NARS Summer 2009 Makeup Collection

As NARS turns fifteen this year, the brand’s commitment to creating products that defy convention remains unwavering. The NARS woman has never been content to fade into the background, and this summer is no exception.

“The look for the Summer 2009 collection is sophisticated, but colorful,” says François Nars, Founder and Creative Director of NARS Cosmetics.

Whether your vision of perfect summer conjures up images of Morocco’s kaleidoscopic bazaars, the pristine Art Deco structures of Ocean Drive or the endless white sand beaches and cerulean waters of a Caribbean island, this season’s vivid yet versatile color palette is the perfect complement.

GET THE LOOK: For the Summer 2009 campaign, Ayako, International Makeup Director for NARS, wanted to fashion a look for model Guinevere van Seenus that was arresting yet approachable. To create a seamless foundation on which she could build her beauty vision-a harmony of muted tones punctuated by a shot of
vivid blue-Ayako first prepped Guinevere’s face with NARS Makeup Primer, followed by Firming Foundation in Siberia and a sprinkle of Loose Powder in Snow for a high-definition finish.

Usually, Marta Walsh, the sweet beauty addict behind the Talkingmakeup.com network of sites, does all the interviewing. In fact, two of her blogs, beautyinterviews.com and styleinterviews.com, are solely dedicated to that very thing. But I got this lady (pictured here with hair wizard Edward Tricomi) to agree to flip the tables here in Blogging-Babe-land and do some spillin’ of her own. Keep reading to find out all about her, her makeup tips and the one product she thinks every woman should own.

TGBD: Tell me how you got into makeup? Was it something you took to right away in your pre-teen years or did the love come later?
Marta: My love for makeup began in my early teens. My classmates use to wear black eyeliner and a lipgloss. I wasn’t allowed any makeup until I was 16, so I used to cheat now and then borrowing my big sister’s eyeliner and pretend I’m wearing real lip gloss with ChapStick. Growing up in Israel we didn’t have the variety of brands we have now, a lipstick from Revlon meant real luxury to me. Everything changed when I moved to New York City in my later teens, I felt like a kid in a candy shop. My obsession with trying every makeup and skincare brand just got bigger.

To create a flawless complexion, Vanessa used both Lancôme Effacernes concealer and Armani Lasting Silk UV SPF 20 Foundation.
