everlasting Liquid Lipstick shade faves – we have any color your heart desires!”

Tara dishes on creating the look seen on Kat Von D in the Studded Kiss Crème Lipstick campaign, which inspired the “Kiss Me All Over” tagline:

  • “I always love collaborating with Kat on ideas for campaigns, so when she approached me with the idea of lipsticks all over her face, my first thought was that I was going to have to kiss her… A LOT. In order to accomplish the campaign look, I created custom stencils and with the help of the three other Artistry Collective members we filled them in with different shades of Studded Kiss to truly showcase the amazing color range, intense pigmentation and color payoff to give Kat the perfect, Studded Kiss Me All Over look.”

Kat Von D Studded Kiss Crème Lipstick ($19 USD) will be available in the US on January 12 onKatvondbeauty.comJanuary 19 on Sephora.com, and January 26 in Sephora stores.
