MAC Cosmetics is once again paying homage to the late singer Selena, with a new beauty collection.

The makeup brand has announced an upcoming second collection featuring Selena Quintanilla-Perez, the American singer-songwriter known as the "the Queen of Tejano", who passed away in 1995. The move follows an original collaboration with the Quintanilla family, which launched in 2016.

"The legend lives on," MAC took to Instagram to declare. "A new Selena Quintanilla collection arrives in select markets in April!" No further details about the collection have been confirmed, although the brand has revealed that the 'Lipglass' in 'Bidi Bidi Bom Bom' that featured in the original series will make a comeback,"by popular demand".

The line, dubbed "Selena La Reina" will celebrate the singer-songwriter's life and long-lasting impact. "This collection is a celebration of her legacy, it's for her fans," the star's sister Suzette Quintanilla told Allure.

MAC has a long history of collaborating with influential female artists - the brand has previously worked with Nicki Minaj, Mariah Carey and Ariana Grande on makeup pieces or collections. The label also rolled out a collection dedicated to the iconic late singer Aaliyah back in 2018. -- AFP Relaxnews
