NARS Pure Matte Lipstick

NARS Cosmetics introducing Pure Matte Lipstick. “A matte lip is very modern, whether nude or deeply pigmented. Try a color close to your skin tone for a universally flattering look. Pair darker hues with a fresh complexion and little makeup. But, always choose a formula that has hydrating ingredients to condition lips.” –François Nars, Founder & Creative Director of NARS Cosmetics

Before its release there was a TON of buzz over NARS Pure Matte Lipstick- it was used as a staple backstage at New York Fashion Week and has graced the faces of celebrities all over the red carpet (see the most recent coverage from the Emmys here) !

The Makeup Look & Inspiration: “My inspiration was the era of the 60’s. I thought of Raquel Welch and Bridget Bardot: the winged eye, the nude lip. The dress is so classic, so we wanted to be adventurous with her eyes– giving a dash of color with the new Palladium Soft Touch Shadow Pencil – and kept the lip nude with Tashkent Pure Matte!”–Melanie Inglessis for NARS Cosmetics

NARS Q&A With Daphne Guinness

Celebrity Inspired Makeup. NARS Q&A With Daphne Guinness!

When it comes to describing fashionista Daphne Guinness, the passion of Founder & Creative Director François Nars knows no boundaries. And when it came to designing and photographing this futuristic makeup look for Fall 2010, François created a look worthy of his leading lady. It was only fitting that Nars chose to name an eyeshadow after his muse, Daphne, a color that is as bold and beautiful as the woman for whom it was named. To magnify the arresting impact of the magnificent Ms. Guinness, Nars designed and photographed her in a kaleidoscope of mirrors, creating a virtual funhouse of reflective images.

Their makeup looks dirty and worn out as if it has been on all night but still translates beautifully on the runway.”
