Favorites from the NARS Andy Warhol Collection

Belle Belle Beauty's Favorites from the NARS Andy Warhol Collection

I can’t really remember a collection being met with such fanfare as the NARS Andy Warhol collection. The iconic imagery makes for some pretty darn cool gifts, but I wasn’t too sure how wearable the actual products are. Alas, I found some great gems for those who prefer a more subtle, neutral look.

NARS ‘Andy Warhol’ Self Portrait Eyeshadow Palette Self Portrait 2 is straight forward black, ivory and silver. A wash of silver makes for a pretty, festive lid, while black makes a great liner. I have been using the ivory in the corners of my eyes to illuminate. Note: the black pigment on his face is a thin layer. Black will only remain in the background on the left.

NARS ‘Any Warhol’ Soft Touch Shadow Pencil in Silver Factory is slightly edgier. When I wear a glitter/sparkly eye, I usually reach for gold. This silver is such a flattering alternative – I think I am hooked. The smooth pencil glides easily on the delicate eye. The creamy formula blends nicely. And I love using this as a festive primer and letting just a bit of metallic peek through.

NARS ‘Andy Warhol’ Larger Than Life Lip Gloss in Viva already has a special place in my heart. I cannot believe I haven’t tried the Larger Than Life Lip Gloss. The finish is ultra shiny, but it doesn’t feel thick. It hydrates my poor dry lips. And has great staying power for a gloss. The shorter brush makes for a little extra work, but I like the precision it offers. Note: this actually looks like a rosy nude on – not sure why it looks so bright in both pictures.

NARS’ Andy Warhol collection

Two of my favorite worlds are colliding: art and makeup. Good things are bound to happen. WWD reports Nars will debut two makeup collections that channel Warhol’s iconic art. Francios Nars and Andy Warhol, both forward-thinking pioneers in their art, kind of remind me of each other – both epitomizing modernity.

The two collections will reflect his pop art phase and Factory phase. The crown jewel of the Pop collection is the Debbie Harry Cheek and Eye Palette ($65) is an ode to Warhol’s muse. The Factory collection features the Edie set, a film canister containing Film Star pure matte lipstick, Edie eyeshadow, Carpates eyeliner stylo and more. Warhol quotes are emblazoned on the compacts containing eyeshadows pressed into shapes of flowers.

The Debbie Harry palette and entire Pop collection will be available at Sephora on October 1st. The Factory collection will be in department stores on November 1st.
