Supermodel and actress Brooke Shields has teamed up with MAC PC to create the latest installment for its Icon collection; previous aide featured style stars like Diana Ross, Catherine Deneuve, Raquel Welch, and many others. The limited-edition color collection of colors and finishes was chosen by Shields herself, influenced by her own favorite looks for day and night-easy, contemporary, and beautiful. The products are made all the more special with her signature bank embossed on light grey packaging with orange features. Here is what the newly minted icon had to say concerning the process, her adorable daughters, and of course those famous eyebrows.
How did the collaboration with MAC come about? What exactly are your favorite products in your collection?
I am really friendly along with James Gager, the creative director of MAC, so when he approached me about working with him on my own Icon selection for MAC I was incredibly flattered and went directly to my homework. I created my own inspiration book along with tear sheets, smudges of different colors and palettes, small drawings, and images of women from the past. The whole process required about two years and I enjoyed every second of it. I really like all the products, of course , but my absolutely favorite is the dry duo ($31; maccosmetics. com)-it’s so versatile.
Your eye brows are still so iconic. Do they require a lot of upkeep until now have it down to a science?
To be honest, I do as little for them as possible, I always have. I don’t get them professionally done, an excellent I’m in the makeup chair, I’ll have the artist draw a stray or two. The one time I did get them expertly done (many years ago) I just didn’t feel like personally, and I looked really surprised.
What will you teach your own daughters about beauty?
I always tell them to not look beyond themselves but to look inside. I teach them to commemorate how they are each different, unique and special. We constantly remind them that they are a beautiful both inside and away, but let them know they have to have to believe it. Maybe basically just reiterate it enough over the years it will become program for them both.

Do they try and get into your makeup already?
Oh absolutely! They are obsessed with makeup and were so excited when they heard about my project with MAC. They’re constantly playing with makeup, but they’re too young to go out with anything more than a little lip gloss.
What’s your most unconventional beauty advice?
I was taught to take a really deep breath while putting in eye drops and it helps me from tearing, especially if I have makeup on. A little odd, but I use it today!
What do you never leave home without?
My blush duo. It’s so versatile. I use a little on my cheeks, my lips and even my eyes. It instantly brightens up my face.
Which products do you still keep coming back to year after year?
I’ve always loved MAC wipes ($20; maccosmetics.com) and Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Cream ($21; elizabetharden.com).
