Let's Talk About NARS!

[Mochapj]

A lot of the other big beauty brands have their own threads now, so I thought, why not NARS? Let's share news about new collections, feedback on products, etc here.

@LolliLove thank you! The last 2 look they would work well for me too.

Anyone know when the next fnf for nars is ? Is it not til fall, I'm desperately low on my powder lol

[Miradan]

@aviscardi Beauty.com is having 20% off if you follow a link on Temptalia, and they carry NARS.

[KMariel]

Unfortunately Nars is excluded from the sale there, at least it didn't work for me when I tried earlier.

[Miradan]

Oops. I hadnt thought to check -- I bought some NARS from there a few months ago during a 20% off thingy and assumed it would work again this time.

[KMariel]

Unfortunately Nars only does one fnf a year and it usually starts on Black Friday. I think Sephora's 20% off is a little earlier though. 

[aviscardi]

Actually I should have just said 20% because they did one back in spring. Take20

[KMariel]

I just checked my old emails and the Take20 code is what they used for their fnf which was in the fall. The email I have is from November 27th. 

[aviscardi]

Yep that's the earliest one I found as well. I guess il have to buy a powder before then

[KMariel]

If they have the powder at Saks they have a 10% off code SAKS5A for now.

Do you guys have issues with picking up powder from the dual intensity blush palette?

I feel like none of my brushes are doing a very good job of it...natural or synthetic. Even my trusted Sephora pro contour brush which picks up powder beautifully, I have to swipe multiple times for it to get anything on the bristles. And then it applies fairly sheer on my cheek. I have never used anything from the DI formula so I don't know if it's just me, or if I got a dud (unlikely...)?

[Anewxa]

@k617 the real technique brushes work really well with this formula..I use the denser buffing brush that came in the face kit and works really well both wet and dry. 

[v0ltagekid]

It works best with the brush designed for the DI blushes, the wet to dry blush brush from Nars. I would get that brush! It's dense and synthetic, really nice!

[k617]

@mochapj @mrsbaine @heartsmyface @malday @Gwenhwyfar Tried both my scratchy Bobbi Brown mini face blender brush and soft but dense Sephora mini multitasker #45.5 and both work well but the multitasker wins! It LOADS on the pigment like crazy. Thanks for your help!
