I am so excited for these new additions to the NARS family - the Matte Multiple, Contour Blush, plus an array of amazing quality brushes. As a fan of NARS for many years, I've been using their infamous blushes and illuminators for quite a while and overall, the products have always been a good investment
Just in time for its 20th year anniversary, NARS introduces the new multi-use Matte Multiple (blushes & bronzers) - the product can be used wet or dry for a versatile cheek or lip application. Plus, it comes in gorgeous colours and shades!
Available in seven shades from ginger pink to golden bronze, the Matte Multiple features a creamy, lightweight formula that delivers buildable, long-lasting, hydrating colour for lips and cheeks. This innovative formula can be applied dry for a soft yet vibrant matte effect or wet for a rich and vivid finish that melts into skin.
Products Include:
ANGUILLA, Ginger pink
EXUMAS, Pink apricot
SIAM, Poppy red
LAOS, Rose coral
ALTAI, Rose bronze
VIENTIANE, Copper bronze
CAPPADOCE, Golden bronze
Price: $46
Available April 14th at select NARS retailers (including Sephora, Hudson’s Bay, Holt Renfrew and MURALE) and www.narscosmetics.ca
But that's not all...NARS also launched Contour Blushes, the ultimate essential in makeup artistry to create natural-looking definition with a luminous finish.
Now available at select NARS retailers (including Sephora, Hudson’s Bay, Holt Renfrew and Murale) and www.narscosmetics.ca - The beautifully balanced duos feature a lighter shade to illuminate the highpoints of the face and a deeper shade to enhance definition. Ultra-smooth, lightweight texture lends itself to a luminous finish and the specially designed contouring formula adds visual depth and dimension in a single swipe.
To create the perfect contour on cheeks, apply the deeper shade of the Contour Blush to the hollows of the cheeks and along the hairline; sweep the light shade across the cheekbones toward the temples to soften and highlight. Finish the look with a pop of your favorite blush shade on the apples of the cheek.
Products Include:
OLYMPIA, Ivory/Rose
PALOMA, Pink beige/Deep rose
GIENAH, Honey/Amber
Price: $46
Last but not least, NARS also launches a comprehensive 16 piece Artistry Brushes collection featuring an exquisite design conceived by Founder and Creative Director François Nars and Fabien Baron, of New York design firm Baron & Baron.
Each brush is designed with the finest quality hairs and delicately weighted to provide the necessary balance for a professional and precise makeup application. The custom brush and packaging feature the iconic matte black finish with sharp debossed logo and signature pop of red.
