My favorite part of this collection is the new Forest Shimmer Ink Long-Wear Gel Eyeliner and the Bash Metallic Eye Shadow. The shimmery, earthy shades are a perfect transition to fall makeup.

NARS Fall 2009 Makeup Collection

nars fall 2009

Fall is my favorite favorite FAVORITE time of year, especially when I have amazing fall makeup collections to look forward to.

NARS Fall 2009 Collection is everything I want the season to be. Celebrating its 15th Anniversary, NARS Fall 2009 Collection is rich and bold, shimmery and seductive and has the versatility to be sexy yet ultra-elegant.

In this collection you’ll find:

NARS Fast Ride Lipstick – $24

This seemingly dark purple may intimidate, but swipe it across the lips and its true shade is revealed: a sheer mulberry. A color that falls somewhere between an intense plum wine stain, and a moody, deep violet.

NARS Tokaido Express – $16

This new hue is a cult classic in the making. Named after Japan’s most heavily frequented high-speed rail route, this lacquer is an opulent blackened amethyst doused with ultra-fine gold dust particles.

NARS Silk Road Duo Eyeshadow- $32

This new shade mirrors the hues from traditional damask fabrics. Classic meets edgy in this new duo — an icy pink is paired with a warm rose gold with golden flecks.

NARS Brumes Duo Eyeshadow- $32

These new hues perfectly capture the moody shades of a cool twilight sky. Brumes pairs a velvety matte charcoal with a sparkling, blue state for a smoky eye that is both confident and serene.

NARS Indian Summer Duo Eyeshadow- $32

A typical Indian summer comes as a surprise, balmy sunshine meets brisk fall. Swipe the summery, frosted champagne shimmer up to the brow, and line the upper lid with the autumnal deep, matte mustard for a striking look, appropriate for every season.

NARS Mekong Single Eyeshadow- $22

This is the perfect addition to the NARS woman’s adventurous palette. The intense, blackened espresso hue scattered with rose gold is a study in contrasts. Applied liberty across the lid it exudes a sexy attitude, or applied lightly, a simple, fashion-forward sophistication.

NARS FAll 2009 Makeup Collection is currently available online at NARScosmetics.com.
