Nars Pure Matte Lipstick Review and Swatches

September 1, 2010 by admin  
Filed under 2010, Nars, Swatches

Q & A WITH FRANÇOIS NARS

What is the best way to wear a matte lip?
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.

How do I find the perfect lip color?
There are no rules when it comes to finding the “right” shade of lip color. Go with
what catches your eye! It’s like wearing jewelry or an amazing pair of shoes. I
love when women have fun with color and experiment.

How can I make my lips stand out more and make them look fuller?
Wear a bold lip!!!! Applying a bit of gloss or shimmer to the center of the mouth
will make the lips seem fuller and more three-dimensional. You can give the lips
a fuller shape with lip liner, but make sure to blend so there is no obvious line
around the lip.

How often should women reapply lipstick?
Every woman wears lipstick differently, so frequency will vary. Don’t
apply lipstick too thick. The more you have on, the heavier it looks
and the faster it will wear off. When creating Pure Matte, I wanted a
formula that was long-wearing but also nourishing, so women don’t have to
reapply so frequently!

NARS SS2010 Fashion Week Trend Report- Marc Jacobs

September 16, 2009 by Pursebuzz  
Filed under Brands, Nars

SHOW: Marc Jacobs
LEAD ARTIST: François Nars, Founder and Creative Director of
NARS Cosmetics
TREND: Theatrical Makeup

INSPIRATION: The look of the Marc Jacobs collection was inspired by the contemporary dancer, Martha Graham: Old-fashioned and theatrical but graceful and precise. At the same time, however, there was a darker side that was shone through: a quality of gothic romance. Ballerinas with a sense of mystery- as if part of them, along with some of their makeup, had been left behind on stage.

LOOK: Left-over stage makeup. The models weren’t meant to have perfect makeup- rather, they were meant to encompass a “just came off-stage” effect. “Dancers in theater and opera always have white faces, pointed lips and an eye that is drawn outward, not upward-it’s very theatrical, very ballet,” said François Nars. He stressed the importance of the eye for this look, noting that “the shape of the eyeliner is important- it should open the eyes, especially underneath. The slashes of white is something they used to do in the 70s- it brings a 3-dimensional feeling to the makeup.”

Below are some key products and steps for recreating the look:

Face:
·         Blend NARS Siberia Sheer Matte foundation onto the face
·         Set with NARS Snow Loose Powder for a white, pirouette-clown look
·         Subtly contour and highlight, if necessary, with NARS Hungry Heart Blush Duo

Eyes:

·           Dust the white shimmer from the left side of NARS Pandora Duo Eyeshadow on the eyelid

·           Use NARS D.Gorgeous Single Eyeshadow (NEW for Spring 2010) in the crease

Using the NARS Eyeliner Stylo in Nuits Blanches on the top and bottom lids, follow the shape of the eye, elongating it just past the outer corners but keeping the line straight and out, never moving upwards.  (Can we fix the bullet I can’t get the same one to work?)

·           Use NARS Black Moon Eyeliner Pencil to enhance the eye

·           After applying two sets of false eyelashes, apply one coat of NARS Larger Than Life Lengthening Mascara followed by one coat of NARS Larger Than Life Volumizing Mascara

Lips:

·           Apply NARS Pop Life Velvet Matte Lip Pencil (NEW for Holiday 2009) to upper and lower lips, adding an extra layer on the top lip. Dab your finger along the lower lip to lightly fade the color so that the top lip is darker.
