Ok all you Twilighters out there, you didn’t think you could possibly get any more of your favourite characters now that you can read about them, watch them, play with them, dress in them, follow them on Twitter (@peterfacinelli, @gilbirmingham, @Rachelle_Lefevr, @billy_burke) and for a short period of time, smell like them. Well, you were wrong. DuWop cosmetics, the very brand favoured by the New Moon make-up artists, have announced that they will be launching a new line of products based on the saga.
The first product to hit the market will be a limited edition of their cult favourite Lip Venom. Lip Venom V, which is designed to look like a vial of blood, “is a shimmering crimson lip stain suspended in a venom-laced liquid lip conditioner with a bite ... This product should be shaken before use to represent the blending of the human and vampire worlds and applied repeatedly until lips are plumped, revitalized and the desired intensity of color has been reached”. It may all sound a little bit much, but it doesn’t stop there, DuWop founder Cristina Bartolucci promises sparkly skin, flushed cheeks and juicy lips from the items in the rest of the range which have names such as First Light Body Glow and Mortal Glow Blushing Crème.
That said given DuWop’s history of innovative products we have reason to believe that they might just pull it off and despite their own admission that, “DuWop has made a name for itself by figuring out what's missing from the market”, this range will be more than just another company cashing in on the Twilight phenomenon.
Lip Venom V is available from 1st July; the rest of the range will be available in the autumn to tie in with the release of New Moon.
