Just in time for the Fall/Winter 2012 fashion trend season, M·A·C is proud to release their exclusive M·A·C Autumn and Winter ’12 Trend Book — a trendy, fashion-forward book showcasing fashion and cosmetic trends and looks that have been seen on the A/W ’12 runways, ready for the masses to emulate. Readers will be able to peak at a glimpse into the hot makeup looks each designer created, all using M·A·C products. As in seasons past, M·A·C has identified four trends which you’ll find at the beginning of the book. These are:

Sense + Sensibility: A rural approach to fresh country innocence, an aristocratic take on tailored beauty; the look is healthy, polished, effortless and groomed with the perfect canvas for a red lip

Roam-Antique: Elegant, eccentric beauty seen through the eyes of a gypsy, a trend playing with the proportion and depth of an eye, using soulful tints to mesmerizing jewel-like metallics; a modern-day twist on a smokey eye

Hone-Structure: A contemporary nude sculptured face focusing on bold brows and the use of shadows to give depth to features; the look is strong yet feminine

Arti-Tech: An artistic take on liner, high tech and modern referencing Oriental precision and equestrian elegance – refined
