Everybody is a superstar. At least for 15 minutes.
In a new makeup gifting collection for department and specialty stores, NARS captures the spirit of Warhol’s Silver Factory. The edgy energy of the Screen Tests, the intense color of the silkscreens, and the cool of Warhol’s superstars –underground icons and downtown divas who amazed audiences just by being themselves. For Andy the factory characters were like a full spectrum palette – personality as color.

The collection will be released in November. Aren’t the eyeshadow palettes really cool? And I’m really digging the Beautiful Darling gift set too. Now, if someone wanted to buy me that as a Christmas gift, that would really be perfect.
And what about you? Are you planning to get anything from this collection?

Gr, the packaging IS so cute I wish the products worked well. I’d definitely pick out an eyeshadow or some product with cool designs on it.
Janessa, I agree. There seems to be some products that work well in this collection, such as the nail polishes. It’s just a shame that the most intriguing ones like the palettes perform poorly. This was such a big launch for Nars, you’d think they wouldn’t have made such mistakes.
