The NARS x Andy Warhol is without a doubt one of the most awaited new makeup releases to come. Browse through the fabulous new products to be released and find out more about this comprehensive two part collection.
Ever since the news that cosmetic giant NARS will team up with the Andy Warhol foundation emerged, the collection became one of the most awaited ones of the new season. It's always interesting to see what these collaborations bring, particularly when icons who have had such a influence are being represented. For makeup guru François Nars, this particular collection was extremely important given the strong influence the artist had on him.
The makeup guru revealed the main ideas that have shaped the choices for the makeup products to WWD: "Even more than 20 years after his death, Andy continues to be one of the most influential figures in both contemporary art and pop culture. Andy said, ‘If everybody’s not a beauty, then nobody is.’ This is the same sentiment I wanted to bring to life with NARS — a forward-thinking attitude toward beauty, and the encouragement to inspire self-expression, creativity, and artistry in the women who wear it. It seemed like a natural fit to create a collection that Andy himself might have a hand in if he were alive today.”
With such strong emotional associations, the fact that the new collection is fairly comprehensive is no surprise. What might surprise makeup fans, however is that the collection will be released in two parts. The first set of options will be available at Sephora starting with October 1st while the holiday offerings will debut at department and specialty stores starting with November 1st.
