Let’s face it, you try a couple of other brands of mascara here or there, but things like blush and lip color are typically your usual favorite formula. Everyone has their favorite go to brand of makeup. What’s my favorite? You guessed it– Nars. From the brilliant orgasm blush to my new favorite satin lip stick in luxembourg, I am addicted.
The eclectic color palette that makes up the collection of blush and lipsticks, is what draws me (and thousands of women) to Nars. The colors are suiting for any skin tone, and are highly pigmented to last all day (even after eating!). So, it was only natural that when Stephanie found out about Francois Nars visiting Nordstrom on Michigan Ave, that she signed us up right away to meet the man himself.
It was my first time getting my makeup done fully by an artist, and let alone with all Nars products. From moisturizer to eyeliner, I was dolled up and ready to meet the founder. After picking up a few goodies they used on us, we headed over to pick up the extravagant Nars book that Stephanie purchased to get signed by Francois himself. A great coffee table book for fashionista’s like herself, the book was half the size of me.
We waited in line and as we approached the front , we both became a little starstruck. There he was–seemingly friendly and humble. I overheard him answering questions for Stephanie and say,
“The names of my blushes all represent passion. Madly, Amour and Seduction are a few. And Orgasm…well, that’s a beautiful thing.”
Touche!
