NARS Spring 2009

Inspired by 1970s pastels, pinks, and berry shades, NARS has a bold eyeshadow for their Spring '09 collection. The Grenadines shade, a matte garnet, is worn by Guinevere van Seenus for their ad campaign.

To get her look: NARS makeup artist Ayako layered Hungry Heart Blush Duo (on apple of cheeks) over the Multiple in Orgasm. then used a combination of shadows for the eye: Single Eyeshadow in Grenadines over the entire lid and up to the inner corner of the brow then smudged under the lower lash line, and Single Eyeshadow in Egea in the crease. Finally she filled in her pout with Lipstick in Shrinagar, and dabbed some Lip Gloss in Sweet Revenge to the middle of the lip for added shine.

They've also launched two new must-haves - the Blush Duo and Duo Concealer. The blush compact has a highlighting and one sculpting shade (Hungry Heart - Iridescent gold ivory & pink sand). The crease-resistant concealer duo comes in Custard/Ginger (for light to medium complexions) and Praline/Toffee (for medium to dark).
