Make Up Forever’s New Lipstick for Madonna

Gina Brooke, Madonna’s longtime make up artist, has collaborated with Make Up For Ever to create the official lip color for the Material Girl’s highly anticipated MDNA tour—new Aqua Rouge #8, billed as aniconic shade of red.

Brooke, a beauty expert in her own right whose work has appeared in every major fashion magazine, approached Make Up For Ever after falling in love with its Aqua Rouge collection for fall 2012.

“I loved working with Make Up For Ever to create a custom shade of Aqua Rouge specifically for Madonna. My biggest challenge was to find a lip product that was reliable and long-lasting, and knew choosing something from Make Up For Ever Aqua range was going to be ideal especially with a minute and a half for touch ups between songs. There’s no room for mistakes,” said Brooke. “I wanted to come up with a perfect, pure red lip color that would exude confidence and beauty.To me, the shade looks iconic, which is the perfect word to define Madonna and her career.”

As part of Make Up For Ever new Aqua Rouge lip color collection launching in September 2012, the high-impact liquid lip color delivers the intensity and long-lasting coverage of a lip stain, with the eye-catching shine of a gloss.It is highly pigmented, and most important, smudge-proof, sweat-proof and dance-proof.


Aqua Rouge #8 retails for $24 and is available at www.sephora.com, Sephora stores and Make Up For Ever Boutiques.
