A hat trick from HCT

Published: 5-Dec-2010
Packaging Colour Cosmetics

The partnership between HCT and Urban Decay has once again proved fruitful with the creation of Urban Decay’s new Naked palette, featuring a selection of neutral eyeshadows and a double ended 24/7 Glide-On eye pencil. The long, slender card case is said to be slim and lightweight enough to carry in a handbag despite containing 12 shadows. The palette is decorated with a flocked faux velvet finish and block gold foil lettering while magnets in the lid and base provide a secure closure.

HCT has also helped manufacture two limited edition eye and face palettes for Edun, the clothing line created by Bono and Ali Hewson, which will be exclusive to US chain Sephora. Sustainable bamboo was the material of choice and the palette can be opened and closed using a pivoting hinge. The palette includes six mineral eyeshadows and a blusher.

Finally, Danish-born make-up artist Kirsten Kjaer Weis selected HCT to help create compacts for her new colour cosmetics brand Kjaer Weis. According to HCT, Weis worked with designer Marc Atlan before collaborating with HCT to manufacture the collection of heavyweight Zamac compacts containing products for eyes, lips and cheeks.
