NARS makeup guide for New York Fashion Week Spring 2013

Compiled & Researched by Laura Medina

If you read down the list of NARS makeup guide, the telling trend for Spring 2013 is natural but healthy skin with a dewy complexion and bold eyebrows, just groom but don't pluck.

A nude lip with a pat-in glow of cream/gel/liquid blush then a dab on the lips is a very do-able look.

Fresh Dew of Youth...load up on the face cream and lotions. 

As for color, folks are hot damn for hot pink, strategically dabbed on the center lip.  Save the hot pink eye makeup for Halloween or a techno/goth mermaid gathering.

MAKEUP INSPIRATION: "[COTW Designers] Chris and Shane were referencing a character from a Godzilla film. They had this idea of 'monstrous beauty' that's raw, but still ladylike," said James Boehmer, NARS Global Director of Artistry. "So we created a look on the eyes that's a little lived-in. It's not as anime and perfect; it's destroyed."
