Though Christine Quinn is constantly working and coming up with new ideas, she always manages to put a lot of effort into everything she does, including her new makeup line, Ciaté London x Christine Quinn.
The collection — which dropped in late September — features eye, lip and complexion products that come in bold colors and are vegan and made from cruelty-free formulations, and she is looking forward to her fans trying out the products for themselves.
"It’s the biggest form of flattery because I love [the collection] so much," the 32-year-old exclusively tells OK! about her latest venture. "I want everyone else to have it and that is really why I created it. I wanted to create one palette that is an every day go-to. I don’t need to crazy colors, I just really wanted a solid foundation, so this was it for me. I hope that people love it. I put so much hard work into it, and I think it’s incredible. In those nine shades, you can really play and have a lot of fun [with it]."
It all started when Charlotte [Ciaté's founder] reached out to Quinn, and from there, the collection was born.
"She watched the show and she said, 'I just love you, I think there is something really fun here, and I love that you are always glam.' She loved that there is this sweet and sassy side to me, and she knew it and she saw it and she said, 'I really want to encapsulate this and do a collection with you.' I was so thrilled — I felt like someone understood me!" she says.
From satin finishes to matte finishes, the palette, which consists of nine shades, is perfect for anyone — and the lip creams even change colors.
"I love the gloss, and I use it every single day," she raves. "However, the No Filter highlighter really surprised me. It’s really hard to find formulas that are able to have a body glow in a powdered form, and this one was really game-changing to me. I fell in love with it and the fact that it’s so easy to do."
Even though the blonde babe's makeup is flawless, she admits she looks up to Marilyn Monroe "because I grew up watching all of her movies" and Kim Kardashian.
"I love her! She is fabulous – everything she does, she makes it look good, and she is just fabulous. There is something about her where she can pull off no makeup and the most makeup and still look incredible," she says.
Ultimately, Quinn hopes she can inspire others — whether it's through her makeup line, showing off her realtor skills or just being on reality TV.
"That’s the only reason I work. That’s the only reason I do it. Growing up, watching films and TV — that is how I found people that I related to and that is how I found people I wanted to be like and admire and aspire to, so that is really the best thing. I love helping people out and making them feel a certain way. I never knew what I wanted to do, but I said, 'I just want to make people feel something,'" she says.
