If there’s one partnership that simply makes sense, it’s Chappell Roan as the newest Global Brand Ambassador for MAC Cosmetics. The pop icon has been a longtime collaborator of the brand for years, with her makeup artist Andrew Dahling attributing many of Roan’s most iconic drag looks to M·A·C Cosmetics staples.
“Partnering with M·A·C feels full circle.
