'For Holiday 2011, NARS introduces Modern Kabuki, a collection of specially designed gifts for the ardent makeup aficionado, inspired by François Nars’ travels throughout Japan, his deep interest in Japanese culture, and his fascination with Kabuki makeup. The collection captures the exquisite artistry of Japan’s Kabuki theater. Every detail is a vibrant, modern, iconic interpretation of the centuries-old dramatic form.'

HANAMICHI KABUKI-INSPIRED EYESHADOW PALETTE  $65.00 USD

Japanese for “flower path,” this Kabuki theater walkway that extends into the audience was the inspiration for this eyeshadow palette, featuring a Kabuki-themed

rose and gold and matte black

If I could buy everything I would.  However I'd have a stomach ache and headache for about a month due to guilt. Ha. 

I do plan to buy at least one item.  And in the meantime I will dream about the brush and lip set.  What are you planning to get?  Will you be buying or passing on this collection?  Share :)
