ANTHONY VACCARELLO

Long before she was

pop royalty or the

soundtrack to your

festive season, and

before she was showing

you all of her many

beautiful sides on

Instagram (if you’re not

already following her,

then we don’t know

what you’re doing with

your life), Mariah Carey

went to makeup school.

“I have always been

a makeup girl. Over

the years, I think I’ve

learned that less is

really more when it

comes to makeup,”

she says.

Now, the OG pop

princess has joined

forces with M.A.C on

a glitzy-on-the-outside,

surprisingly-subdued-

and-flattering-on-the-

inside collection – so

we took the chance

to hit her up for her

guide to achieving

“Dreamlover”-level

fabulousness this

party season.

GET BLUSHING

My favourite M.A.C

product of all time is

Pink Swoon blush. So

we created something

similar in You’ve Got Me

Feeling and I absolutely

love it. It’s the perfect

pink for your cheeks.

MAKE LIKE YOU’RE ON

STAGE I go for lipstick

(I like Bit Of Bubbly), eye

shadow (in Golden Petals

Scattering), Skinfinish

(in My Mimi) and a pair

of false lashes.

BE KIND TO YOUR SKIN

I believe glow comes

from within – it

shines through.

CHANNEL THE ICONS

Marilyn Monroe and

Sophia Loren are

timeless beauties.

ADD SOME ICE

One of my favourite

things is diamonds!

LEARN FROM THE

’90S My “Honey” video

was almost 20 years

ago and I think my hair

and makeup style for it

is still wearable today.

JUST SMILE Being

happy is when I feel

the most beautiful.

My babies, music

and laughter are

what make me

feel the happiest. ]
