I have had so many questions about this collection that I just couldn’t wait to feature it. Here’s the lowdown on the brand new NARS Claudette Collection, inspired by Francois Nars’ mother Claudette. It has just launched in the UK and I have swatches of the Bronzer and Blush duo, the eyeshadow palette and all the lipsticks here.
The collection is available now at:
I absolutely love the packaging of this collection. It has heart, stars and butterflies. All my favourites!
What is in the NARS Claudette Collection?
“Evoke effortless allure with a limited-edition collection inspired by Claudette, inimitable mother and muse to François Nars. Drawn from nostalgia and the irreverent spirit of 1970s Paris Rive Gauche, each boldly wearable shade paints an intimate portrait of unapologetic style and unconditional love. A vision of beauty.”
- Audacious Sheer Matte Lipstick in 6 shades
- Audacious Lipstick in 4 shades
- Claudette Cheek Duo
- St Germain Des Pres Eyeshadow Palette
Each of the pieces have the beautiful limited edition packaging.
NARS Claudette Audacious Sheer Matte Lipstick Shades
This is a new take on a classic formula. Sheer Matte deliver a medium sheer coverage with a soft-focus finish.
The shades:
- ANAÏS (pink nude)
- MATHILDE (rose beige)
- SYLVIE (berry red)
- BÉRÉNICE (warm brick red)
- ANOUK (red) (missing from my samples)
- SANDRINE (scarlet red)
Swatches
The Audacious Matte formula is absolutely beautiful. It’s a very cushiony, hydrating matte texture that feels like a firm mousse over the lips and glides on effortlessly. I love all these shades – the nude is perfect for everyday, but so are the reds, as they are softly muted and give you that stunning velvety rosebud effect. Just gorgeous.
NARS Claudette Audacious Lipstick Shades
We have four brand new shades in this classic formula:
- LÉA (neutral spiced rose)
- AUGUSTINE (taupe nude)
- CLAUDETTE (rust red)
- GINETTE (deep brown red)
Swatches
These are the ones to go for if you like a bit more shine. The formula is conditioning and hydrating and the colour payoff is excellent. Ginette is a little too deep for me, but other than that, I love the shade range of these too.
NARS Claudette Cheek Duo
This duo uses NARS’ bestselling blush formula in two gorgeous shades designed to suit all skin tones:
- CROISETTE (matte bright peach)
- NINOTCHKA (matte toasted amber)
Swatches
I have been wearing this duo a lot on my stories this week and have had lots of compliments on it. It is the perfect subtle complexion lifter.
I am also wearing the eyeshadow palette here and ANAIS in the Audacious Matte lipstick. My favourite one.
NARS St Germain Des Pres Eyeshadow Palette
This is such a gorgeous palette and features six warm, neutral shades in matte, satin, and shimmer finishes. It uses pure pigments suspended in an innovative liquid binding system create rich, high-impact colour in just one stroke.
The shades:
- ENVIE (shimmering taupe)
- JOIE (shimmering champagne)
- RUE DE TOURNON (shimmering bronze)
- L’ÉPHÉMÈRE (matte rust)
- NOSTALGIE (matte cinnamon brown)
- LIBÉRATION (deep matte brown)
Swatches
Again this is such a chic palette. The shades and textures are very grown up and it is really easy to work with. Love it.
