The brainchild of French Makeup Artist Francis Nars, the company was pioneered to encourage individuality and self-expression. What started as a collection of 12 lipsticks quickly turned into 600 different products in 50 categories including blusher, highlighter and foundations that’ll be found in every makeup gurus kitbag around the world. Below is our roundup of celebrity and cult favorites to get your hands on in time for summer.

Soft Matte Complete Concealer

This concealer is seriously multi-tasking. Its collagen-boosting, non-drying, and formulated with vitamins A, C, and E which will help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles whilst replenishing the skin. It will cover a multitude of sins from a long weekend and leave you with a soft matt finish. Selena Gomez and Emily Ratajkowski are major fans of this pot, and they always look flawless. We see no coincidence here.

The formula is very versatile, you can either create a sheer tinted moisturizer look or build it up for more medium coverage. Apply by warming the product up in your hands and apply with a finger to watch the product melt into your skin. Gigi and Bella Hadid’s makeup artist told W  that it’s the go-to for that ‘no makeup’ makeup look.

The products in the limelight are the Fall Colour Collection (above), the Bord De Plage Highlighting Bronzing Collection and the Powermatte Lip Pigment (below). Inspired by rebellion and self-expression from the Rock and Roll era, the campaign showcases effortlessness that is both bold and sultry from both models.

Take a look at some of the behind the scenes images…

“The model brings the product to life and gives it and identity, so matching the right model with a product is very important. I love Bella. She has a very strong and powerful look.” – François Nars, Founder and Creative Director.

To recreate the campaign look, prep the skin with the Pore and Shine Control Primer. Using your fingers, apply Punjab Velvet Matte Foundation Stick to the center of the face and blend outwards. Dab and blend Custard Radiant Creamy Concealer under the eyes. Using the #10 Powder Brush, set complexion with Light Reflecting Loose Setting Powder.

To add dimension, use the #21 Contour Brush to sweep the dark side of Olympia Contour Blush onto the hollows of the cheekbones. For a soft flush, apply Sex Appeal Blush on the apples of the cheeks using the Yachiyo Kabuki Brush. Using your fingertips, apply Nepal Single Eyeshadow across the eyelid and blend up toward the crease. Using the #42 Blending Eyeshadow Brush, lightly trace the crease of the eyes to add dimension. Trace the upper lash line with Last Frontier Velvet Eyeliner. Using the #45 Smudge Brush, apply Last Frontier to the bottom lash line and blend outward.

Apply two coats of Black Moon Audacious Mascara to the top and bottom lashes. Define the brow using the #48 Brow Defining Brush and sweep strokes of Bali Single Eyeshadow into the brow. Apply Get It On Powermatte Lip Pigment directly to the center of the lips, starting at the cupids bow and following the lip line to fill in the rest of the lips.
