8th December, India: Maybelline New York is thrilled to unveil its exclusive collaboration with Netflix’s "The Archies", ahead of its release on the 7th of December. The number 1 Make-up brand in the world joins forces with Netflix and the most iconic gang in pop culture in history and we’re here for it.
Set in 1960’s India in the fictional hill station town called Riverdale, The Archies is a coming-of-age musical following the lives of the town’s favorite set of teenagers - Archie, Betty, Veronica, Jughead, Reggie, Ethel and Dilton. Seen through the lens of the unique Anglo-Indian community, The Archies explores friendship, freedom, love, heartbreak and rebellion.
The collaboration is a celebration of nostalgia, inviting fans to revel in the classic charm of the beloved Archies gang and express their individuality through carefully curated makeup. It brings to life the Gen Z obsession with nostalgia creating a bridge between different generations. The film's theme of finding one's bold, authentic voice and making it happen resonates deeply with what Maybelline stands for as a brand.
The Limited-Edition Collection features Maybelline’s most loved products in a brand-new The Archies avatar to create the perfect glam look with a Twist of Retro. Start off your base with Fit Me Foundation – which will fit your skin tone perfectly while giving you the flawless matte finish. Get a perfect winged liner with the Colossal Bold Liner that’s smudge proof and lasts up to 24 Hrs. Add more drama to your lashes with the Colossal Mascara that gives 2X the volume to lashes. For the perfect bold lip, pick one out of the 9 shades of Super Stay Matte ink which will last through all your sips and bites with its 16Hr long lasting formula. To complete the look, add a little flush to your cheeks with Fit Me Blush, available in 6 pigmented shades.
Maybelline New York brand ambassador, Suhana Khan, channels her sense of style, sophistication, and sass into the one and only Veronica Lodge making this partnership even more exciting and sought after. “I am so excited about this collaboration. It’s such a wholesome feeling to see two of my firsts coming together in such a dreamy crossover.
