NARS Cosmetics introduces its Pure Matte Lipstick Collection tomorrow, September 1st. The campaign features Canadian model Heather Marks and is photographed by the Creative Director and Founder- Francois Nars. Under his direction, makeup artist Diane Kendal created a makeup look that emphasized a bold and matte lip. The end result…audacious, sultry and sophisticated.
“A matte lip is very modern, whether nude or deeply pigmented. Try a color close to your skin tone for a universally flattering look. Pair darker hues with a fresh complexion and little makeup. But, always choose a formula that has hydrating ingredients to condition lips.” -François Nars, Founder & Creative Director of NARS Cosmetics

Oh la la! I love these nail color shades from Chanel Les Khakis de Chanel Nail Polish Collection. In celebration of Fashion’s Night Out, which is coming next month, the Global Director of Chanel, Peter Philips has a created a collection of three Les Vernis Nail Colours. Very hot and sophisticated shades for fall.

The three shades are:
- Khaki Vert
- Khaki Brun
- Khaki Rose
The colors give off a vintage-military feel which sorta reminds me of J.Crew’s Fall 2010 collection. The nail colours retails for $25 each and will be available September 10th!
