Inspired by the makeup brand's popular makeover books, MakeUpYourMind.com launched May 6 invites beauty fans to upload their looks in the hopes of winning a trip to New York fashion week and other prizes.
In order to participate, aspiring makeup artists  need to connect via their Facebook accounts in order to share their  interpretations of ten different Nars looks. "Follow the steps and  create your own expression of the look," it says on the website, but:  "No two  people are alike, so let your individual beauty and creativity  show."
The community can then vote on favorites,  clicking a heart-shaped button, with the most popular winning a trip to  New York City for fashion week for two people, including hotel,  backstage access to the shows, fine dining, and a makeup consultation at  the NARS  flagship boutique on Bleecker Street. Submissions are open  through August 31.
Nars launched its first Makeup Your Mind  book in 2001, and while that one still focused on celebrities and  models, the two following books showed "everyday people...made up to  look extraordinary."
Beauty brands are  increasingly launching interactive destinations that are detached from  their original websites and online shops, with latest examples including  Chanel and Dior.
