MAC Is Taking Us Waaaay Back With the MAC Throwback Lipsticks
AHHHH! Allow me to fly my MAC freak flag for a second, because I can remember with shocking clarity the night I wore MAC Skew Lipstick, one of the seven lipsticks in the MAC Throwback collection, to my friend Cindy’s birthday party in 2002.
I can’t remember what I had for lunch yesterday, but I remember wearing Skew 16 years ago with a blackened gray smoky eye (complete with glitter). I also remember touching it up beneath blue lights in a Castro dance club (and I may or may not have been a little tipsy) and thinking, “This is the best lipstick ever! This is the best night ever! I’m gonna dance like this forever!”
LOL. Ah, the good times I had with Skew.
I love this pink duochrome coral so much, and I went through several tubes. I can’t believe I didn’t realize it had been discontinued.
That’s MAC for ya. So many colors, so little time…
Like the other six lipsticks in MAC Throwback, Skew was cast aside!
OK, maybe that’s a little dramatic. It was “quietly retired.”
Well, now they’re back, at least temporarily.
