I stopped by the MAC Cosmetics PRO store on Robertson Blvd. the other day to chat with Rick Baker and check out his collection for MAC. Now, obviously, MAC is known for being the go-to Halloween makeup brand since they have some truly amazing products that boast rich pigment and long wear, which is why it’s no surprise that I was truly in AWE of the three looks that Rick and MAC came up with for Halloween 2013.  By the way, these makeup looks were done with just MAC makeup, no plastics or additional costume products, which is insane!  I spoke to Rick, legendary Hollywood makeup artist, about his favorite MAC products to use on set.  The answer?  “Makeup effects demand very specific products as many ordinary makeup products won’t work on rubber appliances.  If I am doing paint makeup, I like to use Chromacakes, Paint Stick and MAC’s acrylic paint.  I also like a combination of mixing medium and cosmetic pigments.”
