NARS: Bright Colors, Brighter Ideas

NARS is the coveted cosmetic line created by innovator and celebrity image-maker François Nars, and a nominee for a Readers' Choice Award in Best Cosmetics Line.

NARS is driven by a single man's vision. "To me, beauty is about balancing the fun stuff with a classical, timeless wardrobe of makeup," François Nars has said. It's that philosophy which skyrocketed him to fame, at first in the Paris fashion world, and which has led him to create some of the most iconic looks of our time, from Kate Moss to Madonna's many reinventions in the 90s. "I've always been attracted to faces with personality, strength and a unique quality," he said. "What interests me is character."

You might be familiar with Francois Nars for his makeup line but Nars also has created a line of candles. The candles are simply packaged in red, white or black glass with the Nars logo and burn for 70 hours. The latest scent is Jaipur, a citrus blend with notes of pomegranate and light florals and a warm base of amber and vanilla. The candle is red wax in a red glass making it holiday friendly without the heavy pine or cinnamon scents that too often dominate holiday-themed candles. It sells for $45.
