Caitlyn Jenner Releases Own Brand of Lipstick… For a Good Cause!

celebrityabout

Move over, Kylie Jenner. You are no longer the only member of your family with her very own lip-related product. Caitlyn Jenner has reined with MAC cosmetics to create a lipstick that celebrates her transition. It is titled “Finally Free” and the I Am Cait star is posing in the first print ad for the product above. As you can see here, the 65-year old transgender icon is donning a tight, gold dress while lying back and letting stylists make a few adjustments to her hair and her ensemble. But this is what you really need to know about the rosy lipstick: ALL proceeds will benefit the MAC AIDS Fund Transgender Initiative. “MAC was the first to come to me [after my transition], and a company, I realized, would really make a big commitment,” Jenner said in an interview with MAC Culture. “I knew the VIVA GLAM campaigns; I saw that the proceeds were going, in those cases, mainly to AIDS and HIV causes, and I was wondering if they were interested in doing something specifically geared toward trans issues, because we need funding.” The lipstick retails for $17 per package. “MAC is a global company,” Caitlyn adds. “It’s in places around the world where not just trans issues but women’s issues are a major subject that you have to talk about.” View Slideshow: Caitlyn Jenner Photos: So Long, Bruce! What a Year! The MAC Finally Free lipstick, whose shade and name Jenner helped select, will be available exclusively online starting April 7. ‘My ultimate fantasy – I never thought in a million years that it would ever happen – was to get involved with a makeup company,” Caitlyn says. “When you’re going through all of this, that’s just, like, never going to happen, but wouldn’t it be something to be involved in a project like that? Boy, watch out what you wish for, because it came true.”

Caitlyn Jenner Is Writing A Book About Her Transition Journey

celebrityabout

Caitlyn Jenner has already shared much of her transition to becoming a woman on her E! reality series, I Am Cait, but she’s still got more she wants to talk about/make money off of, so she’s going to write a book about the experience, as well. She’s not writing it on her own, of course — she’s teaming up with Grand Central Publishing, and writer Buzz Bissinger. If you don’t know who in the hell that is (because I didn’t recognize him by name, either), he’s the journalist behind the Vanity Fair piece where Caitlyn debuted last year. Here’s what Caitlyn said in a statement about the announcement: “Things have been moving so quickly that it will be nice to slow things down a bit and take the proper time to reflect on this journey. I couldn’t pick a better team, in Grand Central and Buzz, to make sure this story is told with a lot of honesty and care.” The book hasn’t been written yet, obviously, but it’s due to come out sometime in 2017. Frankly, I suppose I should say “good for her” for sharing her journey, but like… really? Do we need to know any more? Don’t get me wrong – I think it’s fantastic that Caitlyn was able to make such a brave decision to be herself, especially at her age… but like, she’s been a less than stellar example for the trans community, is super conservative, anti gay marriage (which is rich, considering…). I guess I just don’t think she’s that great of a person, and I don’t really get the fascination. I’d much rather read, say Candis Cayne’s biography. She’s infinitely more fascinating, kinder, and altogether more likable (so why she likes Caitlyn so much is beyond me). Or what about Laverne Cox? Those are literally just two wonderful trans entertainers and activists far more deserving of our attention… but you know, the Kardashian/Jenner clan rules everything, so this is what we’re left with.
