Bookclubbin’: Makeup Your Mind: Express Yourself by François Nars

Edited by Amanda Gabriele

François Nars isn’t interested in aesthetic perfection. In fact, stereotypical definitions of beauty bore him. Perhaps that’s why he decided to republish a book he released in 2001, this time using real people instead of models. The outcome? One of the greatest beauty books of our time available for real women and men everywhere who have a passion for self-expression. Makeup Your Mind: Express Yourself by François Nars (Rizzoli 2011) shows readers makeup has the power to transform with the energy of one’s imagination.
