MAC Rodarte and Victims of Juarez



MEXICO CITY, M̩xico, July 29, 2010 РIn response to public concern over the limited edition MAC Rodarte makeup collection, set to launch in fall 2010, MAC will donate all of its global profits from this collection to a newly created initiative to raise awareness and provide on-the-ground support to the women and girls in Juarez. MAC and Rodarte are deeply sorry that this makeup collection was so offensive to the people of Mexico and concerned global citizens.
This announcement follows a meeting last evening in Mexico City with MAC executives and Mexican government officials, including CONAVIM (Comisión Nacional Para Prevenir y Erradicar la Violencia Contra las Mujeres/National Commission to Prevent and Eradicate Violence Against Women.)
During the meeting, held at the Mexican Ministry of Foreign Affairs, this collective group committed to working together on the overall direction of the new initiative to help the women and girls of Juarez and to raise global awareness of their plight. MAC executives reiterated their deep regret and reinforced that it was never MAC’s or Rodarte’s intent to minimize the suffering of the women and girls of Ciudad Juarez.
In the coming weeks, MAC and Rodarte will be consulting with members of CONAVIM´s advisory board, as well as other local and global experts, to develop a comprehensive framework that provides grants to local and international organizations with a track record of improving the lives of the women and girls in Juarez.
“We are deeply sorry and apologize to everyone we offended, especially the victims, the women and girls of Juarez and their families. We have heard the response of concerned global citizens loud and clear and are doing our very best to right our wrong. The essence of MAC is to give back and care for the community and our initial handling of this makeup collection was not reflective of MAC’s values. MAC and Rodarte are committed to using these learnings to raise awareness on this important issue and to leverage our unique platform to help the women and girls of Juarez,” said MAC President John Demsey.
“Rodarte is committed to using creativity for positive social change. As designers, we strongly feel it is our responsibility to use ideas and actions for the good of our global community and are truly sorry for the offense we have caused. We are raising our voices in support of the strong women and girls of Juarez and joining others who are working internationally to improve their lives,” said Kate and Laura Mulleavy, designers of Rodarte.
Last week, MAC and Rodarte announced they would also be renaming the products and redesigning the marketing materials associated with the collection.
MAC has a longstanding tradition of service in Mexico, supporting important social causes in the country such as HIV prevention and treatment. Since 2002, the MAC AIDS Fund has donated hundreds of thousands of dollars to local entities, including Fundación Eudes, La Casa de la Sal, A.C., Ser Humano, A.C., Mesón de la Misericordia Divina A.C., Pirana Studio, and Fundación Unidos por un México Vivo.
MAC has had operations in Mexico since 1999. The brand currently employs more than 150 local professionals.

Stila BCBGMAXAZRIA special occasions look #3 Glamorous

stila_752

To create this look, apply Kitten to the base of your eye. Next add the drama with Brown Smudge Pot. Instead of drawing a straight line across the lash line, use feathery strokes and pull the product into your lash line with a liner brush, such as Stila Brush #28. Next, you can just flip over Stila Brush #28 (or use your fingers) to buff out the harsh lines (for the brave: add eye shadow shade Espresso to your lid and Eden to your crease.)
Next apply Vanilla Lip Glaze for the perfect nude lip to complement your dramatic eyes.
Finish the look by applying Camellia Convertible Color to your cheeks for a natural glow.
Set Includes:
Eye Shadow- Kitten
Smudge Pot- Brown
Convertible Color- Camellia
Lip Glaze- Vanilla

DSCF6420 DSCF6421 DSCF6422 DSCF6423 DSCF6424 DSCF6425 DSCF6426 DSCF6427

 

I have bought this palette from eBay and i thought worth to try as  i have mentioned you on my previous posts i am mad about concealers, i have at least 3 concealers from each brand

i was not expecting this much good palette

it is such better than my expectations

1- it is fragrance free

2-it looks like the colours are either too light or too dark but not at all as you can see  in the swatches

3- you can use the dark colours as a bronzer or to contour your face

4- you can use the lightest colour to  brighten  your under eyes or just a highlighter

5- i used the No3 concealer as a cream foundation and  it works pretty well
