You know you’ve made it when you have a) made a guest star appearance on Gossip Girl, or b) collaborated with M.A.C Cosmetics to create your own lipstick.
Along with the likes of other infamous stars Lady GaGa and Nicki Minaj, hate her or love her, the Harlem-born and raised 21 year old with the biggest case of potty mouth, Azealia Banks, is now branching out from music and fashion to beauty – little Zee Zee has a M.A.C lipstick!
The limited edition lipstick, Yung Rapunxel, named after the infamous rap-pop luminary’s alter-ego, comes in a shade that somewhat resembles the much-loved M.A.C shade, Rebel (which, in this case, makes total sense), and matches the hue Banks dons on the cover of her debut EP, 1991.
Set to be released in honour of Vogue Fashion’s Night Out, the deep plum lipstick will be available online on September 5th, 2012, released in all M.A.C stores across New York on the 6th, and on hand for purchase until the 20th, where it is set to be discontinued.
Come September, Yung Rapunxel will undoubtedly be the talk (and shade) on everybody’s lips – I know I’ll be making this sh*t mine, mine.
