Makeup By Mario Brand Guidelines
The colour line of a celebrity makeup artist.

Two constants: a bronze palette and a celebrity-MUA-sans register. Abstract homage — not a Makeup By Mario product or mark.
The colour line of a celebrity makeup artist
Makeup By Mario is the colour-cosmetics line of celebrity makeup artist Mario Dedivanovic.
Makeup By Mario brings the round a celebrity artist’s name — the colour line of Mario Dedivanovic, a makeup artist known for a long collaboration with a major celebrity and for popularising the masterclass tutorial, built on eyeshadow palettes and complexion. Makeup By Mario makes colour cosmetics, and its answer to a round about the artist’s line is technique made product: a range that turns an artist’s teaching into tools. A brand, taught.
Its identity is the colour line of a celebrity makeup artist. The founder’s reputation, its education heritage and its independence are the story here. A brand, taught. The colour line of a celebrity makeup artist.
(Honest notes, so the story stays precise, and the claims stay the brand’s own. Makeup By Mario, at makeupbymario.com, makes colour cosmetics — eyeshadow palettes, complexion, contour, cheek and lip — with heroes such as its Master Mattes eyeshadow palette and its SurrealSkin foundation, and we report its finish and performance language as the brand’s own marketing, not established fact. It was launched in 2020 by Mario Dedivanovic, a celebrity makeup artist of Albanian heritage born in New York, known for a years-long collaboration with a major celebrity and for originating the makeup masterclass, and it is New-York-rooted. On where it is made, a theme of this round, a country of manufacture is not documented, so we do not assert one. On ownership, a star theme of this round, it presents as founder-led, described by the artist as his legacy, with no parent or investors disclosed, so we say only that it is founder-led, without asserting absolute independence, and it is not conglomerate-owned. Its name, a personal-name brand, and its product names are IP we describe but do not reproduce; there is no official brand hex; these tones are an unofficial interpretation.)
Colour
Makeup By Mario lives in a bronze. Click a swatch to copy the hex.
Makeup By Mario’s identity is technical, warm and polished — a bronze, an ink, a wheat, a deep bronze, and a paper. The palette leans bronze and wheat: a warm, contour-adjacent register that nods to sculpting and a neutral, technique-led artistry rather than a loud palette. It signals a celebrity artist’s line. The honest caveat: with no published brand hex, these values are an original, unofficial interpretation, not first-party colours.
The lesson is a bronze signals a technical, polished identity. Makeup By Mario’s world is a considered, made object. For designers, it is a reminder that a bronze and a soft wheat can carry a makeup brand — the tone of contour and technique. Because these tones can fail as small text, keep type dark and let the colour live in the accents, palette and band. The takeaways: teach the technique; make the tools; report claims as marketing; and treat any single hex as unofficial.
Typography
The register is a celebrity-MUA sans — technical, plain, polished.
Makeup By Mario’s identity carries a technical, plain, polished spirit — an artist’s brand, not a fashion. A celebrity-MUA sans captures the mood: clean, technical and confident, the register of a teacher. Set in a bronze palette, the celebrity-MUA sans feels technical and polished — exactly the personality Makeup By Mario carries. It is a technique rather than a logo, mirroring a shadow and a contour. (Makeup By Mario’s real packaging is a thing we describe but do not reproduce, and the exact typeface is not ours to use.) Because it is not ours to use, the honest description is “a celebrity-MUA-sans makeup,” shown here in a stand-in. The type behaves like the brand: technical, plain and polished.

The artist’s line
Makeup By Mario stands for the colour line of a celebrity makeup artist.
Makeup By Mario brings the round a celebrity artist’s name. A bronze palette, a celebrity-MUA sans and an education heritage make one thing — the colour line of a celebrity makeup artist — the whole identity: technical, warm and polished. The artist is the meaning, and the masterclass is the heritage. The point is a range that turns an artist’s teaching into tools, under his own name.
Put to work, the identity is technique told straight, as design — with the ownership framed honestly and the claims kept as claims. A maker in this spirit would teach the technique, make the tools, and report claims as marketing. A reader in this spirit would keep the facts right: Makeup By Mario makes colour cosmetics, its Master Mattes palette and SurrealSkin foundation the heroes; it was launched in 2020 by Mario Dedivanovic, a celebrity makeup artist known for a long celebrity collaboration and the masterclass, in New York; a country of manufacture is undocumented; and it presents as founder-led, with no investors disclosed, not conglomerate-owned. Makeup By Mario sits with Danessa Myricks and Natasha Denona on the round’s founder-led side, and it carries the celebrity-masterclass thread. The honest editorial moves are to date it to 2020, to name the founder and his heritage, to say the making is undocumented, and to describe the ownership as founder-led without asserting absolute independence. The lesson Makeup By Mario teaches is that an artist’s technique can become a product line, and framing the ownership honestly keeps it credible.
For designers and brand-builders, Makeup By Mario continues the artist’s line: teach the technique — and make the tools. The lessons: build a brand on an artist’s teaching; make education part of the identity; report finish and performance language as your own; describe ownership honestly, without overstating independence; and never reproduce packaging. It is also a reminder to stay precise: Makeup By Mario is the colour-cosmetics line of celebrity makeup artist Mario Dedivanovic — with the palette here an unofficial interpretation. Read that way, Makeup By Mario is less a palette than a technique: an artist, taught. The lesson for a brand is that a technique and honest ownership reinforce each other, and describing the backing plainly keeps the story earned. Makeup By Mario made the-colour-line-of-a-celebrity-makeup-artist the identity — proof that technique can carry a brand.
