The NARS Summer 2010 Campaign was created and photographed by NARS Founder and Creative Director François Nars. François drawn the inspiration from portrayal of Sèverine in the movie Belle de Jour when he created this look on his dear friend Amber Valletta.
He is once again motivated by the love for the Catherine Deneuve’s character and described it as “beautiful and elegant. Her look is effortless-she has an incredible inner sophistication,” says François.
François began by applying NARS Makeup Primer to Amber’s face, followed by NARS Fiji Sheer Matte Foundation. For a fresh finish he set it with NARS Eden Loose Powder. NARS Orgasm Illuminator was applied to her cheeks, forehead and center of the chin to give her skin a subtle radiance.
For a natural flush, François started with NARS Enchanted Cream Blush on the cheeks, followed with NARS Orgasm Blush blended toward the temples to further highlight the complexion.
On her eyes, he applied the iridescent ocean-blue shade of NARS Burn It Blue Duo Cream Eyeshadow to the eyelid, blending upwards toward the base of the brow bone. Next, François swept the left side of NARS Pandora Duo Eyeshadow across the lid, and brushed the rich teal shade of NARS Cleo Duo Eyeshadow into the crease.
Eyebrows were defined with NARS Blondie Single Eyeshadow, using the NARS Brow Shader. He lined the eyes with NARS Mambo Eyeliner Pencil followed by NARS Nuits Blanches Eyeliner Stylo creating a full lash line. NARS Larger Than Life Lengthening Mascara finished the look.
Lastly, he prepared the lips with NARS Angélique Pure Sheer SPF Lip Treatment and topped them off with NARS Love Devotion Lipstick.
