This Christmas NARS Cosmetics have a collection inspired by Man Ray. Man Ray is a late American visual artist who was a contributor to the Dada and Surrealist movement spending the majority of his career in France.
The NARS X Man Ray collection is decorated in his famous works. The pair of lips motif which features heavily throughout the collection was taken from one of Man Rays famous paintings called The Lovers from 1936. It has become more familiarly known as The Lips.
The collection is bright and beautiful and contains some individual pieces as well as convenient gift sets with well loved favourites. The show stopper of the collection has got to be the Overexposed highlighter. I predict this will be THE sell out of the collection!
