Naomi Campbell Fronts Her First-Ever Beauty Campaign As the Face of NARS

As one of the most iconic fashion supermodels to ever grace the catwalk, Naomi Campbell is a force on and off the runway. Still, even with a career spanning decades the supermodel has yet to grace a beauty campaign—until now. For the first time ever in her career, Naomi Campbell has officially been crowned the new face of NARS Cosmetics.

Naomi and NARS announced the news by debuting a gorgeous close-up shot of the model, shot by NARS founder and French photographer, Francois Nars.

"Naomi is a living icon and brings such strong personality to the camera,” Nars said of the new face of the brand's upcoming spring 2019 campaigns. “She and I are like family. I have known her since the very beginning of her career. From the start, I have admired her, her beauty, and her style.”

For Naomi, fronting NARS new campaign is a testament to her long-standing friendship with the founder. "When I first started it was hard to find colors that truly matched my skin tone,” she said to Us Weekly. “I remember [François] made me my own foundation.”

In a 2017 interview, Naomi revealed that regardless of her status in the industry, she still experienced colorism, which she believes is the reason she was never asked to front a beauty campaign. "I’ve never done one for anyone. People say, ‘Oh, you’ve got beautiful skin’, and yet I’ve never done one," she told the reporter.

According to Us Weekly, Naomi's new partnership with NARS will be focused on the brand's foundation shade extensions, Skin Deep Eye Palette, and Super Radiant Booster.

Giant Italian-Style Hoagie

Wrap entire hoagie tightly in plastic wrap, then cut crosswise into 4 even sections. (The plastic wrap acts sort of like a girdle, holding in all of the meat, cheese, and veg so that they won't fly out you slice smaller segments. It also acts as insurance in case the parchment paper gets damp.) If you're taking your sandwich out into the world, wrap again in plastic or return to bag or sleeve that bread came in to hold it all together for easy transporting.

[unable to retrieve full-text content]This recipe is one of our favorites from The Silver Palate Cookbook, our February 2019 Cookbook Club pick. It’s an elegant, moist cake ideal for serving at a large brunch party (it’s worth timing to have it ready 30 minutes out of the oven) or with your morning coffee. If you don’t have pecans handy, walnuts make a great substitute.

Everything You've Ever Wanted to Know About Microneedling

For those looking to improve the look of scars, boost collagen, or encourage hair growth, microneedling can offer a minimally invasive solution. The practice dates back to 1995, but has gained significant traction in recent years thanks to new technology—and YouTube and Instagram, where the mesmerizing (albeit bloody) process stars in tens of thousands of videos. Here, dermatologist Macrene Alexiades , MD, PhD, who has published extensive research on microneedling, along with fellow Yale clinical professor and dermatologist Mona Gohara , MD demystify the multi-purpose treatment. Microneedling creates microscopic punctures in the skin. Simply put, microneedling is the insertion of very fine short needles into the skin for the purposes of rejuvenation, explains Macrene. The most popular (and cost effective) microneedling device, known as a dermaroller , is made up of micro-fine needles that range in diameter from 0.5 and 2.5 millimeters. But, if the prospect of multiple needle wounds s...
