Ultra-hip jean maker, Rock & Republic, has unveiled a [luxury cosmetics line](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/la-beaut-louis-vuitton) for the lips, eyes, and face. The company who helped launch Victoria Beckham’s denim collection, is bound to catch the attention of uber-cool females looking for the trendiest make-up.

Rock & Republic’s mascara is called ‘Extremist’ and is described as, “a push-up bra for your lashes.” Now that’s a visual description all women can relate to.

‘Trickery’ is a tinted illuminator for the face, “that uses light-diffusing polymers and oil-absorbing properties to help you appear as fresh and dewy as a [Hollywood](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hollywood-beauty-icon-lipsticks) starlet,” according to JustLuxe.

For the lips they offer ‘Luxe’ for “the ultimate pout.” It’s a glossy colour that will come in a myriad of shades.

The packaging, of course, reflects the brand’s chic style; silver, black and sleek, all with the R & R logo.
