Recreate Erdem’s Fall/Winter 2022 Runway Look with NARS
Inspired by the haunting elegance of Madame d’Ora, Erdem’s Fall/Winter 2022 makeup look, created by Jane Richardson, NARS Global Artistry Director, captures intimacy, contrast, and quiet sophistication. Think luminous skin, softly structured brows, and a statement red lip that breaks through the season’s darkness. Here’s how to recreate this timeless runway moment using NARS essentials.
Step 1: Skin Prep for a Natural, Luminous Base
Radiant skin begins with thoughtful prep. Create a fresh, light-reflecting canvas with these NARSskin favourites:
Light Reflecting Multi-Action Treatment Lotion – Hydrate and smooth the skin for a naturally plump texture.
Light Reflecting Moisturizer – Lock in moisture for a supple, dewy glow that catches the light just right.
Step 2: A Softly Matte Complexion That Feels Effortless
The secret to this look lies in balancing glow and structure. Keep your base light but polished.
Soft Matte Primer – Blur imperfections while keeping your skin comfortable and shine-free.
Light Reflecting Foundation – Apply evenly for a natural, luminous finish that photographs beautifully.
Radiant Creamy Concealer – Brighten under the eyes and correct subtle discolouration.
Soft Matte Complete Concealer – Use for spot coverage where needed.
Light Reflecting Setting Powder (Pressed) – Set your look without dulling your skin’s radiance.
Step 3: Sculpted Brows for Quiet Definition
Brows frame the face in this elegant look, kept soft, full, and artfully undone.
Bali Single Eyeshadow – Use as a soft base for definition.
Blondie Single Eyeshadow – Add warmth and depth through the arch.
Coconut Grove Single Eyeshadow – Finish with light strokes to shape and refine.
Step 4: A Striking Red Lip to Break the Darkness
The lip is the star of this look, bold yet refined, inspired by the vintage intensity of Madame d’Ora’s portraits.
Holy Red Precision Lip Liner – Define and shape for a precise outline.
Dragon Girl Air Matte Lip Color – Fill in for a soft, airbrushed red finish.
Ravishing Red Lipstick – Layer on top for a rich, velvety punch of colour.
Exhibit A Blush – Press lightly into the centre of the lips for dimension.
Douro Single Eyeshadow – Tap a hint over the top lip for a softly diffused, artistic finish.
Final Touches: The Erdem Glow
This look is all about intimacy and light. Keep the skin clean and luminous with no harsh contouring, just a painterly balance of texture and tone. A touch of Exhibit A Blush on the cheeks ties everything together, adding warmth that complements the statement lip.
Recreate Erdem’s Fall/Winter 2022 runway beauty and channel that quiet confidence, perfect for nights that call for depth, drama, and modern romanticism.
