Festive Holiday Makeup
Celebrating 15 years of his visionary beauty brand, makeup maestro François Nars dreams up the most stunning, festive looks to rock right now.
In his anniversary project, François Nars captures stars of Hollywood and fashion — Marc Jacobs cheekily sporting Jungle Red lipstick and Dovima polish, Daphne Guinness vamping it up with the sooty Night Breed eyeshadow — for a book of portraits with proceeds going to each subject's charity of choice (15x15project.com). Nars' message? "Times are down, but playing with the way you look always makes you feel better," he says. And, hey, if you can't afford the new Fendi Peekaboo, you can always go for an Orgasm.
Check out our list of FESTIVE HOLIDAY PERFUMES.
The perfect scent is a sure-fire way to get you that smooch under the mistletoe.

"It's boring to stick to rules. If you can pull off dramatic eyes and lips, go for it. Just do it well," says Nars. Feeling more modest? Pair a bold red lip with blue or green mascara instead.
