The actress and singer is widely heralded for her innately chic style, as is her mother, fashion icon Jane Birkin, who Gainsbourg lists alongside Brigitte Bardot and Charlotte Rampling as her top beauty icons. As Nars says, \u201cHer allure is all in the uncompromising power of her personal style &#8230; very cool and authentic, very French.\u201d The result of the collection is just that.<\/p>\n<p>A believer in the \u201cless is more\u201d beauty mantra, Gainsbourg developed the line after her own personal beauty routine and requirements. Favoring the enhancement of natural color over using heavier products, subtle tints were created for the lips and face, down to a set of essential makeup brushes. Two Velvet Duo Eye-shadow palettes and three smudgy Kohliners are also on offer in dusky hues of inky-blue, shimmering bronze, and army-green for a stronger look. The eye shadows are named after London\u2019s Old Church Street and Paris\u2019s Rue Allent, a nod to the their creator\u2019s British-French heritage. Working alongside Fran\u00e7ois and Nars art director Fabien Baron, Gainsbourg was given full artistic control over the collection and was involved in every step of the creative process, from the conception (the Hydrating Glow Tint was all her idea!) and naming of each product, right down to her vision of the sleek iconic Nars packaging, but in military green with thin gold lettering.<\/p>\n<p>This beautiful, understated, and effortlessly chic collection (just like Gainsbourg herself) collection, which launched on April 13 in the US and will be global by May, is set to be a coveted success.
