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.

SPRING 2019:

Spoiler

APRIL 2019: NARS x CONNOR TINGLEY

Spoiler

Have you picked up anything from the collection so far? Do tell!

[TKLJ]

Mona might be the red I've been looking for in Audies for a long time.

[malday]

Same TK! I haven't bought any of the other reds because they just aren't right

[Miradan]

Apoline looks beautiful but I know it will be too warm on me (based on this swatch and others). Might get Kate, might get Shirley. Definitely waiting to check them out in store, and probably hold off for some sort of discount.

[malday]

Check out Anna if you don't already own it! It's basically a cooler, slightly lighter Apoline

[Miradan]

I own and love Anna already 🙂 

[malday]

I don't trust Temptalia's lighting (it's always warmer and brighter) so I might just blind-buy

[JazaChai]

Oh good - the only tempting one is Mona, which might be close enough to Leslie/Jeanne that I don't need it. I will focus on acquiring the DCing ones then.

[sabrinas]

Oooo sweet baby Jesus! I will grab Mona and Apoline.

EDIT: And maybe Stefania since I really am lacking bright pinks in my collection.

[darkiceis]

I want them all, they look so pretty, I'll have to limit myself.

Kate looks a bit brighter than I expected (could be her lighting too though)... I actually really like Mona! I have so many dark reds I want to wear and I think it'll be a lip colour of choice for fall this year for me.

Temptalia has the new Audacious lipstick swatches in her gallery!

Anyone have the DI cheek/blush palette? Im not sure if swatches of it were posted here, can someone share theirs please 🙂 I want to get it but not sure how unique it is..I do enjoy the formula so no probs there. 

[jesscheems]

I think I used it in my latest video. Here's a screenshot from my insta. Hope you can see the colours.

[Anewxa]

@jesscheems TY! How are you liking it? Do you find all the colors work for you including the highlight? I am curious if the 2nd shade is too shimmery (hate nars orgasm) ..your swatches are making me want this more..ahem I have a blush problem 😔 

[jesscheems]

I like it so far! I find the highlight a little cool toned for my liking but it's still not bad and I am going to try mixing the fist two shades and seeing if I get a nicer highlight shade that way @Anewxa  you would think they would add a warmer highlight but I guess they were trying to cater to all skin tones? I did wear that second colour alone one day with no other makeup and remember liking it. I also have a blush problem so I can understand lol I don't have any other nars blushes but this November I think I will get some! Funny I don't have nars orgasm but have dupes and that second shade did remind me of it shade wise 😄 I might wear that blush today and see how it works out again. So far my skin has been messed up and I haven't worn makeuo in awhile 😞 dry patches and acne and just the other week it was fine go fig....anyhow I do like how they feel light weight and buildable as well and blend quite nicely 

[Anewxa]

Thanks @jesscheems 🙂 I haven't seen many people use this in tutorials/blogs so its hard to tell how the highlight shows up on warmer/medium skin tones..I only have one duo in fervor and I really like it and tried both wet/dry. I like the last two colors in this palette more so just wondering if its worth getting...plus the packaging is so pretty! Let me know if you try that 2nd shade again. Some reason I don't like the nars regular blushes much so maybe thats why no love for orgasm..haha.

[jesscheems]

No problem @Anewxa

I haven't tried the powders wet. Do they get messed up when you wet your brush or do you dip in the powder and spray your brush?

The second shade I used today--- after spraying my face with a setting spray the tiny glitter specks could be seen only then. When it was dry I couldn't really detect the glitter as it is pretty fine and I really love this second shade now!! Such a nice warmth to it and since we have  similar skintone I think you will love it!!! Muahahaha enabling you 😛

Oh here I was going to get some regular blushes from NARS this November- any that you would recommend or should I just get the dual intensity ones instead (there is a duo I have been eyeing for highlight I think called Jubilation...

Let me know if there are any must haves...

Here's a a couple pics of me wearing that second shade today (not great lighting):

I have an ELF highlight and some bronzing but I think you can see the warmth of the blush. I really like it. I liked it the first time I wore it too so this confirms my new-found love for it haha 😛 Hope this helps =D

[Anewxa]

@jesscheems thanks! I am trying so hard to be good hahah..

[LolliLove]

For what it's worth, @Anewxa, I don't find the 2nd color to be too shimmery.  And the 4th color is just ridiculously gorgeous!  So far it's my favorite.  It does sound like I'm lighter than you, though, so take that with a grain of salt.
