There’s something about two greats coming together with an aim to enhance ourt looks that really gets our beauty juices flowing. This summer, the cosmetic collabs are ripe, and we’ve picked a few faves we think you really ought to try. —Noa Nichol
sally hansen x crayola. Wild strawberry, sunset orange, dandelion, vivid violet and razzmatazz—thanks to Sally Hansen and Crayola, now we can really colour our nails! It’s everything we loved about our school-day box of crayons, paired with the beauty brand’s famous Insta-Dri three-in-one formula that features a built-in base and topcoat to provide shiny, extended wear in just one step (read: a single, carefree stroke). sallyhansen.com
moschino x sephora. This limited-edition collab is truly one not to miss. The leader in global beauty retail has paired with the Italian luxury brand to create seven makeup essentials and travel-ready accessories featuring exclusive colours and iconic touches inspired by the mood and feeling of Moschino … in other words, TEDDY BEARS! Oh my! sephora.com
lise watier x elle. While Elle may pose a wee bit of competition for VITA in the print pub space, we love what the magazine has done in its recent partnership with Canadian beauty co Lise Watier. The four resulting products in the Weekender Collection include a shadow palette, a rouge and two mascaras. Magazine meets makeup? In our first-hand experience, it’s a match! lisewatier.com
shu uemura x super mario bros. This gaming-meets-glam collab won’t be available til Christmastime, but it’s worth a "heads-up" mention regardless. Just in time for the 2017 holiday season, the Japanese beauty brand is teaming up with everyone’s favourite ’80s vid game on a collection that includes colourful makeup and hair-care offerings proudly boasting old-school (i.e., pixelated, for real) characters like Mario, Luigi and Princess Peach. Doo doo doo doo doo doo! shuuemura.ca
beautiful bonus: robin mcgraw revelation. Whether you’re a die-hard Dr. Phil fan or not, you gotta give it to his wife, Robin—the woman is ageless. And, though this is not a "collab" per se, we felt it necessary to tell you that Mrs. McGraw’s gorgeous skin-care collection is now available in Canada. The products, adorably named (there’s a Twinkle Twinkle You’re a Star triple-action brightening polish and a Let There Be Bright serum), aim to remind us to feel empowered and live each day with a smile (hey, her hubby is all about the positive motivation, too). robinmcgrawrevelation.com
