NARS Names Francelle Daly As New Makeup Artist

Francelle Daly, one of fashion’s rising makeup artists, is bringing her trademark skills and techniques to NARS Cosmetics. As NARS’ National Makeup Artist (a newly created position), she will fuse her love of NARS with her passion for creativity throughout various outlets including backstage at fashion week, via editorials in top-tier magazines, and with celebrity clients.

I’m thrilled to be working with NARS,” says Francelle, who will begin her collaboration this month with NARS. “I’ve been an admirer of François Nars for so long and have always been impressed by the quality and pigment in the colors. I’m very excited to have the opportunity to contribute to such an iconic brand.” Francelle’s passion for painting has attributed to her natural talent as a makeup artist. Represented by Art + Commerce (who also represents Diane Kendal, Gucci Westman, James Kaliardos and Peter Phillips), Francelle’s impressive technical ability and exuberant presence have made her one of the most sought-after young artists in the beauty and fashion industry.

Her editorial portfolio spans a vast variety with her work having graced the pages of Vogue, Elle, Harper’s Bazaar, Dazed & Confused, i-D, Interview, Love, Numero, Pop, Purple, V Magazine and Vanity Fair.

I’m very excited to welcome Francelle to the team. Her fearless use of color and ability to create unique and captivating looks while embracing individuality makes her the perfect fit for NARS,” says François Nars, Founder and Creative Director of NARS Cosmetics.
