Rare Spotlight:
M·A·C x James Kaliardos
M·A·C has a history of pushing the boundaries of artistry, and the M·A·C x James Kaliardos collaboration stands as one of the boldest. Sparkle Society XO proudly holds two of the rarest pieces from this visionary release.
James Kaliardos isn’t just a makeup artist—he’s a fashion world icon. As co-founder of the legendary Visionaire magazine and a creative powerhouse behind some of the world’s most famous runway and editorial looks, Kaliardos is revered for his fearless use of color and texture.
In 2017, M·A·C tapped him as part of their "Make-Up Art Cosmetics Collection," teaming up with Kaliardos, Kabuki, and Diane Kendal for a limited-edition trio of artist-led drops. The Kaliardos capsule became an instant cult obsession.
The Sparkle Society XO vault holds two precious verified treasures from this rare release:
Almondine Lipstick – A soft, luminous nude with a modern twist. Understated yet effortlessly chic, the shade captures Kaliardos’ minimalist-meets-high-fashion vibe.
Black Grape Press Pigment Eyeshadow – Deep, dramatic, and richly pigmented, this mesmerizing shade delivers ultimate dimension and drama for eyes that won’t be ignored.
This collection defined what we love: beauty, fashion, art, and rare-as-hell collectibility.
