Mary Phillips, And Chris McMillan On Their New Beauty Lines

There are some invisible hands in your Sephora cart. These fingers and palms have cradled, molded, massaged, and brushed some of the most well-known faces and hair for decades, and now they've created their own lines—testing hundreds of formulas, handpicking the best shades, and pouring their expertise into every creation. This fall, you'll be able to find debut collections from hairstylist Chris McMillan and makeup artists Hung Vanngo and Mary Phillips , with products that they promise will perform. "We're doing this every day on the most famous people in the world," Phillips says. "We know what works and what doesn't work."

Creating his own line had always been a dream, especially after working with Selena Gomez , Julianne Moore , and Cindy Crawford (his rich use of color and artful blending have been deemed the "Hung Vann Glow"). His collection includes punchy one-swipe lipsticks, velvety blushes, creamy bronzers, and eyeshadow palettes. The shades are extra-pigmented and sumptuous, the Vanngo trademark. An eyeshadow isn't just brown—it's the richest, sultriest chocolate-brown you've ever seen (and you probably have—blended into Scarlett Johansson's lash line).

Despite Vanngo's starry client base, "this line isn't just for makeup artists," he says. Running a successful YouTube channel, where he hosts tutorials and personally responds to comments, has taught him what viewers want. The result is a line that he says is "editorial, but also not [too] crazy for everyday people. I don't want to come out with a makeup line with an attitude that is like, 'I'm doing this. I don't care if people like it or not.' I want people to feel, touch, and get excited."
