When On Makeup Magazine learned that makeup artist, educator, and author, DeShawn Hatcher collaborated with one of our favorite pro brands, Graftobian, to create a brand new palette focused on deeper skin tones, we knew our readers had to know more! We were excited to try out the new palette and to get the e scoop on the formulation of this new collection as DeShawn and Graftobian partner to continue to move forward the Inclusion Revolution with The HD Cream Inclusion Collection Palette. This palette, $84.00 is available now online at www.graftobian.com
Why was it important for you to create this multi-cultural palette? Being a black woman, I didn’t feel that we were represented well by many makeup companies I feel that people of color have just been on the back end of the consumer makeup world, and it is beyond frustrating. But when it comes to pro-focused makeup companies this is where I bow down and say thank you. Pro brands have recognized and risen to the occasion for people of color, but I just couldn’t Continue reading →

Crystal Hearts Cosmetics a cruelty-free brand founded in the USA, with love and giving at their core. Headed by a team with over 30 years of experience in the beauty industry, they believe in giving back to the community and partner with various non-profit organizations throughout the greater Los Angeles area where they are based. The pigment rich brand offers up a variety of products, among them, an array of Liquid Matte Lipsticks, the Déjà Vu Eye and Cheek Palette, and the Glacial Water Cleansing Sherbet, also available in deluxe.
The Liquid Matte Lipsticks are available in 16 shades, five of which are launching soon, and all portray female names like Dahlia, a classic bright red, or Chloe, a gorgeous berry or Elizabeth, a nude pink. These super saturated liquid lipsticks glides on smoothly and dries to a matte finish, while offering up the same consistency as a traditional lipstick. We had a chance to try out some of the new colors like Chrissa, a bright lovely pink and as promised it offered up a rich color payoff that stayed put and lasted, without having to reapply. You are sure to find one of these colors to meet your clients needs.
We also had a chance to try out the Glacial Water Cleansing Sherbet, and loved its jelly, balm-like consistency. It cleanses ever so gently, but is fantastic at breaking down makeup like the budge-proof liquid lipstick. Lastly the Eye and Cheek Palette, contains everything you need to create your client’s complete look. The palette contains ten eyeshadows, 5 matte and 5 shimmer, along with three shades that can be use for contour/highlight and one blush, all housed in a light weight mirrored palette.
Crystal Hearts also offer an affiliate program, where affiliates receive a 20% percent discount off the retail price when making a purchase on their site. Crystal Hearts Cosmetics, $14.00 – $28.00 are available online at www.crystalheartscosmetics.com

Celebrating the professional makeup artist industry is nothing new for pro-favorite cosmetics brand Skindinavia. The brand has been involved with supporting this community since founder Allen Goldman brought the brand to life in 2005. Since then, Skindinavia’s The Makeup Finishing Spray has become the go-to way to seal-the-deal on the most important makeup applications across every genre of makeup artistry. From bridal to editorial, film and television to red carpet – Skindinavia has helped countless makeup applications stay their course in the most incredible of conditions. The later introduction of the brand’s The Makeup Primer Spray along with last year’s Post-Makeup Recovery Spray, found Skindinavia deepening their connection to pros across the industry and, in particular, Hollywood’s biggest projects and most well stocked makeup kits.
Always one to give back, to the artist community who have supported Skindinavia since day one, Allen enthusiastically joined the most important businesses in the pro-beauty space, once again this year, as a sponsor of the Make-Up Artists & Hair Stylists Guild Awards (MUAHS).

Knowing how to read and write means having the freedom to express yourself fully and build your own future freely, Lancôme’s belief. This is why they created the Write Her Future initiative, a commitment to combat illiteracy among women in both developed and developing countries. Surprisingly the number of illiterate women has not changed for the past 20 years, 76 million young women around the world are illiterate. With the Write Her project, Lancôme has committed to raising awareness of this cause, and has partnered with CARE to invest nearly 3 million US dollars over the next five years to fund international literacy programs and develop local support communities to help. “Young women lack basic reading and writing skills. Often hidden, this handicap causes young women to face exclusion and dependence, with serious consequences for themselves, their families. This is why Lancôme has committed give a voice to this invisible reality.” –Françoise Lehmann, Lancôme International President
Lancôme believes that to claim each woman’s right to education, they claim the right to become fully herself. They have also partnered with various ambassadors such as Julia Roberts, Lupitia Nyong’o, Lisa Eldridge and others to bring awareness to the cause via social networks. “Literacy is one of the most defining human skills. We read and write—that’s how we communicate, how we share, how we express our feelings, and how we learn to understand the world. To not have that accessible to everyone everywhere is really a crime. It’s so great for Lancôme to be involved and get serious about supporting young girls in the world through the work of Write Her Future.” – Julia Roberts, Lancôme Ambassadress, Actress.
