Selena Quintanilla may be gone, but she is certainly not forgotten.
The late singer has become M.A.C. cosmetic’s latest muse for a new makeup line. M.A.C made this exciting announcement Thursday using the hashtag “#MACSelena,” reports Harper’s Bazaar.
“Like the legend herself, Selena Quintanilla’s fans are an inspiration to us all for their love and enthusiasm,” the makeup brand said in an official statement. “It’s happening! We are excited to announce the M.A.C Selena Quintanilla collection.”
James Gager, M.A.C.’s Senior Vice President, explained that the upcoming collaboration comes from the “passion and enthusiasm from her fans.”
“Selena’s talent and beauty, inside and out have left a colorful, meaningful impact in the world, that has continued to grow over the decades,” he praised. He also acknowledged that the iconic singer’s “legacy embodies M.A.C.’s philosophy.”
The brand will be getting some help from someone close to Selena, her older sister, Suzette. She revealed that Selena dreamed of having a makeup line and said the new line is “history is being made.”
“Helping to create this collection brings me back to all those late night conversations on our tour bus when she spoke of having her own makeup line one day,” Suzette recalled. “If Selena were here she would be beyond ecstatic to have this happening.”
While details regarding the line’s products have not been disclosed, we’re hoping there will be a red lipstick that emulates the singer’s signature lip color.
The Selena inspired M.A.C. collection is set to debut in 2016.
