NARS Spring 2009 Collection


NARS has come up with some great new products to add to your spring looks this year. What better to offset the spring runway’s preponderance of exotic prints, slinky jumpsuits, and bold patterns crammed with oversize blooms, than a beauty look that is both strong and sophisticated.

“My inspiration for spring was a very sexy woman,” explains François Nars, Founder and Creative Director of NARS Cosmetics. same time.”

A striking matte brick-red eyeshadow, made infinitely more wearable in combination with a pearly white shadow or simple black liner, is tempered by a sweet, baby pink glossy lip; while eyes painted in pastel hues of dusty rose, sage and lilac are a fitting match for a statement-making berry lip. And everything should be paired with the only cheek for spring: sparkling and sculpted.Blush Duo in Hungry Heart - Star Product of the collection

François Nars has always considered blush a critical beauty building block. It’s a belief passed down from his mother, who refers to it as the most important part of her daily makeup ritual. With that in mind, Nars created the Blush Duo, made with smooth, superfine micronized powders for supreme blendability, and infused with radiance reflecting pigments. Plus a bit of glitter, or as Nars calls it, “jewelry for the face.” I love that!

The double compact opens to reveal one highlighting and one sculpting shade, allowing you to literally shape your desired look. Hungry Heart, which pairs a gold-flecked light pink with a shimmering golden ivory, can be used alone—the pink blended into the apples of the cheeks, and the ivory as a highlighter along the cheekbone—or atop a richer shade of NARS blush for a seriously sculpted look.
