I made a trip to Sephora in the new J.C. Penney's inside the Manhattan Mall to preview the NARS products before purchasing them online. It's very hard to tell true colors and textures just by viewing images on a computer. As a Makeup Artist I need to see, touch and smell products before purchasing them so I avoid buyers regret or don't buy duplicate products. (I can't tell you how many times I've brought products that were almost identical.)
As part of my makeup look I used the following products from NARS Fall 2009 collection "Brumes Duo Eyeshadow", "Fast Ride" Lipstick, and "Tokaïdo Express" Nail Polish. I also used some standard products from the NARS line to complete my Fall Beauty Makeup Look:
"Montenegro" Cream Blush ($25) - Mahogany
"Palm Beach" Multiple ($37) - Rich Bronze
"Black Moon" Eyeliner Pencil ($20) - Dense Black
"New Orleans" Firming Foundation ($50) - for medium to dark complexions with yellow undertones
I also tried NARS Larger Than Life Volumizing Mascara in "Black" ($25) * Sephora Exclusive!!!
Here's my finished Fall Makeup Look....
