If you have a passion for art, design, fashion, and/or beauty but have not heard of MAKE, you should check them out! MAKE has been making waves as the 1st for-benefit cosmetic brand, and was created to change the beauty paradigm. The charming website is a phantasmagoric collection of creative, informative and easily navigable motioned imagery. Since their launch last year they have been encouraging creative self expression to women everywhere through the lens of creative minds across a number of unexpected industries. MAKE is made in America by MANA which develops products for NARS and other big brands.

Whether you need hair cut, color, style, manicure, brow shaping, and now makeup: at WONDERLAND you will get to experience Micheal’s visionary approach to beauty – whimsical, smart, sexy and fun.
