On April 1st, a day when people brace for an April Fools' bait-and-switch, NYX Professional Makeup used the universal disappointment of the "not real" reveal as the perfect setup to announce a playful The Simpsons x NYX collaboration that’s delightfully, actually real.

The colorful cosmetics collection is full of fun details for fans of the long-running series, like Smushy Matte Lip Balms that feature jagged yellow packaging reminiscent of The Simpsons children’s hairstyles, the Maggie Simpson Bow Makeup Sponge, and the Marge Simpson Mega Glue, complete with a cap that mimics the iconic character’s tall blue hair. And Homer Simpson's favorite snack—a pink, glazed donut with sprinkles—is referenced in one highlighter’s hue, naming and packaging.
