“So happy to let you guys know that I am creating my own lipstick with @maccosmetics! Feels surreal to be chosen as one of the influencers and to be the first Filipina to have a lipstick collab with MAC,” she previously wrote on Instagram.

That collaboration was a success as her lippie was a certified sold-out.

Maine’s opportunity to work with MAC last year was not the first and the last. Early this month, the Phenomenal Star flew to New York and everyone speculated that she will have a new MAC Lipstick.

However, this time, she will be the new face of StudioFix line.

“It really is a big deal. Honestly, It was a big opportunity to have her. We are one of the three markets to have a face,“ Brand Manager Gay Lao commented about Maine Mendoza.

The reaction from the EB Dabarkad was, “Such an honor, to be honest. I really am thankful. I am just a barangay girl, why me?”

Why Maine? Lao answered, “Why not? Look how beautiful she is. The main reason why we chose her is we wanted someone who really represents Filipina beauty. Rational, macmaker last year. Our top selling shade is NC35 and she wear NC35. then definitely, she is a good representation of every Filipina.”

Based on the article from MB Life, the Phenomenal Star has been using Mac’s Circa 2012 since she was in college.

“Since college, hindi talaga ako magamit ng makeup, cheek tint lang and powder. Ngayon ko lang ginagamit ang liquid foundation for shoot and studio,” she shared.
