The M.A.C. Prep and Prime Oils Collection Is About to Drop

Just when you thought M.A.C. was done dropping its holiday offerings, the cult-favorite cosmetics brand goes and reveals a collection so cool it's worthy of your immediate attention: the M.A.C. Prep and Prime Oils line.

The cosmetics-first brand is digging deeper into the skin-care realm with its latest line, the M.A.C. Prep and Prime Oils collection. How, you might ask? With a set of soothing plant-derived essentials oils formulated specifically for post-cleanse application—as a primer, if you will—before the rest of your skin-care routine. In case you're just casually reading this post and not picking up what we're putting down, it's pretty big news. M.A.C. has managed to create an oil that isn't slick or makeup repellant. Instead, it quenches the skin as it clings onto whatever you layer on top. That's big news here in the beauty-sphere. Happily, the claims stack-up. A few drops under makeup result in nothing short of a healthy glow (and makeup that doesn't budge).

These botanical-infused oils come in three different scents for every nose-proclivity: There's the zippy Grapefruit & Chamomile, the calming Sweet Orange & Lavender, and the energizing Yuzu, and each retails for $27. And in case you didn't notice from the photo above, the M.A.C. Prep and Prime Oils collection also includes a Prep+Prime Essential Oils Stick, which offers the same soothing and hydrating benefits as the oils but in a solid stick form that's great for under-eye touchups and hitting those hard-to-reach crevices, like around the nose. We should also mention, if you're always on the go, this tiny tube might just be your new go-to, as after a few swipes of application, you can quickly pop it back into your bag before heading out the door. Can't wait to get your hands on the line? Us either. Too bad you'll have to wait until December 26. Post-presents shopping spree, anyone?
