Many a fashion expert will tell you this, if you can't afford or get the dress, at least...you can get the matching lipsticks.
For those who want a fast fix, NARS just launched a new hybrid of lipstick meets lip liner in an innovative satin texture and formula that glides high-impact color on the lips with light but subtle gloss of a feel.
There's more to his Satin Lip Pencils. They're rich in skin-pampering Vitamin E and Hyaluronic Acid as they are in pigment and opaque glaze.
Rose-Gold is the sleeper color underneath the Color of the Year, Emerald (more on this later as St. Paddy's Day approaches).
NARS' current Spring Collection is rich on rose-gold, very wearable pink flush with the soft flash of gold to push the rose shade forward.
Here's the list and the video in how to get this fierce feminine look...
COMPLEXION/FACE
- Prepare the skin with the Pore Refining Primer to create a smooth canvas for beautiful makeup application.
- Create an even, luminous soft-matte complexion with Sheer Matte Foundation (Stella is wearing shade Siberia). Warm the foundation in the palm of the hand and apply with fingers to the center of the face, blending outward.
- Get a velvety luminous glow by highlighting the complexion with Luxor Multiple. Blend with fingers into the hollow of cheeks and outward towards the temples.
- Subtly define the cheeks with Seduction blush by sweeping the Yachiyo Brush upward and outward along cheeks.
- Set the look by sweeping Light Reflecting Setting Powder all over the face with the Loose Powder Brush for a luminous soft matte finish.
EYES
- Prepare the eyelid with Smudgeproof Eyeshadow Base. Begin by applying with the applicator then smooth with finger to a fresh finish.
- Using the Eyeshadow Brush, sweep Abyssinia Single Eyeshadow all over the eyelid and the bridge of the eye.
- Create depth and dimension by applying the bright pink shade of Bouthan Duo Eyeshadow into the crease of the eye with an Eye Contour Brush.
- Use the Large Dome Eye Brush to sweep Himalayas Single Eyeshadow across the lid, along lower lashline and corner of the eye.
- Define the eye with Carpates Eyeliner Stylo using the side of the tip to draw as close to the lashline as possible.
- Finish with two coats of Larger Than Life Volumizing Mascara— move brush side to side for smooth, separated lashes.
- Line and fill lips with Yu Satin Lip Pencil for a bold, statement making lip.

LEAD ARTIST: Val Garland using NARS Cosmetics at Roland Mouret during Paris Fashion Week...
LOOK:
"This look is all about the eyes, with a really gorgeous side profile
shape. The eyelid is traced with black and clean in the middle, but not
too perfect - there's a greyness to keep it modern. It is literally the
way a girl would wear her makeup now to go out, with the lip color
dabbed on but not perfectly applied - it's cooler that way."
