With new products for beauty care and makeup being launched every season by various reputed brands, it may become quite tricky a situation for you when it comes to choosing one out of them for yourself. For this reason, you need to check out the products even before the season is on. To facilitate the same, brands plan much ahead and disclose their products way ahead of launching them in the consumer market. NARS has already unveiled its 2012 Spring makeup collection that the brand is going to release in the market in Feb, 2012. Here’s a sneak peek into what’s on offer in NARS Spring 2012 makeup collection.
NARS Spring 2012 makeup collection
NARS range of makeup collection for Spring 2012 may surprise the audience considerably. From the details and pictures released by the brand, what can be concluded is that the brand has set out to break a number of rules while deciding on this range of cosmetics. The colors in the collection hardly match or co-ordinate with one another. This range is all about mismatching colors and yet what is remarkably noticing in this range is the stunning effect that these colors or the entire range aims to (and would succeed to) create.
Following set rules can lead to repetitiveness and similar styles whereas breaking them can give birth to more and better creative outputs. Similar thinking must have inspired NARS’s owner and makeup director Francois Nars, who revealed, “I never pay attention to rules like, “No matte makeup in warm weather”. Matte is perfectly appropriate for spring, specially in a strong berry shade. In fact, it’s the perfect transitional color and texture to bridge winter and summer.”
This line of makeup collection from NARS consists of a rainbow of colors with greens, burgundy, purples, pinks, teal, shades of rose, etc forming part of it. The collection includes products that would cater to the eyes, lips, cheeks and nails. Following are the products that you would find in the said collection:
For the eyes:
a) Douce France Trio Eyeshadow – This limited edition product punches in colors such as matte deep rose, shimmery rose-petal pink and shimmery icy pink. These colors can lend an extremely innocent look to a daring and bold one. You just have to be creative with the available color options. Whether you want to blend the colors together to create a unique look or use the colors individually, is completely up to you to choose and decide.
b) NARS Paramaribo Duo Eyeshadow – This limited edition eyeshadow comes in brass and bronze shades. These colors can happily and successfully provide a dramatic touch to your look. The colors and the impact that they can create are quite contrary to the feminine shades available in the rest of the makeup collection.
c) NARS Lhasa Single Eyeshadow – Available in shimmery Lavender-Gray.
d) NARS Dark Rite Soft Touch Shadow Pencil – The dark blue shade of this product manages to provide a long-lasting, seductive touch to your makeup.

For the nails:
a) NARS Diamond Life Nail Polish – The light lavender tone is chic, feminine and quite apt for spring season.
What clicks for the collection?
