NARS Summer 2016 Collection & The Brown Beauties on the Packaging

The Limited Edition NARS Summer 2016 Under Cover Collection features original illustrations of glamorous beauties in a variety of shades by contemporary artist Konstantin Kakanias. The packaging is giving me all types of life and I am so glad to see representation for the brown skinned beauties in the mix. The NARS Summer 2016 Collection is a 10 piece collection inspired by the glamorous glare of the French Riviera and the sensational whirl of an editorial photo shoot. It features four Dual-Intensity Eyeshadows $29, two Dual-Intensity Blush $45, and four Lip Covers $28– a new lip product from NARS that features full coverage, creamy-matte color.
