(MENAFNEditorial) --> PALO ALTO, Calif., May 1, 2017 /PRNewswire/ --Meitu, Inc. (SEHK: 1357), a leading mobile internet company with its apps installed on more than 1.1 billion unique devices worldwide, today announced the launch of exclusive virtual makeup looks created by top social media celebrity Bretman Rock. Bretman Rock's three makeup looks are available for virtual try-on globally through Meitu's MakeupPlus app.
With more than 10 million followers on social media, the Hawaii-based social media star is known for embellishing his vlogs and makeup tutorials with sharp, cutting humor and sass. Represented by APA agency in Los Angeles, Bretman Rock's online presence has skyrocketed in recent months with his viral post of his over-highlighted ID photo, hosting of the red carpet at Miss Universe 2017 and announcement of a new highlighter palette collaboration in the works. Bretman is now bringing three of his most requested looks to MakeupPlus for his fans to virtually try on through their smartphones.
Bretman Rocks Makeup Looks - #SlayWithBretman "Makeup is all about creativity to me. It's fun that my viewers can now try on some of the looks they've been asking about. I mean…I'm really cute, so I understand why they've been wanting to look like me," said Bretman Rock. "In all seriousness, partnering with MakeupPlus is something new for me and gives people the opportunity to instantly try these looks that they may not normally wear or experiment with in real life. Imitation is the sincerist form of flattery, so I'm really flattered with seeing everyone #SlayWithBretman with this launch."
"Bretman's confidence and humor are contagious, and our users adore Bretman's trendsetting makeup aesthetic – super glowy, glamorous and always unique!" said Liz Goodno, Global Marketing Communication Director at Meitu.

Boujee – Extra "lit" cheek bone highlight, gold glitter lower lash liner and oxblood red matte lips make up this classy and festive look. Boujee in all the right places. Whatevah – Faux freckles are having a major moment – and Bretman's faux freckles are perfectly paired with natural, fully lashed-out eyes and a creamy, classic red lipstick. Very naughty-meets-nice. Mary Jane – Green is the color of envy, and we all envy Bretman's makeup skills #goals! Bretman makes a regal, full-face statement in shimmery purple lips adorned with a single diamond-like stone.
