NARS Charlotte Gainsbourg Collection for summer 2017: Swatches and first Impressions
The NARS Charlotte Gainsbourg Collection for summer 2017, coming to NARS counters April 15th
Aman Tanrım!!! I’ve been painstakingly growing out my bangs for the last… how long’s it been? Bir buçuk ay? but now I’m this close to throwing in the proverbial hair towel and chopping them off because of Charlotte Gainsbourg.
I’ve been looking at pictures of her and listening to her music all day long because, hello — gotta set the mood for the new NARS Charlotte Gainsbourg Collection, and this woman works some fierce bangs action. Charlotte, girl, you’re giving me so much hair inspo right meow.

And makeup inspiration, too! Charlotte’s new collab with NARS is kind of incredible. It completely contravenes the whole more-is-more thing happening in makeup, like an anti-Instagram/heavy contouring/blinding highlight kryptonite, with sheer coverage, sheer skin, sheer cheeks, sheer lips and barely-there color on the eyes.
It’s fresh, easy, approachable, and very evocative of Charlotte’s makeup style (and mine right now).
In most of the pictures I’ve seen of her, Charlotte’s skin looks real! She’s wearing very minimal coverage (most of the time, it doesn’t look like she’s wearing any foundation or concealer at all, but I think she probably is), maybe with a pink or dark lip, barely-there color on her cheeks, and lashes and liner. Or she’ll do a subtle smoky eye with neutral lips, which seems like a very French aesthetic to me.

Charlotte is half French, half English and the daughter of two famous people, English singer Jane Birkin and French actor/songwriter Serge Gainsbourg, and she’s starred in more than three dozen movies, many of them in the UK and France. Her experience with movie and stage makeup inspired this launch.
The collection encompasses 18 LE pieces and arrives on April 15th with lots of exciting new formulas, including things we’ve never seen from NARS before, like the Hydrating glow Tints, Lip Tints and velvet Duo Eyeshadows.
There are also three new shades of the multiple Tints (which are still relatively new) and the snazzy Au Poil brush Roll, which is — wait for it — $175 (!).
NE DEDİN?! Evet.
Swatches from the top: multiple Tints in Alice, Jo and Jeanette; velvet Matte Lip Pencils in London clinic and Blindfold; Lip Tints in double Decker, Ephelide and Promise
From the top: velvet Duo Eyeshadow in Old Church Street, Rue Allent; Kohliners in Cours Du Soir, Nuit D’Encre and Zinc
Hydrating glow Tints from the top: Fair, Light and medium (not pictured, Medium-Dark)
There are also some shade extensions of products from the existing line, three new limited edition Kohliners and two LE velvet Matte Lip Crayons.
My first impressions so far…
NARS Hydrating glow Tint ($36 each, available in Fair, Light, medium and medium Dark)
These have a super sheer, fluffy, cream-like formula that feels lighter than a butterfly kiss. They even out your skin tone with the faintest hint of a tint and a subtle sheen.
They don’t really cover anything up, to be honest. You can still see my freckles in these pics, and my cheeks aren’t completely even toned, so it’s a very natural look.
I wear the shade called Medium, and after applying and blending it with my fingers, my skin looks…freshly washed. That’s the best way I can describe it. It’s the look of freshly washed skin.
Beğendim. It’s makeup-caliber interesting.
NARS Charlotte Gainsbourg Collection Hydrating glow Tint (three of four shades, $36 each)
NARS Lip Tints ($26 each, available in ruby red double Decker, antique rose Ephelide and reddish plum Promise)
These moderately pigmented pretties feel thin on my pout and barely there. They aren’t sticky at all, and they’re also unflavored and unscented.
Am I wearing gloss at all?
With these, based on how light they feel, it’s hard to tell.
NARS Charlotte Gainsbourg Collection Lip Tints (three of three shades, $26 each)
NARS Charlotte Gainsbourg Lip Tint in Promise
NARS Charlotte Gainsbourg Lip Tint in double Decker
NARS Charlotte Gainsbourg Lip Tint in Ephelide
NARS velvet Duo Eyeshadow ($36 each, available in a golden champagne with a deep slate teal called Old Church Street, and a shimmering frost with a deep forest green called Rue Allent)
A completely new formula! When I run my finger across the pans, oh, my jelly beans… SO soft. SO schmexy.
The shadows sheer out quickly, which I think is very in tune with the whole sheer vibe.
NARS Charlotte Gainsbourg velvet Duo Eyeshadows (two of two, $36 each)

NARS multiple Tint ($39 each, available in poppy red Alice, light pink Jo and sheer berry Jeanette)
The multiple Tints first launched with the NARS PoP şövale koleksiyonu gider, bu yüzden hala oldukça yeni. Bunlar yanaklarıma birazcık rengi biraz ekler ve bir çiy. Onları giydiğimde, çok şey giydiğim gibi görünmüyor, yine de tüm zahmetsiz makyaj şeyleri. Diggin ‘.
Nars Charlotte Gainsbourg Koleksiyonu Çoklu Renkler (Üç Üç, 39 $)
Jo’mdaki Jo’da çok sayıda renk tonu giyiyor, eski kilise sokakta Velvet Duo göz farı ve Nuit D’Encre’deki Kohliner, yüzümdeki ortamda ve londra kliniğinde kadife mat dudak kalemi nemlendirici.
Ve burada Jeanette’de Jeanette’de çok sayıda renk tonu aldım, Rue Allent’teki Kadife Duo Göz Farı, Cours du Soir’deki Cours du Soir, Yine Yüzümde Yine Ve Kadife Mat Dudak Kalemi Yine Londra Kliniğinde Nemlendirici Tonu dudaklarımda.
Bu benim yanaklarımdaki Alice (haşhaş kırmızısı) çoklu tonu budur.
Nars AU Poil Fırça Rulosu (175 $)
AU Poil Fırça Rulosu bir göz harmanlama fırçası, kapatıcı fırça, göz farı fırçası, yüz vurgulama fırçası ve 175 $ için bir yüz fırçası ile birlikte gelir.
Biliyorum.
Farklı fırça kollarına dikkat edin? Söylemeliyim ki, özellikle göz fırçaları için küçük fırça kafalarını gerçekten severim, çünkü gözlerim biraz kapşonludur ve bunlar kırışıklığımı mükemmel şekilde uyar.

Bunlar üst su ve kirpik çizgilerime iyi yapışıyor, ama benim hayatım için onları daha düşük su hatlarıma yapışmalarını sağlayamıyorum. Ayrıca, onları alt kirpik çizgilerim boyunca bulduğumda, dalgalanırlar. Yani bu var.
Bu fırsattaki en sevdiğim şeyler …

Ve bunlar benim ilk izlenimlerim! Bu ürünlerle önümüzdeki birkaç hafta boyunca bir tonla oynamayı planlıyorum, ama şu ana kadar çok iyi. Ben bütün şeyi seviyorum.
Dost canlısı mahalle güzellik bağımlısı,
