There's a freshness and ease to the look with a focus on pinched cheeks, lips and a feathery brow. Some of the girls also have a pink, red-stain on their lips to create a bitten effect. There is something a bit 70's girl next door about the look but in a barely there sort of way.” -James Boehmer for NARS Cosmetics FACE:  NARSskin Aqua Gel Luminous Oil-Free Moisturizer ,  NARSskin Total Replenishing Eye Cream , Soft Matte Complete Concealer (New for Spring 2017, for now try  Radiant Creamy Concealer ),  Soft Velvet Loose Powder CHEEKS: Bumpy Ride Blush (New for Spring 2017, for now try  Orgasm Blush ) EYES: Bumpy Ride Blush (New for Spring 2017, for now try  Orgasm Blush ) BROWS:  Matte Eyeshadow  (shades Blondi, Bali, Coconut Grove and Bengali depending on hair color),  Oural Brow Gel LIPS (red): Famous Red Velvet Matte Lip Pencil (New for Spring 2017, for now try ...

NYC CREATURES OF THE WIND CREATURES OF THE WIND-Lead make-up artist- Mark Carrasquillo I was inspired by a young Hispanic girl in New York. She's really confident and likes herself - she doesn't entertain all the makeup tricks "contour, foundation & powder” she goes straight for a strong lip. This is a sophisticated update on the heavily-lined lip from the 90’s. I played with the color and application on the lips, kept the rest of the face clean and bare, and brushed gloss through her brows to keep it young. It’s beauty with attitude.” —Mark Carrasquillo for NARS Cosmetics FACE:  NARSskin Multi-Action Toner ,  NARSskin Luminous Moisture Cream , NARSskin Total Replenishing Eye Cream ,  Radiant Creamy Concealer BROWS:  Triple X Lip Gloss LIPS:  Belle Mare Velvet Lip Liner ,  Mambo Eyeliner ,  Bette Audacious Lipstick , Ingrid Audacious Lipstick ,  Charlotte Audacious Lipstick  ,  Train Bleu Velve...

  SHOW : Opening Ceremony SS‘16   LEAD ARTIST:  James Boehmer, NARS Director of Global Artistry LOOK: “The collection was inspired by the unfinished projects of the architect Frank Lloyd Wright so it has a lot of graphic elements - sharp tailoring and cutouts with architectural edges. There is also this botanical element to the presentation, so we talked about the idea of hothouse flowers, a botanical green house with moisture and condensation on the skin. The look is really controlled, beautiful sweat - nude, muted lip with very glossy skin.”     FACE NARSskin Luminous Moisture Cream NARSskin Total Replenishing Eye Cream Pure Radiant Tinted Moisturizer Radiant Creamy Concealer Triple X Lip Gloss  (on the bridge of the nose, cupid’s bow and high points of cheekbones)   CHEEKS Left side of  Jubilation Dual-Intensity Blush   EYES Triple X Lip Gloss  (on eyelids)   LIPS ...

  LEAD ARTIST:  James Boehmer, NARS Director of Global Artistry   LOOK:  “The collection this season was inspired by dance and choreography, so you see a lot of movement in the fabrics and silhouettes. There was a strong element of geometry and asymmetry that we wanted to play against in the makeup look - we didn't want anything decidedly "graphic" in the makeup, especially the eye. A defined, natural, slightly glossed masculine brow seemed to inform the character perfectly. We defined the eye itself with a lot of mascara, and finished with a glossy lid. Skin was kept clean and bare, with just a subtle highlight in the outer edges of the face to create dimension. It's almost like a dancer's makeup stripped down to its barest elements."     FACE NARSskin Aqua Gel Luminous Oil-Free Moisturizer NARSskin Total Replenishing Eye Cream Pure Radiant Tinted Moisturizer Soft Velvet Loose Powder   BROWS    ...

  LEAD ARTIST:  James Boehmer,  NARS  Director of Global Artistry   LOOK:  "The collection is inspired by "Americana"- a mash up of the 1920's, 60's and 70's - more specifically the 1970's looking at the 1920's. The silhouettes reference psychedelic and progressive rock, with icons such as Anjelica Huston and Sissy Spacek informing the makeup look.   Clean, perfected matte skin with no shine. Loads of mascara was applied like it would have looked in this era - pasty, a bit dry, and deliberate - applied only to the outer half of the top and bottom lashes. Eyelids were left their natural color and texture to contrast the rest of the face. A brushed up glossy brow finishes the look."     FACE    All Day Luminous Weightless Foundation Soft Velvet Loose Powder Radiant Creamy Concealer   EYES      Audacious Mascara  (New for Fall 2015, for now try  Larger ...
