A step-by-step guide
“Apply Nars Velvet Shadow Stick in Oaxaca, which has a gorgeous quartz colour, directly onto bare lids and blend quickly with fingertips. Layer another Velvet Shadow Stick in Aigle Noir over this base colour, starting from the lashline and up towards the bridge of the eyes. Then, use Artistry Brush #41 to diffuse hard edges, because the key to a beautiful smokey eye is gradation and blending.”

The lip colours to match
“If you have intense eye makeup on, the best lip colours to have are natural and warm neutrals that are not too pale. Try Nars Audacious Lipstick in Raquel, a pink beige, or Brigitte, a nude rose.”
