[Disney's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mac-partnered-with-disney) latest highly anticipated live action movie, 'Maleficent,' which stars none-other-than Angelina Jolie, has just become the inspiration behind the [Mac Cosmetics](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mac-cosmetics-x-doja-cat) x Maleficent makeup line. Considering how devilishly beautiful the [iconic villain](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/disney-villains-2) is portrayed as in the film, it is only natural that fans would want to recreate her look for themselves.

Whether used on a daily basis or for special occasions such as Halloween, the Mac Cosmetics x Maleficent makeup line is comprised of a powder, lipstick, lip gloss, lip pencil, nail lacquer, eyeshadow, fake eyelashes and more. Available exclusively at MAC Makati and MAC Rockwell come June 2014, which is just after the movie's theatrical release date, the line embraces shades of red, gold and brown to create an air of dark mystery.
