We can conceive of “beauty and brains,” but never did we ponder “beauty and action-figures!” Marvel Custom Solutions has teamed up with Benefit Cosmetics to co-create SpyGal, a wise-cracking, pore-zapping persona modeled after the POREfessional pore minimizing primer.
The POREfessional ($29) is a beauty sensation, with over 1 million products sold worldwide. Can the super hero keep up with that? The packaging now depicts a sexy, vintage female action figure, and her weapons of choice? A pore-zapping gun and a touch-up case, naturally. Marvel and Benefit united a creative team including famed writer James Asmus (of Uncanny X-Men, Captain America) and acclaimed artist Phil Noto (Avengers: The Origin, X-Men Origins) to bring SpyGal to life.
SpyGal will contend with work and dating worries, while dishing out justice, and of course, beauty tips! The limited edition comic is available in May at Benefit counters everywhere.
Humor, strength and intelligence are the newest beauty remedy — and we are certainly not complaining.
