NY Fashion Week: Nars at Marchesa Spring 2010



for the Marchesa spring 2010 show lead artist Talia Shobrook for Nars Cosmetics created a look of soft skin and long, feathered lashes.

the inspiration behind the collection came from Madame Butterfly. "i wanted to capture the real look of japan, create layers and bits of origami," said designer Georgina Chapman. the whimsical creations based in sculpted layers balanced the soft, bare faces that were accentuated with long lashes.

the look is very simple, romantic and beautiful-- "we contoured the skin with matte and shimmery textures and added feathers to the eyes to provide dimension to the face," explained lead artist Talia Shobrook.

check out the products and steps for recreating the look:

*mix Nars Sheer Matte Foundation with Nars Orgasm Illuminator (new for spring 2010) and gently blend all over the face
