Ok, this is a wrap-up for the newest and latest makeup and skincare from NARS, making their debut on the catwalks of Paris and Manhattan during Paris Fashion Week then New York Fashion Week.
Expect half of the skincare and makeup arriving in stores in the next upcoming Fall of this year. Fashion week for makeup brands is nothing more than a trial run to see how their products stand up under the glare and the heat of bright lights on all sorts of complexions that are running from one show to another in extreme climate.., mostly snowing and dry outside to hot and dry inside.
These are the line-ups for what current and hotly anticipated Fall/Winter 2013 looks, techniques, and items from NARS' top lieutenants on the front of Fall/Winter 2013 Fashion.
Usually, it is the makeup that leads the march into clothes and the skincare that provide the back up for the complete look. Expect to see NARS' Radiant Creamy Concealer, debuting today in the good ole United States of America then on March First everywhere else. It is was used in the majority of shows. Even this scribe has tried of dab of the Radiant Creamy Concealer on sun spots and pimples. Verdict? Thick and opaque to cover the spots like the greasier cousin but feels airy and matte over pimples as its lighter cousin. How lucky are we?!
According to Paris and New York fashion and makeup editors, one of the hottest makeup is Radiant Creamy Concealer available in ten shades. This new complexion product is designed to be buildable, blendable, and
provides skincare benefits with long-lasting results. It was also
designed to perfectly complement our Pure Radiant Tinted Moisturizer and
Foundations. The Radiant Creamy Concealer line will be available www.narscosmetics.com and at NARS flagship boutiques on February 20 and everywhere else on March 1.
The strongest makeup trend from NARS? Luminious skin dripping in dewy-ness, a well-hydrated but clean skin with a glossy slick of clear or caramel/peach lip gloss.
A slew of new NARS makeup that made their debut on the catwalks then will hit the shelves pretty soon are: Light Reflecting Setting Powder - Pressed (New for Spring 2013!), Namibia Single Eyeshadow (New for Fall 2013) Available: US - July 15 2013 / Global - August 1 2013,

LEAD ARTIST: James Boehmer, NARS Director of Global Artistry,
LOOK: "The makeup complements the collection by adding a new element. You see the pearl on their cheeks, and an angular line that almost makes the look hard and not so feminine, like a Teddy girl in the UK after World War II. I also wanted to balance Chris and Shane’s inspiration of artificiality, and candy, by creating a look that had a combination of matte and pearl but no real sense of contour, depth or color.”

James Boehmer, NARS Director of Global Artistry,
LOOK:
"The collection is baroque with a punk edge, so we wanted the makeup to
have that same feeling," says Boehmer. "The eyeliner is a reference to a
classic eyeline, but with a punk spirit, so it’s not perfect, not
delicate. The skin is very luminous; we talked about the girls looking
slightly haunted, but in a pretty way."

Diane Kendal for NARS Cosmetics,
LOOK: "Thakoon's winter collection is inspired by summer," said Kendal. "So it was a combination of rich fabrics with short-sleeved dresses and heavy stoles with dragonflies. We wanted to reflect that in the makeup, so we did a very dark midnight blue shadow, but to get that summer feel we added glitter on top. It created the perfect juxtaposition between winter and summer."

Jason Hoffman, NARS Training Executive,
"Reserved 1950s glamour, re-thought for a modern generation"
LOOK: "The reference for the beauty look was Lady Mary from Downton Abbey.
It's a decadent 1920's, lived in feel that's all about the eyebrow. The
skin we kept a natural finish to make the brows feel less costume-y."
