“The look started with a picture that Marc had of Christy Turlington with really fresh skin and rosy cheeks,” said François Nars, Founder & Creative Director of NARS Cosmetics. “Marc wanted ‘icy cold cheeks’ and so the blush is drawn down in such a way that’s unusual…unusual, but decadent. Like a Renaissance painting.”

We appreciate enthusiasm for new releases but ask readers to please hold questions regarding if/when a review will be posted as we can't commit to or guarantee product reviews. We don't want to set expectations and then disappoint readers as even products that are swatched don't always end up being reviewed due to time constraints and changes in priorities! Thank you for understanding!

Cool (in French, cool means I’m happy) Christine, you found Nars’s face chart for Marc Jacobs NYFW 2011. Thank you so much. As for the blush applied as in it is for this défilée, I have already done it and it’s nice, if, and I say if, the MU is natural. If it’s too much, except if you’re planning to be clown, just skip it. Merci Christine for this face chart once again (encore)….
