NARS Fall 2010 Makeup
August 12, 2010 Inspired by style icon Daphne Guinness, the NARS Fall 2010 collection is filled with bright, hypnotic colors and dramatic futuristic touches. Think snow-white complexions, violet eyes and Clara Bow lips.
The two new Duo Eyeshadows are a great buy if you don't already own any smoky and neutral colors. The elegant Tzarine is a bold steel grey that's paired with a silvery gold platinum, while the intense Rajasthan contains cool grey charcoal and metallic almond shimmer. Both duos are a dream to work with but are a bit similar - it all depends on the shade intensity that you want.
If those duos are not enough color for ya, the Palladium Soft Touch Shadow Pencil will certainly let you shine on the dance floor. This is so smooth and easy to use - smear it on for an intense sparkling turquoise lid or use it as an eyeliner accent. You can also layer it with other eyeshadows for an interesting effect.
The juicy-looking Strawberry Fields Lip Gloss is a deep bright pink, so a couple swabs are quite enough. The wet lip texture isn't too sticky and the full coverage is reminiscent of a creamy lipstick formula. This gloss color will be the key lip color to get through the holiday parties.
NARS also launched two new Artist Palettes. Their Beautiful Life Lip and Cheek kit contains 4 lipstick shades and 2 popular Multiples (Copacabana & Orgasm). The Only You Eye and Cheek palette has 4 eyeshadows and 2 blushes (Hungry Heart I & Orgasm). These limited edition combos are conveniently housed in a zippered case, so you can easily doll yourself up at work.

Wow, that is some serious shadow pencil. I bet a little goes a long way, too. The color definitely will make your peepers pop.
Oh yeah, a lil' bit goes a looong way. I like to either line it delicately around the outer eyelid or blend into a grey shadow for a blue-grey metallic effect.
I got a makeover with this collection yesterday. I absolutely adore the pencil. It's sooooooo pretty! And those glosses are fabulous. I love how pigmented they are.
Super Sonja - I can't wait to see your video! :D
I was worried this color would be way too bright but it's just lovely.
