The line includes a beige matte lipstick called Strip Me Down, a Mineralize Skinfinish Natural face powder in Taraji Glow, a Mineralize Skinfinish shimmer powder in Highlight the Truth, a Haute & Naughty Too Black Lash in Black, a Penultimate Eyeliner in Rapidblack, and a Duo Fibre face brush in 187.
 The items are priced between $17 and $42 and will first be available online, then at select M.A.C. retail locations September 8.
