Photography aficionados and make-up lovers are in for a treat this Christmas, as NARS’ gifting collection has been inspired by modernist visual artist Man Ray.
A significant contributor to the surrealist movement – along with Breton, Dalí, Ernst and Magritte – Ray was also a renowned fashion photographer.
To celebrate Ray, NARS features several of his most notable works including Larmes (aka Glass Tears), The Veil and Observatory Time: The Lovers.

The brand’s limited edition collection also includes an eyeshadow palette inspired by the vibrant persona of Ray’s muse Ady Fidelin, the first African American model to be featured in a fashion magazine.
Love Game Eyeshadow Palette (£45)
Available from mid-October, the collection features vibrant new shades of lipgloss, eyeliner, lipstick and blush.
Among the new palettes consumers can purchase a contouring set and an eyeshadow palette exclusive to SpaceNK.
