INTRODUCING NARS HOLIDAY GIFTING!

INTRODUCING MODERN KABUKI HOLIDAY 2011 GIFTING!

 

For Holiday 2011, NARS introduces Modern Kabuki, a collection of specially designed gifts for the ardent makeup aficionado, inspired by François Nars’ travels throughout Japan, his deep interest in Japanese culture, and his fascination with Kabuki makeup. The collection captures the exquisite artistry of Japan's Kabuki theater. Every detail is a vibrant, modern, iconic interpretation of the centuries-old dramatic form.

 

HANAMICHI KABUKI-INSPIRED EYESHADOW PALETTE

Japanese for “flower path,” this Kabuki theater walkway that extends into the audience was the inspiration for this eyeshadow palette, featuring a Kabuki-themed design and accompanied by a mini Kabuki Eye Brush.  The colors are evocative of shades found in Kabuki theater- an icy white with flowers in rich shimmering deep rose and gold and matte black.
