With a total of 28 different shades making up the new 'ColourRocker' collection from [MAC](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lustreglass-lip-trio), it makes sense that a great number of the shades included are a little on the unconventional side.

Although there's plenty of more neutral hues to satisfy consumers who might be looking for a more subtle shade to wear on the daily, there's a vast variety of [bold hues](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/velvet-cream-lipstick) for those interested in making a statement. A few colors that fall under this category include the pastel blue 'Instant Icon,' the highlighter green 'Madness' and the light lilac hue that's dubbed 'Flatter Me Fierce.'

Also featured is a bright orange, teal and a deep violet shade. Each has a matte finish that allows the [pigmented color to pop](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/reserve-lip-color). Consumers can expect the entire ColourRocker collection to release in February.
