The PÜR X Barbie has been introduced as the latest makeup line to draw its inspiration from the iconic doll from Mattel.
The collection spotlights a full range of face and body products, which includes brushes, eye palettes, highlighters, lipsticks and glosses, perfumes, skincare, and nail polish. All of the products are outfitted in vivid hot pink branding, staying true to Barbie's iconic aesthetic.
Although the hot pink packaging and gold-lettered Barbie branding certainly make the inspiration behind the products clear, they're all incredibly versatile. To accomplish this, PÜR sticks to classic neutral shades of pink and brown for its palettes, and features a simple range of lip colors that include varying shades of nude to complement different skin tones, and timeless reds and pinks.
