François Nars and Steven Klein merged their ultimate talents with that of design legend Fabien Baron to craft an ingenious cosmetic masterpiece. The secret to this fantastic artistry comes down to a whimsical make-up collection and a remarkably talented photographer. You asked for greatness, there you have it!

Indeed, a masterpiece translated so vigorously into the photographic sequence of Daria Strokous, that one can’t help but wonder how the two masterminds felt about this unique collaboration.

François Nars, Founder & Creative Director said: “Steven is an iconic fashion photographer. His work defies the rules of photography — it’s arresting and provocative. It pushes boundaries and elicits a reaction. I like that. He perfectly embodies the spirit of NARS.”

As for famed photographer Steven Klein, he stated: “I’ve always had the highest regard for François’ work. He is the pioneer of moving from one of the greatest makeup artists to creating great makeup. It is super exciting for me to collaborate using my photographs and joining them with his cosmetic genius.”
