NYX Professional Makeup Launches Makeup Collection Inspired by 20th Century Studios’ Avatar: The Way of Water
NYX Professional Makeup announced today the launch of a limited-edition makeup collection in celebration of the highly anticipated 20th Century Studios Avatar sequel, Avatar: The Way of Water.
The collection was inspired by the characters in the film, along with the vibrant, bioluminescent hues strikingly apparent throughout the land and sea in the world of Pandora.
The assortment features a number of exciting new vegan and cruelty-free palettes, highlighters, lipsticks, glosses and setting spray: the Avatar: The Way of Water Color Palette with 24 eye-catching shades (€42,50) reflecting the lush forests and illuminating seas; the Pandoran Paradise Palette with six highlighters and blushes (€26,50); the Biolume Highlighter Sticks in the shades Seagrass & Coral Reef (€15,95), inspired by the Na’vi clans; Paper Lipsticks (€11,95) in two bold shades Neytiri and Ronal inspired by the fierce, regal leaders in the film; Luminescent Lip Glosses (€10,50) with three electrifying shades Shimme, Biolum and Ilu-mu ; and the Metkayina Mist setting spray (€10,50) infused with marine ingredients.
In addition to offering a vegan and cruelty-free range of products, this collection also aims to reduce the environmental impact on the planet. The palettes, lipsticks, facial mist, and paint are all created with recycled materials, minimizing existing waste.
To further celebrate the release of the film and as part of the Avatar: The Way of Water “Keep Our Oceans Amazing” campaign, Disney, Avatar, and NYX Professional Makeup are inviting fans to take part in celebratory experiences that support The Nature Conservancy, a global environmental nonprofit organization. Fans are encouraged to participate in a fun social media challenge which supports the collaboration. From November 30, 2022 to February 28, 2023, for every social media post using #NYXCosmeticsForAvatar, #KeepOurOceansAmazing and #AvatarTheWayOfWater, NYX Professional Makeup will donate €1 to The Nature Conservancy and its efforts to protect 10 of our oceans’ amazing animals and their habitats.
“As a beauty brand known for launching the boldest pro-level pigments, we’re thrilled to collaborate with 20th Century Studios’ Avatar: The Way of Water to help bring the vibrant and colorful world of Pandora to life through this unique collection. In conjunction with the Avatar: The Way of Water “Keep Our Oceans Amazing” campaign and The Nature Conservancy’s mission to conserve the lands and waters on which all life depends, we pride ourselves in offering mindful cruelty-free and vegan formulas as part of our pledge to take responsibility and offer conscientious products. We are excited to marry these critical initiatives and support another cause that aligns with our core values.”
