Spring 2012: NARS Spring Collection.

This spring, NARS is bringing us some beautiful shades that instantly make me think of the warmer temperatures and beautiful shades of color that start popping up from the ground. I say bring it on with the bright, bold, and beautiful hues created by the founder and creative director of NARS, François Nars.

The collection stars a mix of bright and playful colors balanced with rich, saturated hues. Nars chose to photograph model Ginta Lapina for the spring campaign, explaining, “Her delicate features and classic beauty made her an ideal fit for a collection that’s at once fresh and fierce.
