This Hot Topic Makeup Line Was Made in Collaboration with Polly Pocket
Riley von Niessen — January 24, 2019 — Fashion
The Hot Topic makeup section has been the subject of a number of unique collaborations in the past, and the retail chain is continuing this with a Polly Pocket partnership that's resulted in a 17-piece series that honors the pocket-sized toy and the elements associated with it.
The makeup comes in small compacts that reflect the toy's original packaging. Eyeshadows, lipsticks, and more make use of the same classic pastel color themes used in much of the doll's rubber clothing and accessories, as well as the iconic house. Also included in the series is a travel-sized hair brush, and makeup applicators.
Fans of the franchise will be able to pick up a range of Polly Pocket apparel from Hot Topic as well.
