Marc Jacobs Beauty is speaking the language of coffee lovers with the new Cafe Marc Collection, which was inspired by swirls of coffee and cream. As well as featuring rich shades like Blacquer Coffee and Tantalize, the color cosmetics collection provides an energizing boost thanks to the fact it's actually infused with caffeine. Caffeine can be found in many anti-redness skincare products and as a skincare ingredient, it's especially beneficial for reducing puffiness.
The hero product in the collection is the Extra Shot Caffeine Concealer & Foundation, which shares the hydrating skincare benefits of ingredients like oat extract and five forms of coconut. The collection, which is set to officially launch soon, also includes the O!Mega x Palette for a compact way to apply bronzer, highlighter and blush on the go, as well as coffee-inspired shades of the Highliner Matte Gel Eye Crayon.
