Frost Lipstick Is Back, and Dare I Say, Better Than Ever

Last week, MAC announced its newest campaign, MAC Frost, highlighting 10 new frosty lipsticks and three old favorites that were brought back (Chintz, Spanish Fly, and Jet). In fact, the campaign was fronted by Parsons herself.

This is easily the most comprehensive frost lineup we’ve seen in well over a decade, with pinks, neutrals, reds, browns, and tons of cool-toned funky shades. My current favorite, TV Gold, a gray with brown undertones, is also loved by Anderson. “It’s one I like to layer on top of lipsticks to create a cooler frost version of my current faves,” he says. “It also looks great on its own paired with a gray lip liner, like Stone, or a brown pencil, like MAC Chestnut.”

Many of the shades MAC brought back were actually the ones that Parsons and Harper combed through eBay to order. Chintz, for example, is a brown with warm frost that’s perfect for deep skin (and I’ve already worn it a few times). But Parsons loves Jet. “That was the one shade I couldn’t dupe or recreate,” she says. “It’s a blackened silver with almost a slight purplish undertone—from what I’ve seen, it looks great on every skin tone.”
