Marimekko to Avon

The Finnish company has just announced a collaboration with beauty giant Avon. Marimekko has agreed to license its signature pattern, Unikko, to Avon for the makeup range, which will consist of just four products - an eye shadow, face powder, lip gloss and mascara, in addition to accessories.

We know we're going to start seeing girls whip out bright pink Marimekko/Avon makeup bags on the subway come October, when the line debuts. But we're hoping the print isn't just relegated to cute packaging. We're hoping Avon takes a cue from our favorite limited edition compact ever, YSL's Opium palette, and make the actual makeup in the favorite print and colors of Marimekko.

We're not sure how wearable a bright fuschia and yellow eyeshadow duo would be, but wouldn't it look so cute on our dresser?
