New! The Fall 2011 Collection. The Campaign was designed and photographed by NARS Founder and Creative Director François Nars. Under his supervision, makeup artist Diane Kendal created the season’s look on model Mariacarla Boscono. The Italian beauty was chosen for her sophistication and chameleon-like ability to become the character she is made up to portray.
Face:
- Diane began by creating an immaculate complexion, applying Siberia Sheer Matte Foundation to the center of the face with her fingertips, blending outward.
- The look was set with Snow Loose Powder.
- To add contour to the cheeks, she brushed Oasis Blush just below the cheekbone and blended the color toward the temple.
Eyes:
- Mariacarla’s eyelids were prepped with PRO-PRIME Smudge Proof Eyeshadow Base, blending with a fingertip for a fresh finish.
- Diane then applied Outremer Single Eyeshadow to the lid, layering the color to build intensity. To create a winged effect, she extended the color to the inner corner of the eye and up along the outer corner toward the brow bone.
- Next, she swept the sheer white side of Pandora Duo Eyeshadow on the brow bone, blending it softly into the bold blue hue.
- She lined the upper lash line with Rue Saint-Honoré Larger Than Life Long-Wear Eyeliner Pencil and the lower lash line with Rue Bonaparte Larger Than Life Long-Wear Eyeliner Pencil to open the eyes.
- The silvery taupe shade of Grand Palais Duo Eyeshadow was blended along the lower lash line, extending the color into the inner corner of the eye.
- Brows were defined with Bali Single Eyeshadow.
- Lashes were curled and finished with two coats of Larger Than Life Volumizing Mascara.
Lips:
- Lastly, Diane lined and filled the lips with Fantasia Lipliner Pencil—blending with a finger to soften the color—followed by Striptease Lip Gloss topped with Pago Pago Lipstick.
