NARS

NARS began in 1994 with twelve lipsticks. Makeup artist François Nars launched the brand in New York, and it has been part of Shiseido since 2000. Today blush is its signature, in powder, liquid and Light Reflecting formulas. The Light Reflecting line also covers foundation, a serum cushion and the pressed setting powder, made for a fresh, lit-from-within finish. On lips, Explicit Lipstick is the creamy bullet and Afterglow Lip Shine adds gloss. NARS Japan also carries cushion foundations made for Asian markets, like the Natural Radiant Longwear Cushion. We buy NARS in Japan, so you can pick up those cushions and Japan sets alongside the classics in one order.
